Pushing the boundaries of material technology and continually introducing the unexpected to Swiss watchmaking, Rado has gone from strength to strength. At Rado technology, innovation, high-tech materials and design combine to create luxury. Key milestones in Rado’s impressive history so far include the world’s first scratchresistant watch, pioneering high-tech ceramic in watchmaking, the monobloc injected ceramic case and the introduction of touch technology in a ceramic watch. The brand was also the first to use plasma high-tech ceramic. The latest collection shows Rado at its very best. Style and substance are the key to the future as Rado continues to create beautiful and eye-catching watches that will stand the test of time. Nothing gets in the way of Rado’s mission to discover, invent and innovate and the results are always impressive. RADO MATERIALS HIGH-TECH MATERIALS Only the best materials are approved to produce Rado watches. Hardness alone is not enough; innovation, durability and wearer comfort are just as important. HIGH-TECH CERAMIC In 1986 Rado pioneered the use of high-tech ceramic. Since then high-tech ceramic has played a pivotal role in Rado watches. They are durable and extremely versatile; in shiny and matt finishes of various colours shimmering smooth or ornate surfaces can be created. PLASMA HIGH-TECH CERAMIC Plasma high-tech ceramic gives a striking and mysterious metallic brilliance, without the use of any metal. The plasma carburising process is patented and is a form of modern alchemy. Gases activated at 20,000°C alter the composition of high-tech ceramic without affecting its essential properties. Although only the surface colour of the ceramic is changed as the warm grey metallic colour emerges from each piece, it will not fade over time, instead retaining its naturally scratch-resistant shine for years to come. HARDMETAL In 1962, Rado introduced the Rado DiaStar 1 to the watch market, the world’s first scratch-resistant watch. The secret of this creation? Hardmetal. Even today hardmetal remains an important aspect of Rado watches. Thanks to its exceptional hardness hardmetal is more durable than steel, gold and platinum and defies the marks of everyday life. SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL Sapphire crystal is used in all Rado watches. Convex, facetted or flat it underscores their dynamic profile and creates a seamless transition from the bracelet and case to the crystal. Rado’s innovative use of metallisation on the surface of the crystal lends additional distinction. HIGH-TECH DIAMOND Incomparable timeless brilliance. For decades Rado had envisaged making watches from a material as hard as natural diamond. As a result of painstaking research and use of cutting-edge nanotechnology the Rado dream became a reality. With its uniquely resistant diamond surface the Rado V10K achieves a hardness of 10,000 Vickers. RADO AND DESIGN 1986 RADO INTEGRAL 1990 RADO CERAMICA 1993 RADO SINTRA Design is an integral part of what Rado does, and is one of the reasons the brand has been recognised with 30 international design prizes. As a relatively young company in the watchmaking world, Rado has always focused on the outside of its products, choosing a range of unusual materials to make its watches which have since been adopted by numerous other brands. 2002 RADO V10K Since its beginnings Rado has aimed to create watches of long lasting beauty. From the first scratch-resistant watch in 1962, the mission evolved to find ever lighter, more durable scratch-resistant materials that could be easily shaped for use in watchmaking. From its first foray into the use of ceramic in 1986, Rado has developed the technology to produce new ground-breaking designs with matt finishes, in white or even plasma high-tech ceramic, which transforms white ceramic into a material with a metallic finish, without using any metal. In 2013 Rado introduced touch technology to ceramic watches and then in 2014 pioneered a ceramic touch watch with two time zones. Design is the cornerstone of the success of these ground-breaking pieces. 2009 RADO r5.5 2011 RADO TRUE THINLINE 2012 RADO HYPERCHROME 2013 RADO ESENZA CERAMIC TOUCH Rado : pioneer and leader in high-tech materials for watches. Design, innovation and technology have all gone hand-in-hand to create the iconic products for which Rado is known worldwide, with the company’s founders’ words “If we can imagine it, we can make it, and if we can make it then we will” still holding true today. RADO HYPERCHROME Seriously scratch-resistant, dangerously desirable The monobloc case of the ceramic watches in this new Rado family represents a breakthrough in technology as well as a step forward in design. Lightweight, extremely comfortable and eye-catching, the Rado HyperChrome is the ultimate every day all occasion timepiece.

The name Rado became synonymous with tennis and tennis fans were used to seeing corner clocks on TV and in newspaper reports. After a break, Rado returned to the world of tennis in 2012, initially sponsoring seven tournaments and recruiting a number of top ambassadors and friends of the brand. In 2014 Rado is the Official Time Keeper of 14 international tournaments, played on clay, grass and hard courts. Rado’s link with the world of tennis was originally inspired by the spirit of challenge. Challenges are important in the world of tennis as players use their strength and determination to push themselves to extremes to achieve their ultimate goal of victory. Rado, too, is no stranger to challenge and has always pushed traditional watchmaking boundaries to achieve what many believed was impossible. From high-tech ceramic to high-tech diamond, from the world’s first scratch-resistant watch to a ceramic watch case made in one single injected ‘monobloc’ piece, Rado has researched, developed and perfected its use of modern, innovative and ground-breaking materials. Dedication, determination and the will to succeed are in the DNA of the brand, making Rado the perfect partner for tennis. ANDY MURRAY Britain’s number one tennis player, Andy Murray, stands out from the crowd with his distinctive playing style and unrivalled tactical intelligence. He is the reigning Olympic men’s singles Champion and in 2012 won his first major : the US Open. In 2013 he became the first British man for 77 years to win Wimbledon. Andy Murray set out on his path to tennis success at the age of three. Impressive milestones of his junior career included wins at the prestigious Orange Bowl and US Open Junior tournaments. His transition to professional status gave Britain its first teenager in the top 100 for 30 years. He has won 28 career ATP titles and in 2011 became only the seventh player since 1968 to reach the semi-finals of all four Grand Slam tournaments in one year. Like Andy Murray, Rado has celebrated numerous breakthroughs and milestones. Andy Murray perfectly embodies this pioneering strength. 28 I RADO HYPERCHROME RADO HYPERCHROME I 29 R32260162 M, Automatic R32525152 XXL, Automatic R32525159 XXL, Automatic R32525179 XXL, Automatic R32525169 XXL, Automatic AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA Agnieszka Radwanska is one of the stars of the women’s game and has been a professional tennis player since 2006 when she was voted Most Impressive Newcomer on the WTA tour.
