Rado means ‚"wheel" in Esperanto - an international language whose foundations were laid in 1887 to unite speakers of different European languages. The brand is often referred to as the “Master of Materials”, this is because of the way they have revolutionised traditional watchmaking, by taking the lead in the industry by introducing high-tech ceramic, ultralight high-tech ceramic, colourful high-tech ceramic and Ceramos™ to their uniquely designed collections.
The Rado ‘Integral’ is an important part of Rado history; being the first watch to feature high-tech ceramic in 1986. Since then, the watch has been redesigned to follow the trends of the twentieth century whilst keeping the classic style and look from the 80’s, now with the added allure of diamonds.
Crafted with high-tech black ceramic, this Integral watch is highly scratch-resistant, giving the perfect luxury finish. The lightweight material warms to your body temperature, making the watch exceptionally comfortable for wearers. The added benefit of ceramic is that it is designed to reduce the possibility of an allergic reaction, which may be experienced with other materials.
The metallic shine of this timepiece is a result of a pioneering process used by Rado, plasma high-tech ceramic is forged in an oven at high temperatures. This transforms the finished white ceramic into a unique material without the use of any metal. Transforming the colour of the ceramic this process ensures the essential properties of the material are unaffected.
Powered with a Swiss Quartz movement the timepiece is slim and lightweight with a 31.5mm case. The black dial is complete with a date window at 6 o’clock and a contrasting gold PVD three-hand movement. The stunning dial also features four diamond set hour markers.
Presented on a black ceramic and gold-plated stainless-steel bracelet with a butterfly clasp fastening, this timepiece is also water resistant to 30-meters and comes with a Five-year international warranty and official watch box packaging.
