Rado: r5.5

Introducing the r5.5. The stunning new collection from Rado, the pioneers of the use of high tech ceramics in the watch making industry for more than 20 years. Unpretentious and unassuming. Drawing on its unrivalled knowledge of the material, Rado has produced a range of timepieces that are designed to become a part of who you are. Absolute comfort is the ultimate luxury.

Instinctive. Natural. A synthesis of two talents. A watch, all in high-tech ceramics, designed by Jasper Morrison. A true reflection of his signature style.

Integration of the forms has always been a preoccupation for Rado. Today again, with this wistful aesthetic model. A distinctive square silhouette with curved edges, of which the radius gave the collection its name.

Sensual. Sophisticated. The case exquisitely and expertly fuses into the bracelet and the links gradually reduce so it appears as one, perfectly hugging the wrist.

A chronograph reduced to the essential. Three hands, two counters, date at 3 o’clock, all lying under the flat sapphire crystal and activated through the gently curved rectangular ceramic pushers. The steel colored indexes and hands with white luminous sparkle together with the sunbrushed finish of the dial, a continuous entrancing and alluring play of light.

The basic models feature only the minimum, the fundamental. Three hands, date at 3 o’clock, gently lying under flat sapphire crystal and activated by the ceramic crown. The white luminous hands are brought to life by the stunning black sunbrushed dial. Captivating. Irresistible.

Deliberately only available in one size in black matt ceramics. Bold and definitive. A new design classic.
