The Rado Diastar was first made over forty years ago, and was billed as the world’s first scratch resistant watch. Known for using unusual materials to achieve scratch-resistance and a unique style, Rado has always marched to the beat of a different drummer. See their Sintra Jubile for another watch featured on this site.
This watch is no exception to Rado’s philosophy — the name Ceramica reflects that case, band, and bezel material. This is industrial-strength ceramic, not the kind you’ve got in your kitchen. It provides extreme hardness and scratch resistance.
The crystal is anti-reflective and scratch-resistant sapphire. The movement is Swiss quartz. The look is pure Rado.
