DIASTAR ORIGINAL SKELETON
Introduced in 1962, the first DiaStar and its space-age tungsten carbide case drew much industry attention. It was hugely original, not only in fabrication and mate- rials, but the watch blended early rocket-science styl- ings with a note of genuine elegance. The anniversary reissue in 2022 upgraded the case material to Rado’s own highly comfortable and resistant Ceramos™, as well as introducing a skeletonised design that puts the anthracite-grey R808 calibre in its finest light. The current line includes a grey as well as a yellow gold-coloured Ceramos™ model, with respective matching bracelets.
There is something simultaneously retro and modern in the DiaStar Original, said Ji Chang-wook.
