Rado Captain Cook High-Tech Ceramic Skeleton

The Rado Captain Cook collection is a skilful blend of retro vibes and high-tech materials. Ok, it’s also available in more conventional stainless-steel or bronze but the high-tech ceramic models will always be a bit extra special. It displays Rado’s industry-leading know-how of the material and the brand’s ability to apply it to any style of watch. Within the last couple of years, we possess seen many interesting as well as cool combinations of colour and even bones models. Continuing from last year’s Chief Cook Such as high tech Ceramic Skeleton Limited Edition, Rado adds a new non-limited ‘gunmetal’ grey and gold-coloured model to the collection.

Rado is a master when it comes to ceramic applications in watches, and it shows in the high-tech hard case for this Captain Cook, finished in a cool dark grey color. This innovative material is extremely resilient to scratches and has a cold, tactile feel to it. The case is topped with a rose gold PVD-coated bezel having a plasma great ceramic insert matching the case. The overhead is also rose gold PVD coated. The size is a substantial 43mm across, and also 14. 6mm in height. A cool touch is the sloped angle of the bezel, with that domed sapphire crystal on top.

The actual sapphire amazingly dial is actually slightly tinted but still grants a view of the movement inside. It’s surrounded by a ring holding the hour indices and a gold-coloured minute flange. Time is shown with an large hour hand with a triangular tip, a sword-shaped moment hand along with a central seconds hand, all rose gold coloured and finished with Super-LumiNova. You can also catch the glimpse of the golden geartrain bridge on top of the movement.

Powering this new take on the fine ceramic Captain Prepare is the same movement as in the previous limited edition and the Rado True Square Skeletal system, namely the actual Rado Calibre R808. This is essentially a slightly reworked ETA movement done specifically for Scarso. It’s fitted with a Nivachron hairspring to improve magnetic resistance and has an energy reserve of 80 hours. It can be seen through the titanium caseback, as well as the skeletonized face of course. The new Rado Captain Cook Such as high-tech Ceramic Bones comes on any three-link bracelet with cleaned plasma excellent ceramic external links, polished titanium inner links and also a double-folding clasp.

When Swiss brand Raro, known for its pioneering work with ceramic watchcases in the 1980s, suddenly pivoted in 2017 to a reissue of a steel dive watch from the sixties, it was an unexpected hit with dive-watch fans, particularly those who like their faithful diver reissues. Since then, the brand has turned the Chief Cook some sort of pillar selection, adding larger editions as well as different colorways and components. Until now, however , the new generation looked very similar to its original ’60s inspiration.
