The transparent case back reveals the movement in action - a true ode to watchmaking craftsmanship that will captivate connoisseurs. The domed sapphire crystal, treated with an anti-reflective coating, protects the dial while delivering optimal visibility of its details and aged finish. As a limited edition of 1,962 pieces, this timepiece is not only rare but enduringly desirable among serious collectors.

The Dial

Lose yourself in the aged white dial of the Captain Cook Over-Pole - the true centerpiece of this watch. The central steel hands feature a SuperLuminova coating, an essential innovation for precise time reading even after dark. Golden indices add depth and contrast to the dial, completing its timeless charm. A date window sits discreetly at the 3 o'clock position, delivering everyday functionality without disrupting the dial's visual symmetry. Catering to the worldly traveler, the black ceramic bezel is engraved with the names of cities from around the globe, embodying the cosmopolitan spirit of this watch. Every detail of the dial is designed to seduce and impress - blending vintage aesthetics with modern functionality - all protected by the domed sapphire crystal, uniquely resistant to scratches and reflections.

The Movement

At the heart of the Rado Captain Cook Over-Pole beats the Rado caliber 862, a Swiss manual-winding mechanical movement derived from the celebrated ETA 2804. Running at a frequency of 21,600 vph (3 Hz), this caliber delivers both precision and durability - a combination prized by fine watchmaking enthusiasts. One of its most impressive features is the 80-hour power reserve, providing sustained power over several days without the need for frequent winding.

The Strap

The bracelet of the Captain Cook Over-Pole is a testament to the marriage of resilience and luxury. Crafted in stainless steel with a yellow gold PVD finish, it reflects light in a way that amplifies the watch's golden radiance. The polished surface of the bracelet elegantly underscores the sophistication of this timepiece. The bracelet features an ingenious Easy-Clip system that allows for quick swapping with the included robust brown leather strap. It secures with a deployant clasp, offering both safety and ease of use.

Water Resistance

The water resistance of this timepiece meets the highest standards in watchmaking, offering protection up to 10 ATM - a theoretical depth equivalent to 100 meters. This capability is made possible by the screw-down case back and meticulously fitted gaskets that shield the movement from any water infiltration. This reliable protection ensures the watch's exquisite mechanics stay safe, giving adventurers total peace of mind - whether crossing continents or navigating everyday life.
