DiaStar Original Skeleton Watch R12162153

The Watch

Rado crafts sophisticated timepieces powered by cutting-edge technology. Combining decades of expertise and Swiss know-how, the brand continually pushes the boundaries of watchmaking to deliver the very best. Built to last, each creation uses robust materials and high-precision movements - and this DiaStar Original Skeleton Watch R12162153 is no exception. Designed for all genders, it features a tonneau case crafted in polished stainless steel with a Ceramos™ bezel. The case measures 38 mm in diameter and 11.90 mm thick. In a silver tone, it is fitted with a grey crown on the right side for adjusting the watch's functions. The dial is fully protected by a sapphire crystal that shields against shocks and scratches, topped with an anti-reflective coating for a clean, sharp read. Finally, this 133-gram model features a water resistance of 10 ATM, secured by a snap-back caseback with a transparent sapphire crystal opening.

The Dial

This dial conveys the time with effortless clarity. Crafted with care, it showcases a refined design. Its black bezel is lined by a minute track alongside baton hour markers in a gold tone. These time indicators are pointed to by two dauphine hands - like the markers, treated with Super-LumiNova for easy reading in the dark. They are joined by a slender seconds hand. The standout feature of this dial is its skeleton finish, which reveals the movement beneath and adds a dynamic energy to the overall look. As a signature touch, the brand places its name at 12 o'clock with the collection name opposite.

The Movement

This watch is powered by an in-house automatic movement - specifically the R808 caliber. Robust and reliable, it features 25 jewels that minimize friction and ensure precise hand tracking. This mechanism offers outstanding resistance to vibrations and delivers an impressive power reserve of 80 hours.

The Strap

This stunning bracelet dresses your wrist beautifully. Featuring brushed and polished links crafted in stainless steel, its silver tone complements any accessory with ease. It hugs the contours of your wrist for all-day, all-night comfort, and is secured by a deployant clasp for effortless wear.

Water Resistance

This model delivers water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - and it means business. Ready to join you in any aquatic adventure, from puddles to the pool, this timepiece handles splashes, showers, baths, and recreational swimming without breaking a sweat. That said, our Ocarat watch experts note that while this model is water-resistant, it is not suited for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend avoiding crown or pushbutton operation during submersion.
