Gray DiaStar Original 60-Year Anniversary Edition Watch R12163118

The Watch

The iconic Rado brand made its mark in the watchmaking world with timepieces as charming as they are durable, crafted with exceptional expertise and creativity. From its DiaStar Original collection comes the R12163118 watch, designed for all genders. Elegant and impeccably finished, it features a monochrome stainless steel cushion-shaped case measuring 12.30 mm thick with a 38 mm diameter. Coated with a layer of Ceramos™ and polished on its edges, it is fitted with a sleek silver crown on the right side to adjust the various dial functions. The surface is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with hexagonal facets, shielding the dial from everyday impacts. For worry-free wear, its snap-on case back ensures water resistance of 10 atmospheres.

The Dial

Clean and refined, this dial features everything you need to read the time in style. Its bezel is highlighted by green dot-shaped hour markers. At the center, three beautifully crafted hands display the hours and minutes in gray, with the hour and minute hands sharing the same tone. The slim seconds hand is easy to spot thanks to its slender profile. At 6 o'clock, the Swiss Made inscription appears in gray, followed by an elegant round date window. All dial elements feature a green Super-LumiNova coating, keeping the time readable in low-light conditions. Finally, the brand's iconic logo and name are displayed at 12 o'clock on a beautiful brushed finish.

The Movement

Powered by the legendary automatic movement, this timepiece delivers undeniable reliability and precision. Its in-house caliber R764 provides an impressive power reserve of 80 hours. It is also resistant to both vibrations and magnetic fields.

The Strap

Meticulously crafted, this bracelet is made from a woven Milanese mesh in stainless steel. Its elegant silver tone beautifully echoes the case for a cohesive look. It drapes flawlessly around the wrist, and its butterfly deployant clasp makes for easy, precise adjustments. It also comes with a second gray textile strap, letting you switch up your style in seconds thanks to the built-in easyclip system.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters. Yes, this is a genuinely water-resistant watch! Its sporty character makes it a perfect companion for any aquatic adventure. From puddles to the pool, this timepiece handles splashes without complaint. Showering, bathing, and recreational swimming are no problem. That said, our Ocarat watchmaking experts want you to know that while this model is water-resistant, it is not designed for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend avoiding use of the crown or pushers while the watch is submerged.
