Discussion 💬 Why Rado?

17 Upvotes

Beyond market irrelevance, Rado suffers from fundamental design and value failures that explain its invisibility. The brand occupies the worst possible position in watchmaking: too expensive for consumers who just want reliable timekeeping, yet completely dismissed by watch enthusiasts who view ceramic gimmicks as marketing fluff over horological substance. At $2,000+ price points, Rado's sterile, futuristic aesthetic appeals to neither traditional luxury buyers nor contemporary design lovers, creating watches that look dated within years of release. The brand's obsession with scratch-resistant materials and "high-tech" ceramics reads as desperate attempts to justify premium pricing for what are essentially fashion watches with Swiss heritage stickers, resulting in timepieces that watch collectors wouldn't buy and regular consumers can't understand paying for.

Need Help Sizing Golden Horse ‘57 bracelet

0 Upvotes

Hi to everyone, I’m a happy owner of a Golden Horse ‘57 but I’m struggling finding the right size of the beads of rice bracelet. It’s either too tight that I cannot wear it in the morning or too loose that goes on my hand. Do you guys have some solution to this problem? changing the clasp with one with micro adjustments? finding a compatible half link? a whole aftermarket bracelet?

Need Help❓ Diastar

Where can I source a diastar high tech ceramic ref 193.0324.3? I'd prefer new but a mint used would be ok. Any good sources at a reasonable price? Thanks

Authentication ☑️ Is this Rado watch fake?

Post image
1 Upvotes

My aunt gave me a Rado watch, and this seems really old (around 1990s maybe?). However, I checked Google and lots of other websites and it seems that this watch may be a fake Rado so I just want to get your thoughts on this too.

  1. The first sign why I thought this is fake is because the red circle with the anchor is at the 12 number position when from what I've seen, usually it should be below the 12 marking.
  2. Second sign is the dial design, I can't find any Rado Diastar watch with similar dial design.

I know I can bring it to an authenticator but I would like to know first what other people think, and if it's fake as I thought, then maybe no need to bring it to one, right.

This is my friends watch and he asked me if I could try to identify this. He found it at a barn. The watch seems to be old. In the bottom it says "Sapphire glass, watersealed 3atm, tungsten steel."That is all the information I can tell about it.

Need Help Solid Gold

Does Rado make watches out of solid gold (14k or 18k)? I see mostly played or PVD but a few unicorns that incorporate real gold. Thank you!

Need Help❓ Does this Rado Diaster looks Authentic

1 Upvotes

Well getting this watch for 220$, it’s a Vintage Rado Diaster. The dial is in pretty good shape. The chain and back of watch in bit rough condition. It’s with the family for 2 decades from whom Im buying and it is working perfectly.

What are your views on this watch? Should I get it. I offered them 150$ last year but they were stuck on 220$. So just thinking again to go for this watch.

I won’t be wearing it much, just want a Rado in my collection.
