Rado DiaStar Original | Scratchproof | Ceramos | Automatic | R12160303

The Promise of Enduring Beauty

In 1962, Rado redefined the purpose of a wristwatch by promising a surface that would not surrender to daily wear. The DiaStar Original remains a quiet rebellion against disposability—crafted to endure, designed to look pristine, and destined to be worn for decades rather than seasons.

The Foundations of a Lifelong Timepiece

• Reference Number: R12160303
• The Scratch-Proof Bezel and Sapphire Crystal: A high-tech Ceramos bezel pairs with a sapphire crystal featuring anti-reflective coating—two ultra-hard guardians against scratches and scuffs.
• The Robust Stainless Steel Case Body: Stainless steel construction with the DiaStar’s signature oval profile; 38.0 mm diameter, 12.1 mm thickness, and 10 bar (100 m) water resistance for daily assurance.
• The Reliable Swiss Automatic Movement: A self-winding Swiss calibre with a clear date display, chosen for steadfast performance and everyday ease.
• The Secure Clasp: Stainless steel bracelet with a secure fastening for confident, comfortable wear.

True luxury is the absence of worry. The DiaStar delivers exactly that—tangible resilience that frees you to live fully while your watch remains beautifully unmarked.

A Watch That Will Never Show its Age

The DiaStar Original stands as proof that purposeful innovation creates beauty that lasts. It is not merely owned; it is lived with—accumulating memories, not scratches—an heirloom-in-the-making that honors both its 1962 origins and your future.
