The Rado Jubilé stands as one of the Swiss manufacturer's most iconic creations — a refined fusion of avant-garde design and pioneering material technology that helped define Rado's identity during the late twentieth century. Its signature octagonal cushion case is crafted from Rado's renowned scratchproof hardmetal — an exceptionally hard tungsten carbide composite that remains virtually impervious to everyday scratching. The deeply lacquered black dial is set with two diamond hour markers at twelve and six o'clock, lending a quiet luxury to this understated piece. The "jubilé" inscription and the bold RADO logotype underscore the watch's special pedigree. --- Specifications --- Brand: Rado Series: Jubilé Reference: 153.1014 Movement: Swiss quartz Case Material: Tungsten (hardmetal) Crystal: Flat mineral glass Dial: Matte black, diamond markers at 12 and 6, applied RADO logotype, "jubilé" inscription, sword-shaped hands, "Swiss" text Case Back: Stainless steel screw-back, engraved "RADO 153.1014 SCRATCHPROOF WATERRESEAL" Bracelet: Black smooth leather strap with stainless steel pin buckle Gender: Women's Period: 1980s Country of Origin: Switzerland --- Condition Report --- Overall: Good — wears well with honest signs of age-related use commensurate with its vintage status.
