--- Introduction --- The Rado Elegance belongs to the quietly confident side of the Swiss house, where the material experiments of the DiaStar are turned towards pure dress-watch restraint. A softly cushioned steel case carries a broad, dark grey bezel that frames a small silvered dial like a picture mount, and the only decoration allowed is a set of slim applied batons, two fine hands and the Elegance script. The watch is worn on its original woven mesh-style steel bracelet, closed by a clasp bearing the Rado anchor. --- Specifications --- Brand: Rado Series: Elegance Reference: 396.3030.4 Movement: Mechanical, manual winding Case Material: Stainless steel with dark grey bezel section Crystal: Mineral crystal Dial: Silver, with applied baton markers and the Elegance script Case Back: Stainless steel four-screw back engraved RADO 396.3030.4 Water Sealed, with the Rado anchor medallion, serial 3633285 Bracelet: Woven steel bracelet with signed Rado clasp Period: 1970-1979 Country of Origin: Switzerland --- Condition Report --- Overall: Good, with visible signs of wear consistent with age and use.
