Rado - DiaStar - 沒有保留價 - 160.0281.3N - 中性 - 1990-1999

Introduction

The RADO DiaStar is one of the brand’s most iconic and technically innovative collections. This rectangular blue dial model embodies Rado’s long-standing philosophy of scratch resistance and modern design. With its refined gold-tone case and high-tech ceramic bracelet links, it represents both durability and elegant Swiss craftsmanship.

Historical & Collector Value

Introduced in 1962, the DiaStar became the world’s first scratch-resistant watch, establishing Rado as a pioneer in material innovation. The use of hard metal and later high-tech ceramic positioned the brand at the forefront of technical watchmaking.

This reference, featuring a deep blue dial with minimalist gold accents and ceramic bracelet elements, reflects the evolution of the DiaStar concept into a more contemporary, design-driven piece. Collectors value DiaStar models for their technical heritage, distinctive case architecture, and long-term wear resistance. Well-preserved examples with original bracelet and clear case engravings are particularly desirable.
