Rado DiaMaster Automatic R14073182 – High-Tech Ceramic – Full Set – New- unsold Stock – Swiss Made Model Overview An impressive Rado DiaMaster Automatic, reference R14073182 / 629.0073.3.018, presented in exceptionally well-preserved New Old Stock / unsold retail stock condition. Rado is internationally recognised as one of the pioneers of high-tech ceramic watchmaking, and the DiaMaster collection represents the brand’s modern interpretation of a classic Swiss automatic dress watch. This model combines an elegant minimalist black dial with a full black high-tech ceramic case and bracelet, sapphire crystal and a quality Swiss automatic movement. This example comes as a complete full set with its original Rado box and documentation. It originates from remaining retail inventory rather than normal private use and is rated approximately 9.5/10, with only possible very light storage or handling traces. The model originally occupied a premium segment of the Rado collection, with retail positioning around €3,500.-4000 Technical Specifications Brand: Rado Collection: DiaMaster Reference: R14073182 / 01.629.0073.3.018 Movement: Swiss automatic, Rado Calibre 629 / ETA 2892-A2 base Jewels: 21 Frequency: 28,800 vibrations/hour Power Reserve: Approx. 42 hours Functions: Hours, minutes, seconds and date Country of Manufacture: Switzerland Production Era: Late 2010s / early 2020s Case The elegant round case is manufactured from black high-tech ceramic, one of the materials for which Rado has become particularly famous.

Dial & Hands The watch features a clean black dial with applied baton hour markers and contrasting silver-tone hands. The minimalist layout is completed by a discreet date window at 6 o’clock, maintaining the balanced and symmetrical appearance of the watch. The moving Rado anchor emblem beneath 12 o’clock is one of the brand’s traditional signature details. Bracelet & Clasp The watch is fitted with its original matching black high-tech ceramic bracelet, creating the characteristic seamless monochrome DiaMaster appearance. The bracelet is completed by a folding clasp with titanium components. The combination of ceramic construction and titanium hardware provides both durability and excellent wearing comfort. Rado & Ceramic Watchmaking Rado has played an important role in introducing advanced materials into mainstream Swiss watchmaking. The company became particularly associated with scratch-resistant and high-tech ceramic cases and bracelets, creating watches that retain their appearance exceptionally well over time. The DiaMaster combines this technological identity with the proportions and understated appearance of a traditional Swiss dress watch. The result is a distinctive luxury watch that is considerably different from conventional stainless-steel competitors. Collector Appeal Finding this model in unsold retail-stock condition and complete with its original accessories is becoming increasingly uncommon, particularly as this generation of the DiaMaster is no longer a standard current-production model. The combination of a full ceramic construction, Swiss automatic movement, sapphire crystal, exhibition caseback and complete original set makes this an attractive opportunity for both a Rado collector and someone looking for an unusual Swiss luxury automatic watch.
