Rado r5.5 Chronograph launching at SiD
This year at Saturday in Design, Rado will be launching the third stage of collaboration with one of today’s most influential industrial designers, Jasper Morrison.
Following the re-interpretation of Ceramica XL in 2007 and the creation of new packaging in 2008, the r5.5 is a creation in high-tech ceramic that epitomises classic Rado elegance.
This elegance partly lies in the merging of separate components – the lines of the case and bracelet fuse naturally together, a technical achievement despite its apparent simplicity. The dial has a distinctive square silhouette with curved edges, on which the details are highlighted in white. Beneath the sapphire crystal are simply two counters, reducing it to its essential functionality.
Keep an eye out for the refined, restrained and unmistakably Swiss look of RADO during Saturday in Design this year…
