Rado Diastar Ceramica

Sometime in the early 90's Rado released this new design of diastar. I believe that it was revolutionary at that time. The whole watch was scratch proof. It was made from high tech ceramics. If I am right the price for this particular model was around $1000+ US dollars. It's on the small size these days but still IMO one of the best/reconizable looking dress watch at its price point. It came with an ETA quartz which maybe accurate. I say maybe because it is difficult to see what time it is exactly. There are no markers. (looks 1, functionality 0)



Today, you can find a watch like this for somewhere between $700-$1000. It is worth it. The new Rado Diastar Ceramica looks a bit the same but bigger and more details.(Automatic also available) But if are looking for clean lines and/or believe that simple is best then get the original.
