ABOUT THE RADO DIASTAR ORIGINAL COLLECTION
The DiaStar collection introduced in 1962 was launched as the world’s first scratch-resistant watch. The debut of this collection marked the brand’s devotion to innovation, positioning them as the “Master of Materials” long before the widespread adoption of sapphire crystals in watchmaking. Crafted from ultra-resistant hard metal, the original DiaStar employed an alloy of carbide tungsten powder formed through a meticulous sintering process. This bold use of technology and design encapsulated the forward-thinking ethos that continues to define Rado watches today.
