Rado has recently won Good Design Award with its high-tech ceramic Rado HyperChrome Ultra Light.

Part of 2018 collection, the award-winning piece Rado HyperChrome Ultra Light is made of groundbreaking ultra-light high-tech ceramic, which only bears half of the weight of standard high-tech ceramic. Not to mention, it is more solid and more scratch-resistant.

This marked Rado’s eighth win in a row at the prestigious award ceremony organised by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design.

Drawing its inspiration from 20th-century pocket watches, the classic-looking timepiece is endowed with Rado’s signature monobloc case and a brown sunray high-tech ceramic dial. The watch is also powered by ETA A31.L02 automatic movement with 21 jewels and 64-hour power reserve.

Gaining recognition in ‘Personal’ category of Good Design Award, the HyperChrome Ultra Light is undeniably a masterpiece in terms of quality, function and aesthetics – that designs to stand the test of time and speaks more than a commercial product.
