Rado DiaStar Original Automatic Watch 38mm with Yellow Gold Dial - R12161663

Rado R12161663 DiaStar Original Automatic Watch 38mm with Yellow Gold Dial

The Rado DiaStar Original Automatic R12161663 brings a traditional Rado look together with modern elements for discerning watch lovers. Elegant and sparkling, this automatic wristwatch centers its design on a yellow gold sunray dial, where a sandblasted star pattern and 11 crystal stones create a luxurious finish. The day and date appear together at six o'clock, integrating practical calendar information into the decorative composition. From its vivid dial to its gold-colored exterior, the watch presents a refined interpretation of an established Rado style.

The materials are chosen for beauty and resilience. A Ceramos PVD bezel contributes lightness and one of the highest levels of scratch resistance, while sapphire crystal glass adds further scratch resistance above the dial. The PVD-coated stainless steel bracelet, middle links and 3-fold clasp combine polished and brushed gold colors, giving the exterior varied texture and a coordinated finish. Super-LumiNova details accent the hands, and 100 m water resistance adds everyday practicality without taking away from the watch's striking appearance.

Beyond its sparkling presentation, the DiaStar Original is powered by the Rado calibre R764 automatic movement. Its 80-hour power reserve allows the watch to keep running through extended time away from the wrist, while the antimagnetic Nivachron hairspring is designed to resist magnetic influence. Rado tests and adjusts the movement in five positions, exceeding standard testing requirements in pursuit of high precision. These mechanical details complement the modern material choices and traditional styling, bringing performance and visual distinction together in a Swiss Made automatic watch.
