Rado DiaStar Original Skeleton Limited Edition Automatic Watch 38mm in Blue Dial - R12169209

Rado R12169209 DiaStar Original Skeleton Limited Edition Automatic Watch 38mm in Blue Dial

The Rado R12169209 DiaStar Original Skeleton Limited Edition automatic skeleton wristwatch combines an R808 caliber with an 80-hour power reserve, a Ceramos bezel and a square-faceted sapphire crystal in an edition limited to 555 pieces. Signature DiaStar scratch-resistance meets contemporary color: a blue annular dial surrounds the rhodium-colored movement, with yellow Super-Luminova details on the indices, hour and minute hands, and moving anchor symbol. A sculpted blue rubber strap adds soft, durable comfort. Swiss Made, this successor to the original DiaStar puts its visible mechanics at the center of an expressive, colorful design.

Key Features

Scratch-Resistant Ceramos and Square-Faceted Sapphire

The Rado R12169209 carries forward the original DiaStar's material character through its Ceramos bezel and distinctive faceted crystal. Sapphire gives the front of the watch its signature square-faceted geometry, while the bezel's sophisticated, smudge-proof finish frames the intricate dial. Together, these materials bring DiaStar scratch-resistance to a contemporary skeleton design.

Clarity in Colour and Yellow Super-Luminova

Color highlights the skeletonized movement at the core of the Rado R12169209. The vivid blue strap brings a crisp, graphic energy echoed by the annular dial, setting off the rhodium tones within. Yellow Super-Luminova supplies luminous accents across the indices and timekeeping hands, extending the colorful detailing to the moving anchor symbol.

Visible R808 Mechanics with an 80-Hour Reserve

The Rado R12169209 invites a closer look at its automatic caliber rather than concealing it behind a solid dial. A horizontal brushed finish on the rhodium-colored R808 movement creates layers of complexity, and the transparent sapphire caseback offers another view from the reverse. Its technical details include an 80-hour power reserve, an antimagnetic Nivachron hairspring and movement accuracy testing in five positions.

Soft, Sculpted Blue Rubber Strap

The Rado R12169209 continues its graphic blue theme onto the wrist with a sculpted rubber strap. Soft, flexible rubber combines lasting comfort with durability, designed for precise, effortless wear. A stainless steel pin buckle completes the strap, bringing a practical closure to the watch's colorful, contemporary presentation.
