Rado Ceramica Chronograph Versus Philippe Starck ph5022

The Rado Ceramica Chronograph is an amazing looking watch, a full wrist Chronograph built in the luxury that only Rado can capture. The dial displays three counters of different sizes and the date at four o’clock, subtly random comets and circles scattered across the black surface. The pushers operating the chronograph functions hardly protrude from the case – perfectly integrated. But omnipresent.

There are two variations of this graphic and monochrome model. In its polished version, the ceramic reinforces the brilliance of the black metallised crystal. The matt finish offers an exceptional contrast. Both are innovative. Indexes provide a rhythm for the seconds round to three o’clock, then surprise with their intermittence. The counters display finely engraved concentric circles. Precise sophistication. Indomitable vitality.

The watch normally retails between £1200 to £1800, however eBay has some decent deals with them being picked up by as little as £350 if you are lucky.
