Rado Centrix Automatic Diamonds Unisex with Black Dial, Date

Product Overview

The Rado Centrix Automatic Diamonds watch represents a refined evolution of a classic design, blending heritage craftsmanship with contemporary innovation. This unisex timepiece has been thoughtfully updated both technically and aesthetically, offering a seamless fusion of elegance and performance. At its heart lies the in-house R763 automatic movement, a self-winding caliber engineered for precision and resilience. With an impressive 80-hour power reserve, it ensures reliable timekeeping even when not worn for several days. The movement’s antimagnetic Nivachron™ hairspring enhances accuracy by resisting interference from magnetic fields and temperature fluctuations, making it a dependable companion in modern environments.

The watch’s visual identity is defined by its sleek black lacquered dial, which serves as a sophisticated backdrop for four precisely set diamonds that mark the hour positions. These diamonds add a subtle sparkle without overpowering the minimalist aesthetic, maintaining a sense of understated luxury. The printed “jubilé” logo complements the design, reinforcing the watch’s heritage appeal. Rhodium-colored hands glide smoothly across the dial, offering excellent readability while harmonizing with the overall tone. Every detail is curated to reflect Rado’s commitment to balance—between tradition and innovation, form and function.

Key Features

• Black Lacquered Dial with Diamonds: The deep black lacquered dial provides a rich, reflective surface that enhances the brilliance of the four diamond hour markers. These diamonds are carefully selected and set to ensure symmetry and visual harmony. The “jubilé” logo, subtly printed on the dial, pays homage to Rado’s legacy while maintaining a clean, modern look. Rhodium-colored hands ensure consistent legibility in various lighting conditions and contribute to the watch’s cohesive design.
• Rounded Sapphire Crystal: The sapphire crystal is curved to match the contour of the case, extending fully to the edge for a seamless, uninterrupted surface. This not only enhances the watch’s sleek profile but also improves scratch resistance and optical clarity. Sapphire is one of the hardest materials used in watchmaking, ensuring the crystal remains pristine even with daily wear.
• Curved Case and Integrated Bracelet: The case features a gently curved silhouette that flows naturally into the bracelet, creating a fluid and ergonomic design. The lugs have been refined to integrate smoothly with the bracelet, eliminating sharp edges and improving comfort. The bracelet combines polished stainless steel with black high-tech ceramic center links, offering a striking contrast that highlights Rado’s expertise in advanced materials.
• Swiss Automatic Movement (Calibre R763): The R763 movement is a self-winding caliber developed in-house by Rado. It delivers consistent performance with a power reserve of 80 hours, allowing the watch to keep accurate time even after several days of non-use. The antimagnetic Nivachron™ hairspring ensures stability against magnetic interference, a common issue in modern electronic environments. This movement exceeds standard accuracy tests across three to five positions, underscoring its precision.
• Water Resistance to 50 Meters: The watch is designed to withstand everyday exposure to water, such as handwashing or brief splashes. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. This level of water resistance provides peace of mind during daily activities while maintaining the integrity of the internal mechanisms.

Additionally, the extended power reserve means the watch remains accurate even during weekends or travel, reducing the need for frequent adjustments. Its understated design ensures it complements rather than dominates, making it a reliable everyday companion.

Important Notes

While the watch is water resistant to 50 meters, it should not be submerged intentionally. Avoid wearing it while swimming, showering, or engaging in water sports, as prolonged exposure may affect its performance. The manufacturer’s warranty is available upon request through customer service. To maintain the watch’s appearance, avoid impacts to the sapphire crystal and clean the bracelet regularly with a soft cloth. This model was first released on October 20, 2023, and reflects Rado’s ongoing dedication to innovation in materials and movement technology.
