Few watches have rewritten the rules of watchmaking. The Rado DiaStar is one of them — more than a timepiece, it is a symbol of innovation. For over six decades, it has embodied resilience, modernity, and avant-garde design, proving that true icons evolve with time.

Born as the world’s first scratch-proof watch and endlessly reimagined, the DiaStar is a masterclass in material innovation and bold form.

The First Legend: DiaStar 1 (1962)

When Rado introduced the DiaStar 1 in 1962, it was unlike anything the world had ever seen. Its shield-shaped case, forged in hardmetal and paired with sapphire crystal, made it the first watch to resist scratches and the passage of time.

Bold. Durable. Revolutionary.

The DiaStar was not just a watch — it was a statement of technical mastery and futuristic design.

Sleek Innovation: DiaStar Ceramic (1990)

In 1990, Rado once again redefined modern watchmaking with the DiaStar Ceramic. Sleek, smooth, and futuristic, it was one of the earliest explorations of high-tech ceramic in horology.

Lightweight yet enduring, glossy yet restrained, this edition proved that innovation and elegance could coexist seamlessly.

Ceramic Precision. Futuristic Elegance.

Heritage Reimagined: DiaStar 60th Anniversary (2022)

To mark six decades of an icon, Rado unveiled the DiaStar Original 60th Anniversary in 2022. With a faceted sapphire crystal, Ceramos™ case, and modern movement boasting an 80-hour power reserve, it was a perfect fusion of past and present.

Heritage. Modernity. Iconic form.

Six decades, one enduring silhouette.

Transparency in Time: DiaStar Skeleton (2023)

The DiaStar Skeleton brought the legend into a new era. With its open-worked dial and visible mechanics, it revealed the beating heart of time itself, framed within the unmistakable DiaStar case.

Transparent. Contemporary. Bold.

Time revealed, beauty within.
