Watches - introduction

Quality, precision, uniqueness, reliability, tradition, design, innovation … these are just a few of the words that sum up the Swiss watchmaking industry – an industry which manages to produce timepieces that are diminutive yet highly complex, traditional yet state-of-the art.
The unparalleled reputation of Swiss watches is the result of over 500 years’ hard toil and meticulous attention to detail. While Geneva is undoubtedly the cradle of Swiss watchmaking, its heartland is in the “arc jurassien”, the arc formed by the Jura mountains stretching from Geneva in the south to Basle in the north, with companies concentrated in the cantons of Neuchâtel, Vaud, Jura, Bern, Solothurn and Basle.
But things have not always been easy for the industry. It has had to face down political unrest, stiff competition from abroad not to mention problems linked to its fragmented and labour-intensive production methods. But, like time itself, Swiss watchmakers never stand still.
Switzerland remains a world leader thanks to its design and technical innovations. Swiss watchmakers produce timepieces to suit every taste and every budget: from the cheap and cheerful mass-produced plastic quartz watch right up to the gold and diamond-encrusted chronographs. When you buy a Swiss watch, no matter what price it is, no matter which company made it, you know you are buying an item of outstanding quality and reliability. Swiss watches are in high demand across the world. In fact, 95% of “Swiss-made” watches are sold abroad, making the watch industry Switzerland’s third major exporter.
What is it that drives Swiss watchmakers? Maybe it is the inexorable flow of time and their constant quest to capture it, albeit fleetingly, and present it to us in ever new exciting shapes and forms...

NEW Big Bang Wally Consolidates Hublot's partnership with Wally

The Swiss watchmaker and the Monaco-based yacht manufacturer have already been partners for several years: Hublot is the official time keeper of the Wally Class during their regattas. And now in Saint -Tropez , the heads of the two companies will stand side by side to present the watch created in honour of their shared values. A chronograph which incorporates innovative materials, with a design and colours evocative of Wally yachts.

Hublot joins the AUTOMOBILE CLUB DE FRANCE and supports the Fondation ICM

The oldest Automobile club in the world is opening its doors to the Swiss watchmaking company Hublot for the first partnership in its history. Hugues de Rouret and Jean-Claude Biver are explaining the reasons which encouraged them to join forces in Paris today. The main fruit of this alliance will be the creation of a watch in the AFC colours, a percentage of the royalties from which will be donated to the Fondation ICM (Institute for Cerebral and Medullary Disorders).

Look and feel confident and stylish with a brand new replica Rado watch. Made by the famous Swiss design company, Rado has a reputation for a state of the art design and a look that is timeless and always classy. These watches are made with the best quality materials and assembled by trained professionals to provide you with a watch that is exactly like the real Rado version, but doesn't cost a fortune.
Rado is considered to be the company that invented scratch-proof watch materials and produced the first scratch-proof watched in 1962 called the DiaStar. The Swiss company has made their luxury watches for almost one century and although the company is only made up of about 300 employees, they produce about half a million watches every year.
As we all know, designer watches can escalate to prices that are out of this world, and then some. Our company offers the same quality watch with exactly the same design and assembly for a very small fraction of the cost. Replica Rado watches have many exciting and exsquisite features, such as quartz faces, water resistance (up to certain depths that vary with each model), black or white brushed ceramic casing and bracelets, and calendar movement. An authentic Rado watch purchased brand new at a Rado retailer can cost a base price of 1, 400 dollars, however they can be as much as five thousand dollars. A brand new replica Rado watch can cost as little as two or three hundred dollars, which is a much more friendly price!
You might be asking yourself why you should purchase a replica instead of the real thing. Cost, obviously the is the main reason, as the price of a name-brand watch is amazingly high, and lets face it - a watch is your symbol of status in the professional world, so you need to have the best that money can buy. Luckily, our company sells the highest quality of replica watches that can be found, so you don't have to worry about anyone knowing your little secret!

History

Formed in 1917 as Schlup & Co., Rado initially produced watch movements only. In 1957 the company launched its first collection of watches under the Rado brand. In 1962 the Rado Diastar, the world's first scratch-proof watch, was launched. It has been in production ever since, now sold as DiaStar The Original.
In 1983 Rado became part of the SMH group which was renamed in 1998 as the Swatch Group.

Design

Rado differs from some of the more traditional Swiss watchmakers in that it often uses unconventional high tech materials and designs. Rado has pioneered the use of a number materials unique to watchmaking, e.g. hardmetal(tungsten- and titanium-carbide), ceramics, lanthanum andsapphire crystal. In 2004 the V10K was introduced; a watch with a coating of high tech diamond. The V10K is the hardest watch on earth.
Other than the material, newer Rado watches also look very different from those from most other makers. Market reaction to this is generally mixed, with some preferring the look of the more traditional makers, and others appreciating the more distinct Rado look. During the years, the different models of Rado have received more than 20 international design awards, varying from the Red Dot Award to the If design Award.

Pricing

Rado watches vary in pricing according to model, age and materials but generally a Rado will range from about US$400 to about US$28,000 for a watch made from the more precious materials.

Fakes

Like many watchmakers, Rado suffers from a high level of forgeries on the market. Owing to their distinct style, Rado watches are a major target and there are many counterfeit watches on sale, particularly on the internet. To combat this,[citation needed] the company has a small list of authorized retailers in the various countries where it operates and these companies are forbidden to sell Rado watches over the internet. The prices of these fakes are usually under $200 USD. These watches are cheap and good looking but lack the special features that originals have, e.g. they are not scratch-proof.

The Rado watch is associated with top quality timepieces made from the finest scratch proof materials in the world. The company was founded in 1917 in Switzerland, although it wasn't until the 1960's that the world's first scratch proof watch was made under the name Rado DiaStar.

2nd Birthday of Rado Store Vienna
On 1st June, Rado celebrated the second successful year of their European flagship store in Vienna. Designed as a mirrored cube, the store provides a unique Rado atmosphere, just one step away from the bustling street.
Breathtakingly displayed, the watches appear to float in the air – endlessly mirroring, each watch is the continuation and expression of the other watches. On this occasion selected journalists were invited to the Rado store to present the latest products.

All in all, 20 journalists visited the Rado store and were able to experience their personal Rado moment with the latest Rado watches. All guests were also unanimously enthusiastic about the modern Rado store concept that suits the brand so absolutely with its unique atmosphere.

Initial positive reports have already appeared in the media. The highly influential consumer magazine, the test magazine “Die Mucha”, singled out the Rado boutique in Vienna for its atmosphere, among other things.
