Rado DiaMaster Thinline Automatic

Introduced in 2013, the DiaMaster showcases their mastery in crafting timepieces that blend durability with design effortlessly. Known for their expertise in high-tech ceramics, Rado positioned the DiaMaster as a representation of their material ingenuity. Unlike other collections within their portfolio, the DiaMaster emphasises simplicity while maintaining a robust and distinctive profile.

Design And Iterations

The design language of the DiaMaster collection embraces simplicity and clarity, setting it apart within the brand’s portfolio characterised by open, readable dials and confident construction. The use of high-tech ceramic—a signature among Rado watches—provides these models with a lightweight, durable quality that stands the test of time. Notable iterations include models crafted from plasma high-tech ceramic and ceramos, materials that enhance the watch’s resilience while offering a distinctive metallic sheen without the weight of traditional metals. Within the collection, the DiaMaster Automatic Power Reserve features a practical power reserve indicator along with a date window integrated into the dial design. The DiaMaster Automatic Petite Seconds offers a more minimalistic approach, with a small seconds sub-dial at the six o'clock position. These Rado watches for men and women reinforce the clean and uncluttered look that is emblematic of the collection.

Adding a touch of opulence, the DiaMaster Diamonds incorporates precious stones into the design, juxtaposing Rado’s high-tech ceramic case with a bezel adorned with diamonds. This model is also available in an open-heart variant known as the DiaMaster Automatic Open Heart Diamonds, which showcases the intricate mechanics within through a partially exposed dial. Special editions such as the DiaMaster 1314 draw inspiration from cultural symbols of permanence and reliability, underscoring the collection’s thematic connection to timelessness. Another notable limited-edition release is the DiaMaster Prajun, created in collaboration with Thai designer Kwankao Svetivamala Prajun and limited to 1,001 pieces, reflecting a unique blend of fashion and horology. The DiaMaster collection continues to captivate with its versatile range that upholds Rado’s reputation as the ‘Master of Materials,’ offering timepieces that marry cutting-edge technology with classic, enduring design.
