More About Rado True Watches
Even more loved than ever before, the truth has been made from high-tech ceramic and this modern day classic shows that going back to basics can be incredibly chic. The True is the contemporary version of the classically round watch face, with a smart production process that seems to go against the minimalism of its timeless silhouette.
So, what’s fresh in the True? Whilst the style hasn’t changed barely at all, this simplified stunner is now bulging with the latest in high end ceramic technology. A slickly reimagined case with flowing lines that seamlessly meld into the bracelet gives the True a new sophistication. Today crafted from a revolutionary monobloc case style, the True is also as light as anything else around, not to mention just as if not even tougher.
