New Rado - what do you think of this one.......

Cool new Rado Rado_D-Star_Basel_special-thumbnail

Rado D-Star Basel Special 2011
The Rado D-Star Basel Special, an automatic timepiece taking an icon into a new dimension.

In line with its quest for constant innovation, Rado reveals the Rado D-Star Basel Special 2011, a sporty, chic and modern timepiece that delivers accuracy on every level.

A fusion of two materials
Combining high-tech ceramics with rubber, Rado has chosen two materials to reflect sport and design. Using a high-tech material for a sharp faceted ellipse case and for the clasp, Rado proves once again its undisputed knowledge of material and leadership in the high-tech industry.

Sportive precision in design
The Rado D-Star Basel Special has everything required for optimum performance without compromising on design. The unusually thin chronograph movement along with the tachymeter provide meticulous precision in a humble case.

The Rado D-Star Basel Special, an automatic timepiece taking an icon into a new dimension.

1111 pieces - Limited Edition.

Swiss made.

Unlimited Spirit. RADO.

I like it Gary! Looks like hidden lugs. Any idea about size and cost?

I like this one ALOT Gary ! cheers It's just nice seeing a new variation on a classic like this.
There is that unforgettable case shape, but the high tech materials, along with stealthy
sport look is a big change. Thinking it will be cool to see this modern version side by side
with the traditional versions as time goes by. Hopefully they make more similar variations
after the limited edition run is complete. Thanks VERY much for finding this one Gary !
