womens black chrono

RADO’s sleek Ceramica chronograph takes the growing trend of ceramic watches to the next level with a streamlined profile. The chronograph's push-buttons and crown are virtually invisible on the side of the 100-foot water-resistant case. The bezel, of course, is fixed into position in a matte-black finish that matches the strap and dial. You’ll be hard-pressed to find the hidden deployment clasp closure made of titanium. Yet, while the profile might be trim and fit, the watch is an XL size and will definitely have a sophisticated and masculine presence on your wrist. 90 Uniqueness This RADO Ceramica’s quartz chronograph movement remains one of the best in the world, and combined with RADO’s famous scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, it provides a one-of-a-kind look. The case itself is integrated into the ceramic bracelet, producing a trim and economical look that has become another hallmark of RADO engineering. Read more 71 Durability The RADO Ceramica benefits from RADO’s Swiss experience with ceramic manufacturing and quartz-movement technology. This experience produces a watch that is scratch-resistant all around and requires little service or maintenance. Many luxury watch enthusiasts opt for automatic or manual models that would be impossible with a profile as trim as the RADO Ceramica's. However, consider that a well-made quartz movement, such as this one, is more accurate than an automatic and requires far less attention on your part. This is not a sporty watch so let’s not quarrel about the low water-resistant rating in an expensive watch. Besides, this is not the watch you’ll be wearing to the beach or pool -- save this one for those tuxedo nights.

Ref. 8853 For this chronograph, Baume & Mercier has designed a new fluted case in black satin-finished and sand-blasted PVD-coated steel, accentuated by profiled push-pieces and driven by a mechanical self-winding movement. Screwed down to guarantee perfect water-resistance to 200 meters, the case-back is fitted with a triangular-shaped opening revealing the oscillating weight adorned with "C?tes de Gen��ve". The black dial is enlivened by riveted "appliqu��" rhodium-plated hour-markers coated with Superluminova?*, along with luminescent hollowed hands ensuring optimal readability. The fluted screw-down crown is adorned with the Phi symbol. The date appears at 6 o'clock, the chronograph at 3 o'clock (minutes) and the small seconds at 9 o'clock.
