Rado - 2017 HyperChrome Captain Cook Limited Edition

WHAT WE LOVE:

The Rado Captain Cook was introduced in 1962 as one of the brand's most technically ambitious dive watches — a watch built to the exacting standards of Swiss precision with Rado's characteristic focus on material innovation. The HyperChrome Captain Cook is the reinterpretation of that original, and this limited edition of exactly 1,962 pieces closes the circle entirely.

The sunburst brown dial is the detail that distinguishes this limited edition from the standard Captain Cook production. Where the standard references use black or blue, the warm brown dial creates a distinctive character — earthy and vintage in tone, evoking the aesthetic of professional instruments from the 1960s. Against the black  ceramic bezel insert and the steel case, the brown reads incredibly well. 

WHAT'S INSIDE:

The R32500315 is powered by a Swiss automatic movement delivering an 80-hour power reserve — a specification that comfortably exceeds the 38-42 hour standard of most comparable automatic dive watches and means the Captain Cook can be set aside for an entire long weekend without requiring a re-wind.
