New Delhi, February 10, 2023 : Rado, known for its innovation in the area of materials and design, launched the 60th anniversary edition of the DiaStar Original at the India Art Fair 2023 embracing the successful 60 years of DiaStar. The new DiaStar Original Anniversary Edition is created and designed in collaboration with the Swiss designer, Alfredo Häberli. It is framed by a radial-brushed Ceramos™ coiffe with polished angles and detailing set over a matching, monochrome stainless-steel case and a sapphire crystal with hexagonal facets that mark six decades since the first Rado DiaStar.
Known for designs which are reduced and inventive, Swiss Designer Alfredo Häberli, at the launch said, “Rado DiaStar was the world’s first scratch-proof watch, and it was one of the historic moments in the space of design. 60 years later when I got the opportunity to revamp and redesign this iconic watch, it was one of the most inspiring moments for me as a designer. As I designed the new watch, I imagined it to be bold, edgy, and futuristic keeping the essence of the original DiaStar. I am thrilled to be here at The India Art Fair in India to launch this iconic piece and I hope this watch connects with the audiences here”
