Rado Captain Cook High-Tech Ceramic Chronograph
When you think of dive watches, there’s often a predictable formula—bold, rugged, and built to perform. But every once in a while, a timepiece comes along that rewrites the rules. The Rado Captain Cook High-Tech Ceramic Chronograph, now available at Swiss Paradise, does just that.
This isn’t just a watch—it’s a fusion of timeless design and breakthrough material science.
A Legacy, Reinvented
Since 1962, Rado’s Captain Cook has held its place as one of the more refined choices in the dive watch world. But rather than chasing trends, Rado has quietly built a reputation for innovation, especially when it comes to materials.
Fast forward to today, and the Captain Cook gets a bold new chapter: a chronograph crafted entirely in high-tech ceramic, bringing both resilience and refinement to the wrist.
Two Looks, One Vision
What makes this release compelling isn’t just the specs—it’s the character. Rado has introduced the chronograph in two striking variants:
-
Black ceramic with rose gold details: modern, sleek, with a hint of luxury.
-
Plasma ceramic with a dark green bezel: subtle, sporty, and unmistakably confident.
Both versions are housed in a 43mm monobloc ceramic case, designed to offer durability with an unbelievably light feel. It’s large in presence, yet exceptionally wearable—thanks to ceramic’s unique properties.
Form Meets Function
This is more than just a design update. Rado took the chronograph complication seriously, adding a proper hour counter for enhanced usability. The three-register layout is clean and balanced, while the red chronograph hands offer quick readability without overpowering the dial.
Subtle features like the rotating anchor logo at 12 o’clock and a perfectly integrated date window at 6 o’clock show Rado’s commitment to thoughtful design.
Why Ceramic Still Matters
Few brands understand ceramic like Rado. It’s more than scratch resistance—it’s comfort, temperature neutrality, and longevity, all wrapped into a finish that doesn’t fade with time.
From the case to the bracelet, the full-ceramic construction adds a premium feel and unmatched durability. This is a watch built to perform every day, and still look brand new years down the line.
Powered for Precision
Inside the Captain Cook Chronograph ticks the R801 automatic movement, based on the trusted ETA A31. It delivers a 59-hour power reserve and features a Nivachron™ hairspring making it resistant to magnetic fields, a growing concern in today’s digital-first world.
Reliable. Consistent. Swiss-engineered to keep perfect time.
