VIDEO: Shape and sculpture – the Rado Ceramica

Felix Scholz

When Cameron told us about the Rado Ceramica a little while ago, we knew we wanted to get a close look at this squared-off ceramic number. And when we did spend some time with it on our wrists and in front of our lenses, something became increasingly apparent. This is as much a sculpture as it is a watch – I noticed I was spending more time looking at the flex of the bracelet and the gentle curve at the end of the case than looking at the time. And while some might see this as an issue from a functionalism point of view, I prefer to see it more as a triumph of watch-as-design-object. And besides, reading the time was simplicity itself, especially as my inner snob could rest easy knowing this Ceramica is a fully-fledged automatic.
