FAQs

Is high-tech ceramic truly scratch-proof?

High-tech ceramic is highly scratch-resistant, meaning it is very difficult to scratch during normal daily wear. However, it is not entirely scratch-proof and can be damaged by very sharp impacts or abrasive materials.

How should I clean my Rado True Square Diamonds watch?

Clean your watch with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Is this watch suitable for swimming or showering?

Water resistance ratings vary by model. Consult your specific watch's user manual for its water resistance specifications. Generally, it's advisable to remove your watch before swimming, showering, or engaging in water sports to preserve its integrity.

What is the warranty period for this watch?

Rado typically offers a standard international warranty on its watches. Please refer to the warranty card included with your purchase or the official Rado website for the exact duration and terms of the warranty.

Can I adjust the bracelet myself?

Adjusting ceramic bracelets usually requires specialized tools and knowledge to avoid damaging the links. It is recommended to have any adjustments made by an authorized Rado dealer or a qualified watchmaker.

What makes the ceramic material special?

High-tech ceramic is known for its lightness, exceptional scratch resistance, durability, and hypoallergenic properties. It also maintains its polished finish over time, resisting fading and discoloration.

How is the 'monobloc' case constructed?

The monobloc construction means the watch case is formed from a single, solid piece of high-tech ceramic, created through advanced injection molding processes. This contributes to its seamless look and structural integrity.

Troubleshooting

Watch is running slow or fast

This may indicate a need for servicing or a potential magnetic influence. Ensure the watch is not stored near strong magnetic fields and consult a watchmaker if the issue persists.

The date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are setting the date according to the user manual's instructions, typically by advancing the time past midnight. Avoid changing the date when the time is between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.

Loss of water resistance

While ceramic watches are generally robust, water resistance can be compromised by gasket degradation or impacts. Have the water resistance tested annually by a professional and avoid submerging the watch if resistance is uncertain.

Strap/bracelet feels loose or tight

Adjustments to ceramic bracelets often require specialized tools and expertise. Visit an authorized Rado dealer or a qualified watchmaker for professional resizing to avoid damaging the links.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional scratch resistance for long-lasting beauty.
  • Very lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear.
  • Unique, modern, and design-led aesthetic.
  • Hypoallergenic material suitable for sensitive skin.
  • Durable construction built to last.

Cons

  • Premium price point due to advanced materials and design.
  • Limited adjustability for bracelet/strap without specialized tools.
  • Ceramic can be brittle under sharp impact.
  • Specific aesthetic may not appeal to all tastes.
  • Requires careful handling to avoid dropping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Rado True Square Diamonds - 28mm is a mechanical watch and requires no electronic setup. For models with a date function, setting the correct date is typically done by manually advancing the time past midnight until the date changes, then setting the correct time. Refer to the user manual for specific crown operations.

Compatibility: As a standalone timepiece, compatibility is not a technical concern. However, ensure the bracelet or strap fits comfortably. Adjustments may require a certified watchmaker due to the specialized nature of ceramic links.

Care:

  • Clean the watch regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the ceramic surface.
  • For stubborn marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
  • Store the watch in its original box or a soft pouch when not in use to prevent scratches from other jewelry.
  • While scratch-resistant, avoid exposing the watch to sharp impacts or extreme forces that could potentially chip or crack the ceramic.
  • Annual servicing by a Rado-certified watchmaker is recommended to maintain optimal performance of the movement.
