Product Information

Full details

The Rado True Round x Les Couleurs Le Corbusier in GRIS FONCÉ (32010) is designed for watch enthusiasts and architectural design lovers who appreciate material innovation combined with artistic heritage. Its key benefit lies in the durability of high-tech ceramic paired with the exceptional 80-hour power reserve of the R763 movement, though the unique, bold color palette of the hands may require a preference for non-traditional, minimalist watch aesthetics.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the material of the case and bracelet?

The watch is constructed from high-tech matt ceramic, known for its scratch resistance and lightweight properties.

How often does the watch need to be serviced?

Rado generally recommends a maintenance service every 3 to 5 years to ensure the movement remains lubricated and accurate.

Is the Rado True Round water-resistant?

Yes, it is designed for daily wear, but you should verify your specific model's water resistance rating on the case back before submerging it.

What is the advantage of the Nivachron hairspring?

The Nivachron hairspring is made from a specialized alloy that significantly reduces the influence of magnetic fields, improving timekeeping stability.

Can I resize the ceramic bracelet myself?

Resizing ceramic bracelets requires specific tools and caution to avoid cracking the links; it is highly recommended to have this done by an authorized dealer.

What does the 80-hour power reserve mean?

This indicates that the watch can run for up to 80 hours after being fully wound, even if it is not worn.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not keeping time accurately

Ensure the watch has been fully wound and check if it has been exposed to strong magnetic fields; if issues persist, have the movement regulated at an authorized service center.

Power reserve seems shorter than 80 hours

Ensure you are wearing the watch for at least 8-10 hours a day to build an adequate mainspring charge, or use a watch winder if you are inactive.

Residue on the ceramic surface

Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild soap solution to gently wipe the ceramic; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and scratch-resistant ceramic material
  • Long-lasting 80-hour power reserve
  • Highly resistant to magnetism due to Nivachron technology
  • Unique design collaborations with architectural heritage
  • Hypoallergenic and lightweight on the wrist

Cons

  • Bold hand colors may not suit formal dress codes
  • Ceramic, while hard, can be brittle under extreme direct impact
  • Specific aesthetic may be polarizing for traditionalists

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, unscrew the crown gently and pull it to the second position; rotate to adjust the hands. The watch is self-winding, meaning it will store energy from your natural wrist movement. If the watch has stopped, manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise about 20-30 times while in the closed position. For care, clean the ceramic case and bracelet periodically using a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water to remove oils and dust. While the watch is water-resistant, avoid exposing the movement to extreme heat or direct pressure from high-pressure water sources. Ensure the sapphire crystal remains free of heavy abrasives, though it is naturally highly resistant to scratching.
