FAQs

How do I set the time and date on my Rado Centrix?

Gently pull the crown to the first position to set the date, and pull it to the second position to set the time. Always ensure you are not setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to avoid damaging the mechanism.

What is the power reserve of this watch?

The R763 automatic movement offers an impressive power reserve of approximately 80 hours.

Is the rose gold color permanent?

The watch features a rose gold PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating. While durable, PVD coatings can be subject to wear over time with significant friction or impact.

Can I swim with this watch?

The watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (5 bar), which is suitable for accidental splashes and brief immersion. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or prolonged exposure to water.

How often does an automatic watch need servicing?

It is generally recommended to have an automatic watch serviced every 3 to 5 years by a qualified watchmaker to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

What is the material of the bracelet links?

The bracelet is made of polished rose-gold-colored PVD-coated stainless steel with brown high-tech ceramic middle links.

Does the watch have a display case back?

The Rado Centrix Automatic features a solid case back, not a display case back, showcasing the classic design aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

Ensure the watch has been wound sufficiently. Shake gently or manually wind the crown. If it stops again shortly after, the power reserve may be depleted, or it may require servicing.

Inaccurate timekeeping

Automatic watches can have slight variations. If significant inaccuracy persists, it may need regulation. Ensure the watch is not exposed to strong magnetic fields, which can affect accuracy. Contact a Rado service center if issues continue.

Date not changing correctly

Avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as the date mechanism is engaged during these hours. If the issue persists, consult the user manual or a service professional.

PVD coating appears worn

PVD coatings can experience wear over time with significant friction. While generally durable, extensive use might lead to subtle changes. Gentle cleaning can maintain appearance. For significant wear, professional re-coating may be an option, though not typically covered by warranty.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and timeless design suitable for various occasions.
  • Precise timekeeping with the R763 automatic movement.
  • Extended 80-hour power reserve for convenience.
  • Durable construction with sapphire crystal and high-tech ceramic elements.
  • Luxurious rose gold PVD coating and contrasting brown dial.

Cons

  • Rose gold PVD coating may show wear over extended periods of heavy use.
  • At 50m, water resistance is suitable for splashes but not for deep diving.
  • Automatic watches require periodic maintenance for optimal performance.
  • May be considered a dress watch, potentially less suited for rugged activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As an automatic watch, the Centrix requires winding to start if it has stopped. You can do this by gently shaking the watch for about 30 seconds or by manually winding the crown a few turns while in the time-setting position. Once running, it will wind itself with the motion of your wrist.

Compatibility: This timepiece is designed as a standalone accessory. No electronic compatibility is required.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks on the stainless steel or ceramic parts, use a slightly damp cloth, then dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Winding: Wear the watch daily or wind it manually if not worn for more than a couple of days to maintain its accuracy.
  • Water Resistance: While water-resistant to 50 meters, it is recommended to avoid prolonged submersion, steam, or high-velocity water activities to preserve the seals.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in its original box, to protect it from dust and scratches.
