RADO LAUNCHED THE CAPTAIN COOK watch in 1962 to meet the needs of amateur and professional divers. The Captain Cook, possibly Rado's most popular model, reflected the era of great expeditions, explorers and adventures while also serving the increasing demand for dive watches.
In 2017, Rado unveiled the vintage re-edition of the 1962 Captain Cook in 37 mm proportions reminiscent to the original, and a larger 45 mm version, in response to popular demand for vintage-looking yet contemporary editions. Since then, many retro and vintage-inspired watches have launched, and with the new Captain Cook, Rado delivers a model that not only adopts the name and spirit of its predecessor, but is also made, for the first time, entirely of ceramic (with the exception of the caseback).
