[Swatch Group Japan K.K. (Rado Division)] The fusion of ergonomics and design, Rado’s perfect harmony
Swatch Group Japan Co., Ltd. (Rado Division) Press release: March 14, 2025 Rado’s perfect blend of ergonomics and design Rado Anatom The march of progress never stops. Rado’s visionary watch design journey has been marked by constant refinement, adjustment and transformation. The five new Anatom editions represent the achievement of pure ergonomic harmony, creating an innovative coexistence where design and materials come together to perfectly complement the natural contours of the wrist.

Introduced 40 years after the original model was introduced, this updated model captures the imagination of watch enthusiasts around the world and writes a new page in the history of style. Taking this concept even further, we now feature a new high-tech ceramic bracelet with the same polished finish as the bezel. Light and smooth, comfortable fit This refinement adds even more sensory uplift to an already highly comfortable design. The lightness and smoothness of high-tech ceramic, as well as its ability to quickly adapt to the wearer’s body temperature, provide maximum comfort and make it feel like a natural extension of the body. As the name suggests, the ultimate goal of this watch is to be so comfortable that you forget you’re wearing it. A symbol of free-thinking futurism, the Anatom was a truly innovative watch when it was first introduced in 1983. This model clearly inherits the spirit of the original, sharing the overall shape, minimalist aesthetic, and design details of horizontal lines on the dial and bracelet. And let’s not forget the sapphire crystal molding technology developed by Rado for the original Anatom. Like the relaunch model announced in 2023, this version is larger than the original with a case width of 32.5mm. The edges of the cylindrical sapphire crystal, bezel, and bracelet links are beveled to create a more sculptural shape. In addition, the case width has been adjusted to match the width of the bracelet, which is tapered to 20 mm, increasing flexibility. This kind of attention to detail is a big part of the joy of wearing Anatom. Inside, the original quartz is replaced by the Rado R766 caliber, a self-winding mechanical movement with an anti-magnetic Nivachron(TM) hairspring with a power reserve of up to 72 hours and a date display at 6 o’clock. Contradictory fun It’s incredibly comfortable to wear as it fits perfectly to your body, yet is surrounded by an outstandingly bold and stylish beauty. This contradictory charm is consistent throughout the new edition. It has an organic curvaceous beauty, has no sharp bends, and yet has a somewhat square feel. The maximum lightness of high-tech ceramic components and the incredible durability of the material are perfectly matched. It truly is the epitome of mechanical precision in the digital age. All elements solidify Anatom’s status as a modern symbol of the 21st century. It is an expression of elegance achieved through constant refinement, and perhaps even symbolizes the wearer’s life path and pursuit of self-improvement. Now, let’s take a closer look at the five models.

The rhodium-colored hands complement the all-black timepiece and are reminiscent of the stars in a clear night sky.

The case features polished stainless steel end pieces and an additional 38 diamonds, while the first four connecting links of the bracelet also feature 124 diamonds. These gemstones give this timepiece an attractive and unmistakable sparkle. Clear design evolution All five new products are special models that leverage Rado’s expertise in materials technology and ergonomics. However, there is also a clear evolution in design overall. Thanks to its evolution from model to model, the Anatom’s ability to appeal to a wide range of watch enthusiast tastes cements its status as an icon of modern design. With decades of history under its belt, Anatom definitely has an exciting future ahead of it. The charm of high-tech ceramic – a feel like no other This is the essence of Rado’s high-tech ceramics and why we say “Feel it.” High-tech ceramics are highly durable and are the result of Rado’s know-how and experience as Masters of Materials. Beautiful and lightweight, it boasts excellent scratch resistance. The quality of the material is outstanding, but what’s even more impressive is that the high-tech ceramic is gentle on the skin and has a silky smooth feel. No matter what size or design your watch is, it feels as if it’s always been on your wrist. Watches that use ceramic, especially on the bracelet, have a unique feel that provides an unforgettable experience. History of high-tech ceramics Rado first introduced high-tech ceramics to the world in 1986. Its pleasant feel, durability, scratch resistance, and amazing lightness quickly won the hearts of watch enthusiasts around the world. High-tech ceramics are the product of cutting-edge science and are manufactured under extremely strict conditions, setting them apart from traditional ceramics. The process of molding high-purity zirconium oxide powder into a specific shape and baking it at high temperatures to create a watch case is truly state-of-the-art technology. A new method developed by Rado involves mixing mineral powder with a plastic carrier medium and injecting it into a precision mold at a pressure of approximately 1,000 bar. After cooling, the parts are removed from the mold and undergo a chemical melting process to dissolve the binder, followed by final sintering at 1,450°C. This precise sintering process creates high-tech ceramics with a density and hardness that far exceeds that of regular ceramics. This manufacturing process requires rocket-like precision. The formed part shrinks by approximately 25% during sintering, tightening the particles and eliminating voids. For this reason, it is necessary to accurately calculate the mold during molding. With a Vickers hardness of 1,250, the case undergoes final machining and finishing using diamond tools to transform it into a stunning Rado timepiece. Anatom Anatom
