Sliding this Rado over your wrist feels like a lingering touch of late afternoon sun. The brushed gold-tone bangle doesn’t just rest; it holds the pulse with a quiet, honeyed warmth. It catches the ambient light with a soft, satin glow, providing a serene contrast to the sharp, dark indices that march around its ivory dial. It is a piece that feels fluid and organic, behaving more like a sculptural adornment than a mere tool for time.

Known as a pioneer of material science in Le Locle, Rado reimagined the wrist watch as a piece of sculpture during the late 20th century. This reference 133.9670.2 is a relic of that design-led era, housing a precise Swiss Quartz heartbeat within a case that flows seamlessly into its rigid bangle architecture. It represents the height of the 1990s minimalist movement, where the brand successfully transitioned from rugged tool watches to high-fashion jewelry timepieces. Preserved with its original box, this specimen remains a testament to the brand’s legacy of unconventional shapes and unwavering Swiss reliability.
