The Rado DiaStar Original Automatic R12171263 is a distinctive expression of Rado's innovative approach to watch design, combining an iconic silhouette with contemporary materials and mechanical performance. Measuring 30mm in diameter, this refined timepiece features a yellow-gold-tone Ceramos™ PVD bezel, a striking yellow mosaic-style dial, and a stainless-steel and PVD construction that gives the watch its unmistakable presence.

An Iconic Rado Design

The DiaStar Original occupies an important place in Rado's design history. Recognized for its distinctive case and highly scratch-resistant materials, the collection represents Rado's long-standing pursuit of watches designed to combine lasting beauty with innovative construction.

This 30mm interpretation brings that signature aesthetic into a more refined proportion. The combination of the sculpted bezel, integrated bracelet, and layered dial creates a sophisticated timepiece with a strong visual identity.

A Striking Yellow Mosaic-Style Dial

One of the defining features of the R12171263 is its yellow dial with a multi-layered mosaic-style design. Different shapes receive different finishes and are positioned at varying levels, creating a sense of depth and dimension across the dial.

Eleven clear crystal stones complete the dial, adding subtle points of light against the intricate surface. Super-LumiNova® details on the hands provide enhanced visibility when ambient light is reduced.

Ceramos™ Bezel & Faceted Sapphire Crystal

The watch features a distinctive yellow-gold-tone Ceramos™ bezel with PVD coating. Ceramos™ is one of Rado's signature high-tech ceramic materials, developed to combine durability with a luxurious appearance.

Above the dial, a faceted sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating adds another layer of technical refinement. The faceted construction interacts with light while the anti-reflective treatment helps maintain clear visibility of the intricate dial.

Rado Calibre R586 Automatic Movement

Inside the DiaStar Original is the Rado Calibre R586 automatic movement. The movement provides a 48-hour power reserve and includes a date display for everyday practicality.

The movement incorporates an antimagnetic Nivachron™ hairspring and has been tested and adjusted in five positions. This testing exceeds standard requirements and is intended to support the watch's reliability and precision.

Designed for Distinctive Everyday Luxury

At 30mm, this DiaStar Original offers a refined presence on the wrist without sacrificing the bold design character associated with the collection. Its yellow-gold-tone bracelet and bezel create a cohesive appearance, while the intricate yellow dial adds an unmistakable Rado signature.
