Captain Cook

Rado's heritage diver revived as a modern collector's piece. The 1962 original was one of the first Swiss-made divers with a non-metallic case; the 2017 reissue restored the 37 mm size, domed sapphire crystal, and cushion lugs of the original while adding a date complication and ETA 2824-2 movement. Successive variants added bronze and 42 mm sizes. The 37 mm steel version is the benchmark for accessible heritage-diver value.

Year introduced: 19621 reference
