No its not Throwback Sunday yet. But today, we have a special feature by Rado showcasing their models in green. Eight different models. Is green the new black?
We covered green dials as the focus for 2021 earlier, see this article published in Chronos Japan #95 for that discussion, but here is Rado’s presentation on their green models. Perhaps we may do a Throwback of 6 best green dials for 2021 later.
Press release focus on Rado models in green
Naturally: Green!
Green symbolises a new beginning and confidence. The colour has a balancing, calming or refreshing effect – and sometimes acts like a shot of vitamins for the soul that puts us in a good mood. Green can be combined with almost any other colour, but always sets an accent as well. It is a timeless and beautiful colour for individualists, one that sends a personal signal without being obtrusive – just like the watches from Rado.
That green is never just green is evident in the many different nuances, such as the Amazon green of the Rado Golden Horse, which takes you straight to your next tropical adventure, or the “slightly greyed English Green” of the True Thinline Les CouleursTM Le Corbusier, which Rado has taken from the renowned architect’s colour scale and translated into a watch housed entirely in high-tech ceramic.
Moss and fir-green dials with the True Open Heart, for example, or the angular True Square, prove to have a real talent for combination and serve as contemporary complements to any outfit, whatever the colour.
And the DiaMaster’s sophisticated dial shimmers in a mysterious jade green, which is taken up in the refined leather strap.
Is green the new black or blue? We don’t know. But we’re certain that everyone will find a Rado watch in their favourite shade of green. Discover the entire range of our green models at www.rado.com.
