Probably the most beautiful watch I own.
Rado Golden Horse from the 60s.
36,5mm of diameter.
Slick and thin. Doesn't scream for attention but yet can't get my eyes out of it.
Between classy and casual.
A very good daily for me.
As summer is coming and skin gets tanned, gold is even better.
I'd love to read your opinions about it!
Ps: I don't even like modern Rado watches.. I just like their old models haha
Hello everyone!
Wanted to get that Rado serviced because I hasn't been serviced since decades. However I have questions regarding the price.
350€ for:
Entire service and cleaning (also changing gaskets etc)
Changing crystal for similar without cyclop.
Is it too much? The watch is almost 70 years old.
What do you guys think of this and of my preferences?
I think this is it. This is my watch endgame.
Even though it's not that expensive, I just can't resist that look.
My photos really don't do it justice, the dial has an amazing "sunburst" effect. I'll try to make other pictures.
Do you like it? I can't wait to have that watch forever by my side.
