The Rado DiaStar Original X Tej Chauhan Special Edition R12165155 puts a vivid spin on Rado’s iconic DiaStar lineage. Its compact yet bold 38.0 mm x 45.0 mm helmet-shaped case features a radiant Ceramos™ bezel and mid-case in yellow gold-coloured PVD, blending lightweight ceramic toughness with metallic luster. The matte black, concave dial adds depth and contrast, with a striking combination of silver and blue printed minute tracks, relief-applied indices, and a neon-accented day-date display rendered in Tej Chauhan’s bespoke typography.
Inside, this standout timepiece is powered by Rado’s automatic Calibre R764, delivering a robust 80-hour power reserve, a 25-jewel configuration, and a Nivachron™ hairspring for enhanced resistance to magnetic fields and temperature variations. The skeletonized hour and minute hands with Super-LumiNova® and the vibrant neon-yellow seconds hand ensure crystal-clear legibility, while the precision movement is rigorously regulated in five positions for trustworthy accuracy.
Aside from its technical virtues, the DiaStar Original X Tej Chauhan is rich in visual storytelling. The avant-garde grey, pillow-shaped rubber strap—playfully inviting to the touch—is secured by a dark grey PVD-coated extendable clasp engraved with “Rado x TC”, while the underside bears expressive inscriptions like “The time is now” and “TC Souvenirs of The Near Future”. Altogether, this special edition is a vibrant fusion of mid-century futurism and modern industrial design, perfect for aficionados seeking a statement piece that blends heritage and bold artistry.
