Swiss watch brand Rado presents the Captain Cook x Cameron Norrie Limited Edition, created in partnership with one of tennis’s most compelling stars.
The Captain Cook x Cameron Norrie Limited Edition features a 42mm polished stainless steel case and crown. The watch has a polished stainless steel rotating bezel with a polished green high-tech ceramic bezel insert with engraved numbers and markers in matt white Super-LumiNova®.
The colour of the bezel insert is perfectly complemented by the green to white gradient dial on display through the box-shaped sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides. The iconic moving anchor symbol is visible on a purple backplate between the 12 o’clock position and the centre of the dial.
The grey central hour and minute hands are coated with white Super-LumiNova® and the tip of the central seconds hand is coated in yellow Super-LumiNova®, a playful nod to the colour of tennis balls.
The sport is also subtly referenced by a green flange with yellow Super-LumiNova® dots at the 3 o’clock, 6 o’clock, 8 o’clock and 12 o’clock positions, corresponding neatly to tennis’s unique “15/30/40/game” scoring convention.
It is presented on a polished and brushed stainless steel bracelet with a titanium three-fold clasp and Rado’s innovative EasyClip system.
A pair of strap options is available including a classic black leather strap with a stainless steel extendable folding clasp or a green and white NATO-style textile strap.
The polished screw down stainless steel caseback has a tinted sapphire crystal that features Cameron Norrie’s silver-coloured signature. Engraved on the caseback are the words LIMITED EDITION, ONE OUT OF 823, a reference to the limited-edition series size, which was chosen to reflect the tennis star’s birthday, August 23rd.
Powering the Rado Captain Cook x Cameron Norrie Limited Edition is a Rado calibre R763, an automatic movement that has been adjusted in five positions. It is equipped with a Nivachron™ balance spring, which makes the watch particularly resistant to the magnetic fields. This movement offers an impressive 80-hour power reserve.
The Rado Cameron Norrie watch is water resistant to 30 bar (300 metres). The watch is delivered with a green leather pouch highlighted by Cameron’s signature, along with a Limited Edition Certificate.
