Rado Unveils the Anatom Skeleton

When the Anatom debuted in 1983, its rectangular case— flowing organically into the integrated bracelet— and its gently curved form made an immediate impact. More than four decades later, the collection has evolved: since 2023, the modern Anatom has been crafted in the Rado’s signature high-tech ceramic rather than the hardmetal of the original. The new Anatom Skeleton marks a significant milestone within this lineage, becoming the first model in the series to showcase a skeletonized dial. At its core beats the automatic caliber R808, offering a robust power reserve of 80 hours. A Nivachron hairspring enhances resistance to magnetic fields and improves overall precision, while the movement is regulated in five positions for increased accuracy.

The open-worked design introduces a new dimension to the Anatom, adding visual depth without compromising the line’s distinctive character. Finely finished gears and ruthenium-toned plates and bridges are harmonized with the matte plasma finish of the 32.5 x 46.3mm case, which stands 11.5mm tall.

To preserve clarity, the minute track and hour markers are integrated on the rehaut in the form of applied Superluminova blocks. Skeletonized, faceted, gold-colored hour and minute hands are also treated with luminescent material to ensure legibility in low light. A cylindrical sapphire crystal with a gray metallized edge frames the dial and reinforces the watch’s architectural presence.

True to the Anatom’s ergonomic roots, the watch is paired with a gray rubber strap designed for durability and comfort. Resistant to UV radiation and wear, it adapts smoothly to the wrist. An extendable double-folding clasp ensures both security and ease of wear, underscoring the model’s everyday practicality. Pricing is marked at $4,600.
