By: Vivian Lau

Key Word: the first watch that introduced high-tech ceramic into watch-making industry
Design feature: fusing wristwatch and bracelet into one
Material: high-tech ceramic

Rado began to develop materials that are suitable for watch-making in 1980s. They focused on high-tech ceramic which was only applied in aerospace technology and high-end medical appliance. This material, light, wear-proof, high temperature resistant, and anti-skin-allergy, is a perfection solution as a watch material. In 1982, Rado intergral was born. Intergal fuses wristwatch and bracelet into one and comes with high-tech bracelet connected by iconic I stainless steel chain. Integral is born with unparalleled elegance and comfort.

And here comes the Intergral Jubile which is a bold and avant-garde expression of Rota Integral and also one of my favorite model in this line . Inergral Jubile keeps soft and smooth shape like a bracelet and provides the iconic flexibility and comfort. The curving case keeps shape of simple lines while the edges are added with two rows of exquisite diamonds, bringing a kind of subtle elegance and charm.

The dial has a sapphire crystal cover with black metal coated. This dial, here, transforms into a nice screen, open and straight. It comes with silver hour, minute and second hands. Two rows of three diamonds marks 2, 3, 4, 8 , 9 and 10 o'clock in a symmetrical manner , very and impressive. Another model with mirror face is also available, demonstrating flowing operation.
