Captain Cook Discover Black
The Captain Cook Discover Black embodies the identity of the Captain Cook collection in a construction entirely focused on black high-tech ceramic. Its 40.7mm case, domed sapphire crystal and fixed ceramic bezel create a watch with balanced proportions. The black sunray-finish dial features a wave pattern created by laser engraving.
Design and features
The polished black high-tech ceramic case measures 40.7mm in diameter and 12.3mm in thickness. It incorporates crown protection as well as a screw-down crown.
The three-link bracelet combines outer links in matte black high-tech ceramic with polished central links. It is paired with a triple titanium folding clasp with quick adjustment in three positions.
The black sunray-finish dial features polished black applied indexes, skeletonized hands and Rado’s characteristic moving anchor. The indexes and hands feature white Super-LumiNova® details.
Movement and performance
The Captain Cook Discover Black is equipped with the R763 automatic calibre with 25 jewels. This movement offers an 80-hour power reserve and uses an antimagnetic Nivachron™ hairspring. The movement is adjusted in five positions.
The screw-down crown contributes to the watch’s water resistance to 150m.
