ow available at auction from Second Vintage This Rado Rising Star presents a classic 1970s design, distinguished by its vertically brushed silver dial and striking red date display. Fitted with its original signed folded-link bracelet, this piece delivers an authentic period aesthetic characterized by its distinctive cushion case geometry and the brand's signature rotating anchor logo. Brand: Rado Model: Rising Star Reference Number: 11994 Movement: Automatic, caliber AS 1902 Dial: Silver with vertical brushed finish, applied indices, and red date display Case Size: 36 mm (excluding the crown) Case Material: Stainless steel Production Year: 1970s Condition: Good vintage condition.

Dial and Hands The silver dial features a striking vertical brushed finish that provides a dynamic backdrop for the applied block indices with their contrasting black inserts. At twelve o'clock, the signature rotating Rado anchor logo provides a touch of kinetic visual interest, balanced by a vibrant red date display positioned at three o'clock. The dial is patinated with scattered rust-colored spotting across its surface, giving the watch a distinct, aged character. The baton-style hands, also featuring black inserts, show visible oxidation and minor surface degradation on their metal portions. Case and Crystal The stainless steel cushion-shaped case displays honest vintage wear, featuring brushed top surfaces that transition into polished flanks. The case exhibits moderate scratches and small dings visible throughout, consistent with its age and use, while the edges remain reasonably defined despite showing signs of wear. A polished steel bezel ring is integrated into the case design, displaying minor wear and scratches that align with the rest of the case. The winding crown is signed with the Rado anchor logo and shows moderate surface wear and scratches. The flat acrylic crystal presents light surface scratches visible under direct lighting, with no major cracks or chips. Movement Inside beats the gold-tone automatic caliber AS 1902, clearly engraved with "RADO", "25 JEWELS", "SWISS", "911", and "906" alongside the caliber number. The movement displays surface scratches on the rotor and bridges, with some dirt and grime present in the recesses. The timegrapher records +30+35s/day. Performing well within expected vintage tolerances; running strong and steady. Strap The watch is fitted with its original signed stainless steel folded-link bracelet, maintaining the authentic period aesthetic. The clasp proudly bears the Rado name alongside the anchor logo.

Remarks This Rado Rising Star appeals through its highly characteristic 1970s cushion case and original signed folded-link bracelet.
