Rado Captain Cook x Tennis Limited Edition — 39mm (R32222108) celebrates 40 years of Rado’s iconic partnership with tennis, marking the brand’s first major sponsorship at the 1985 Swiss Open in Gstaad. Limited to 1,985 pieces worldwide, this exceptional timepiece honours decades of precision and performance, both on and off the court.
The polished 39 mm stainless-steel case features a polished steel turning bezel with a brushed plasma ceramic insert engraved with markers and numerals filled with white Super-LumiNova®. A box-shaped sapphire crystal — engineered over 2,000°C and coated with anti-reflective layers on both sides — delivers unrivalled clarity and scratch resistance. Water-resistant to 30 bar (300 m), this watch is built for high-performance durability.
Driven by the Calibre R763 automatic movement, regulated in five positions with an antimagnetic Nivachron™ hairspring and boasting an 80-hour power reserve, this model ensures robust, precise timekeeping. The ruthenium-to-white gradient dial enhances visual elegance with rhodium-coloured Super-LumiNova® coated hands and indexes. A unique tennis-inspired detail places yellow Super-LumiNova® markers at 3, 6, 8, and 12 o’clock — representing 15, 30, 40, and game point. The rotating anchor on a ruby backplate along with the date window at 3 o’clock add depth and sophistication.
Completing the design is a polished and brushed stainless-steel rice-grain bracelet with a secure three-fold clasp — plus three additional NATO-style textile straps (blue, green, and orange), all equipped with Rado’s EasyClip system for fast, tool-free swapping. A true collector’s piece, embodying the spirit of competition and Swiss watchmaking excellence.
