VIDEO: The Rado HyperChrome Captain Cook, live on the wrist

We’ve already given you a pretty thorough look at Rado’s pint-sized and patriotic Captain Cook, but while still photography is great at showing the finer details – that sunbrush finish and crisp dial printing, for example – video gives you a much more holistic picture. If you want to know how that dial looks under … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The Rado HyperChrome Captain Cook, live on the wrist appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Vintage inspiration in a modern package – the Rado HyperChrome Captain Cook 45mm

Rado’s HyperChrome Captain Cook has made waves this year, mostly due to the nearly pitch perfect 37mm reissue. And while there’s a lot to like about that watch, I suspect that the comparatively petite case size will be a deal-breaker for some people. But that’s OK because Rado has covered their bases by releasing a … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Vintage inspiration in a modern package – the Rado HyperChrome Captain Cook 45mm appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
