The most interesting dial in the world?
Out of my entire collection, this Rado Golden Horse 1957 has the most interesting and beautiful dial of them all. In fact, it’s not even close.
Some of the features:
Blue fume
Sunburst
Applied indices
Rotating Rado anchor
Red date numbers
Applied gold kissing seahorse emblem
Pie pan dial
Polished date window
Looks blue, or purple or black based on lighting conditions OR blue AND purple AND black!
And maybe a few more features I’ve overlooked!
And those polished Dauphine hands just set it all off!
Any challengers for “most interesting dial” out there?

I have been collecting watches for over 30 years. I like expensive watches, inexpensive watches, vintage watches, homage watches and everything in between!

I really apprecaite the retro charm. Just seems like something a man of good taste in the late 60’s would have
I love these retro Rado Golden Horse models - the green and red dials are 🔥🔥🔥IMO

I agree!
Honestly thats such a great watch for a 1957 vintage Rado. It would definitely hold up to the design language of this year 🔥

Thank you! This is actually a Rado reissue, so they are available now. They aren’t in production anymore, so don’t sleep on them!
Excellent selection!
Pretty!
I tried the green sunburst Cap Cook and thought the same thing. Rado crushes these dials, so good.
Kurono has a urushi tree sap that’s hand polished (by thumb) that is up there in pantheon of nice dials :

That thing is awesome! I’ve never seen anything else like it.
