I have 3 Now including a Capt.Cook with the SS Case and they Are Absolutely Great Timepieces...The Diamonds in the Jublie' Diastars are Real Sparklers not the POC Like on Some Other Brand We all Know :P...I Want one Like Erics Now and Rado has come out with a Couple New Designs from Basel that Are Awesome :) Looks great! I've been thinking of getting a blue dialed one since I picked up a used silver dialed one a couple of months ago. As I understand it, these come in three sized, including a 38mm width.
It's funny: the one I got have a heavily scratched and gouged stainless steel bracelet (now polished) and caseback, yet the ceramic covered upper case and sapphire crystal were utterly pristine.
I was told by a rep from Rado, that their ceramic cases rate a 9 on the Mohs scale of hardness-- the same as sapphire!
