Instructions for use of the Chronograph ‘The Original’
You have acquired a chronograph that unites ageless design and advanced technology in an exceptional time piece: reliable, scratchproof and
water-resistent to a depth of 30 m (98 ft), exactly as one has come to
expect from a Rado watch. The chronograph functions are easy to operate
and allow time measurements accurate to 1⁄10th of a second.

NB: After every operation involving the crown, push it back to the

Battery
The end of the battery’s life is
displayed by the second hand
making 4-second jumps. Your
watch will continue to run for a
few days but you should have the
battery changed as soon as possible by your Rado retailer.
We recommend that you have
the watch tested for waterresistance at the same time.
Approximate battery life:
2 years.
