Rado breaks new ground again.

Dang. 43mm? Pass. Not that I'm in the market for another watch other than what's already on order...

The Hyperchrome is a small wearing watch. My 40mm Hyperchrome Golden Horse wears significantly smaller than my 38mm Centrix. I am also assuming that the discreet nature of the matte grey will only help keep the size down, Having said that, I wish it were smaller.

On order?

Not really, one's been on pre-order for months, the other also was ordered a month or so ago. Neither will be here for at least another month and a half to two months.

43mm kills it for me, but I do like the zen garden dial. My Bathys has a TiCN external coating which is very durable and nice to look at, so I suspect this could be really nice in person. I wish it were a bit smaller though.

Yup.

With that small crown, lightweight materials and relatively short lugs, 43 mm seems very doable for that watch. 41mm would have probably been even nicer, if for no other reason than to get the date window closer to the edge.

All of that and Modern Rados aren't large. I am not sure why they are now following a decade old trend, instead of holding their ground or leading the way.

Very cool to see new materials being used.
