Offering an elegant complement to professional and casual wear that can be worn every day, the thin-profile Rado Integral women's watch (model R20488202) will sit demurely and lightly on your wrist. Made of high-tech ceramics, this fashionable watch is also amazingly durable and virtually scratch-proof. Amazingly thin, it has tall, rectangular silver-tone ceramic case that measures 18mm wide (0.71 inches). It frames a shimmery gray dial that includes silver dial markers, Arabic numerals at the 20-minute points, and thin silvery hands. The fashionable bracelet band is composed of rounded silver ceramic pieces surrounded by silver stainless steel thin, H-shaped links. Other features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, ultra-precise Swiss quartz analog movement, and water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet). The raw material for Rado's high-tech ceramics is a very fine powder that is pressed or injected into a mold. The powder is compacted into scratchproof ceramic parts in a sintering blast furnace of 1,450 degrees Celsius. These parts are given a brilliant shin by polishing with diamond dust. Highly resistant to scratches, Rado's high-tech ceramics rate an 8 on a scratch-proof scale of 1 to 10 (with aluminum rated less than 3, gold less than 4, steel less than 5, and diamond topping the scale at 10).
