Vintage Rado Musketeer V Automatic Day Date Silver Dial TV Case 36mm Watch Box

About this watch

A 1970s Rado Musketeer V automatic on its integrated stainless steel bracelet. The silver sunburst dial carries applied baton markers, the Musketeer crest with its red fleur-de-lis shield, a day-date window at 3 o'clock and Rado's red rotating anchor at 12, which turns as the watch moves. The cushion "TV" style case is set with two gold-tone faceted plaques above and below the crystal, a signature Rado look of the era. Supplied in a Rado presentation box.

Brand heritage

Rado traces its roots to the Schlup & Co. movement factory founded in 1917 in Lengnau, Switzerland, and has made watches under the Rado name since the late 1950s. On vintage Rado automatics the free-moving anchor symbol on the dial identifies a self-winding movement. The Musketeer was one of Rado's popular automatic day-date lines of the 1970s.
