Adrian Bosshard on how Rado is strengthening its position with collabs and limited editions

CEO Adrian Bosshard

Adrian Bosshard is relaxed, sitting in his office in Lengnau, Switzerland. Behind him is an artwork of the Swiss Alps, and in front, a selection of Rado watches. There’s one from the Integral collection that his wife gifted him 30 years ago, and a new model from the Captain Cook collection that he wears daily. Both highlight the Swiss brand’s high-tech ceramic, which, as he says “is a material that is fully proven because we see that more and more brands are starting to use it, like Blancpain, Omega, Longines, Hublot”.

The CEO adds that it is a sign that the material has huge advantages. “As Master of Materials, Rado has the highest experience in this field, and we are a step ahead in using it,” he adds, sharing that the brand is currently focusing on new colours, though R&D continues. “As with a sport, when you are winning, you cannot stay and rest, you have to work to stay on the winning level.” The former motorcycle racer would certainly know.
