The Rado Captain Cook Over-Pole

Our Festive 2026 Malaysia issue of La Revue des Montres is led by a cover story on Rado, highlighting the brand&rsquo;s latest novelties and the highly anticipated return of the Rado Captain Cook Over-Pole Limited Edition. A watch that embodies exploration, heritage, and modern innovation, it stands as a fitting symbol of where contemporary watchmaking finds itself today.

When Rado reinterpreted the 1962 Over-Pole in 2022, the brand captured that spirit of discovery with the introduction of the R862 manual-winding worldtimer calibre. Offering an 80-hour power reserve with three hands and a date display, the movement provided a solid foundation for a modern revival that respected history while embracing progress.

The tactile pleasure of winding the manual movement adds a sense of intimacy to the watch. Without the mass of a rotor, the Over-Pole maintains a slim 10.9 mm profile, allowing it to sit elegantly on the wrist while retaining the robustness expected of a worldtimer. Through the sapphire caseback, the movement reveals refined finishing including C&ocirc;tes de Gen&egrave;ve decoration, annealed blue screws, and gold-coloured engravings, while each watch bears an individual sequence number underscoring its exclusivity.
