RARE Scratchproof Chronograph Rado Diastar 35mm Tungsten Carbide Turquoise Black 538.0470.3 Watch
Important disclaimer about watch gender:
Is this a Men or Women watch? Well! It depends on personal taste, colour, style & on how big you find the watch case for yourself (34mm wide) and on the wrist size/circumference (fits up to 18.75cm). Tastes differ. For example, a small (allegedly ladies) watch may fit a man with a small wrist while not fitting a woman with a large wrist. Always check size, dimensions, photos & measure against your wrist before buying. It's more of a Ladies watch, though. No gender obligations here.
Extremely rare model and colour. Well looked after.
