Vintage Scratchproof Rado Balboa K161 Tungsten Sapphire Crystal 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 (35mm wide without crown) and on the wrist size/circumference (fits up to 20.5cm). 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 Men's watch, though.
You are buying a vintage RADO piece, with a unique RADO mesh strap.
