Known for his ascetically elegant style and pared-down aesthete in his product designs, Morrison’s slicked up limited edition Ceramica with hands, counters and crown in gold had both the watch and design purists swooned.

Evidently, his ‘less is more’ ethos melds with Rado‘s watch-making philosophy like pesto and pasta, and the partnership that has blossomed into a fully-fledged collection just seems inevitable.RADO – R5.5

Essentialist abounds on the new R5.5 chronograph, an emphatic display of Morrison’s deft touches. Helmed by fluid and harmonious edges and lines, its modest 38mm square case in matte black ceramic with integrated ceramic bracelet is subtle and sensual.

Exemplifying minimalist chic is the sleek dial with lithe markers and hands as well as two utilitarian chronograph sub- dials that complete this sports timekeeper. Powered by a quartz movement, the R5.5 is also available in an elementary two-hand version.
