Rado: Model/ Caliber/ Data Thread

[Tim.]

I'm starting this threat in attempt to consolidate the data in one place and hopefully with the help of the members collect lots more. I'm adding the spreadsheets we already have to start with. Please post as much information as you can (model, ref#, rado cal, mvt cal, date code, case number, comments) and we'll eventually use it to create a spreadsheet or add it to an existing one.

Vintage 2824 Spreadsheet.



Vintage Diastar 0/1/1E Spreadsheet.




This page from Wristwatch News Volume 2, Issue 3, has lots of Vintage reference number data, it was found via a post from pratama, some detective work by Scott and a little digging by me (very little really).





Here is a table of known 3 digit prefixes i.e 123.XXXX.X, as we know, in an 8 digit ref#, it's these first 3 digits that are related to the movement caliber. We know some of these, I think Henry and Scott have a reasonable knowledge base and will be able to fill some of the blanks. All members can simply reply to the thread and post the data: i.e. 636 = ETA 2836.


*A- Includes both chronometer and non-chronometer movements.

This is the prefix data from the newly discovered pages.
