Description
The Rado True Square Automatic Open Heart is a unisex Swiss automatic with a square case and a white dial. It suits anyone who wants a distinctive, modern shape in a 38mm size rather than the usual round dress watch.
The case and the bracelet are both made of ceramic, and the watch is protected by sapphire crystal. A Swiss automatic movement drives the analogue display, and the foldover clasp keeps the bracelet secure. Water resistance is rated at 50 metres, which covers splashes and everyday handwashing.
The standout detail is the Open Heart name, which points to a dial that shows part of the movement at work. At 9.7mm thick with a 20mm lug width, it is slim enough for daily wear and sits comfortably under a cuff.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear the Rado True Square in the shower or pool?
The True Square is rated to 50 m, which suits splashes, rain and handwashing. It is generally not advised for swimming or showering, since hot water and steam can stress the seals over time. For regular water sport, a dedicated diver with a higher rating is the better choice.
Will a 38mm square case fit my wrist?
The 38mm case with a 20mm lug width and a 9.7mm thickness suits most average wrists comfortably. The square shape can look larger than a round 38mm watch, so very small wrists may find it prominent. Being unisex, it works on both slim and medium wrists.
How does ceramic compare with a steel bracelet for daily wear?
Ceramic resists scratches far better than steel, so the case and bracelet keep their finish longer. It is also light and comfortable against the skin. The trade-off is that a hard knock can chip it, whereas steel tends to dent. For desk work and daily wear, ceramic is a strong alternative.
Does this automatic watch need a battery?
The Rado True Square Automatic Open Heart uses a Swiss automatic movement, so it needs no battery. It winds from wrist motion, and if it sits unworn for a day or two it may stop and need a short wind or a few days of wear. Service is generally advised every several years.
Is the white dial suitable for formal outfits?
The white dial and square ceramic case give a clean, modern look that works with business wear and evening outfits. The slim 9.7mm case slides under a shirt cuff easily. It is also unisex, so it can be worn by anyone who likes a geometric style.
Who is this Rado True Square suited to compared with a round dress watch?
It suits wearers who want a distinctive geometric shape and a scratch-resistant ceramic build rather than a traditional round dress watch. The sapphire crystal adds to durability. If you want deeper water resistance, a steel-cased alternative may serve better for sport use.
Editor's take
Rado built its reputation on ceramic, and the True Square Automatic Open Heart is a clear example for anyone who prefers a square case to a round one. The unisex 38mm size and white dial keep it versatile, and the True Square collection gives it a recognisable silhouette.
The key materials are the ceramic case, the ceramic bracelet and the sapphire crystal. Together they resist scratches far better than steel and mineral glass, which matters on a watch worn daily. A Swiss automatic movement drives the analogue display, and the foldover clasp holds the bracelet firmly.
The limit is water resistance. At 50 m the watch handles splashes and rain, but it is not meant for swimming or showering, so sport-minded buyers should look elsewhere. Ceramic is also hard but can chip on a sharp impact, and the listing gives no calibre name or power reserve figure.
It suits those who want a design-led automatic for office and evening wear, with a slim 9.7mm profile. Buyers wanting stronger water resistance could consider a steel-cased automatic from Tissot or Oris. For a distinctive square ceramic piece, the R27073712 stays an easy pick.
