(December 2012) - For the second year running Rado will be the Official Timekeeper of the Mubadala World Tennis Championship held at the Abu Dhabi International Tennis Complex at Zayed Sports City in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The tournament will be taking place for the fifth consecutive year and is one of the region’s most eagerly anticipated sporting events, bringing six of the world’s top ten tennis players on court, including Rado brand ambassador and world number three Andy Murray.

This year, the watch of the Mubadala World Tennis Championship will be the new Rado HyperChrome and in its role as Official Timekeeper, Rado will be present on court with the eye-catching Rado HyperChrome corner clock. The brand will also be hosting a hospitality area in the spectator village and will be exhibiting models from the Rado HyperChrome collection as well as providing some tennis related entertainment.

Rado HyperChrome: the perfect partner
The Rado HyperChrome represents a breakthrough in technology for Rado. Sophisticated injection moulding has enabled the creation of a single piece or ‘monobloc’ high-tech ceramic case. This makes the Rado HyperChrome an incredibly light yet hard watch that is even more comfortable to wear.

The Rado HyperChrome collection showcases the brand’s signature ability to combine stunning designs with the use of innovative materials to create products for modern living. With unrivalled comfort, durability and Swiss precision, the Rado HyperChrome is the ideal companion for an exciting tennis tournament.

The Rado HyperChrome is available in sleek black, pure white and – unique to Rado – platinum-coloured high-tech ceramic.
