Two sizes actually - 37mm and 45mm.
I’ve really fancied the 45mm one ever since it was released - if one turned up second hand at a good price I’d be quite tempted...

I like the Rado.. but no such thing as a Swatch group limited edition.. they will be in next years sale for sure.. then they are decent value as long as you intend on keeping it

Had the 37mm version. Bloody lovely. They've just announced a 42mm version which should be perfect size wise for most people.
I genuinely didn't find the 37mm too small (7.5inch wrist)
The rake/revolution have a limited edition, 37mm ghost bezel, and the new 42mm is available on beads of rice (lovely!)
I was very close to buying the Rake Ghost Captain version (grey one, above) but the 19mm lugs ruined it for me. Think I’d find that annoying.
Rado is also coming out with the Captain Cook MK2.

There was also a ladies version back then.

Just had a little read of the Hodkinee article.
Rather smitten with the thought of owning a Ghost Captain.
One of chrono24 went rather reasonably
Hmmm, will have to keep an eye of for one
Ghost Captain works well on 20mm straps, and a few chunky 18mm NATOs fit perfectly.
Yep, perfect size for me.
