The weekend has never tasted so sweet – especially when it involves pastries, bubbly and a major luxury watch brand.

Earlier this week, James and I met up with Rado, a Swiss watch brand, at the François Payard Patisserie in the Upper East Side (I brought him along because he’s a sucker for a well-built watch and macarons, obviously). Rado is a new-to-me brand, but has been in the game for over 50 years. They recently celebrated the launch of their new chocolate brown ceramic timepieces and I’ll just say this: I wish you could feel the watches and taste the pastries in person, because both are absolutely delicious!

What surprised me the most was how lightweight the watches felt – even in the men’s styles! Rado watches are made of a high-tech ceramic, which means it’s not only light and easy to wear, but scratch resistant and super durable. Win, win, win. I might have to steal the watch that James is wearing below.

Have you heard of Rado before? They’re a bit of a splurge, but a girl/guy can dream, right? I would love to hear your thoughts on the brand or your mutual love for watches, chocolates and sweets in the comments section! Happy Friday everyone!

Thank you Rado for sponsoring this post!
