The Rado captain Cook was a relatively svelte 35.5mm , and didn't look very different from most other dive watches of the time , until one looked closer . The domed acrylic crystal featured a magnifier over a window at 3 , which displayed the date , red on white . The Rolex Submariner would have to wait seven years to get a date display , in the ref 1680 of 1969 .
