What Is a Skeleton Dial?
A skeleton dial showcases the inner workings of a watch by exposing its movement through openworked designs. The material is strategically removed from both the dial and the movement components, allowing the wearer to marvel at the intricate craftsmanship and mechanical complexity.
How Is It Crafted?
Skeletonization requires skilled artisans to carefully cut away non-essential material from the movement without compromising its structural integrity. The exposed gears, bridges, and wheels are often adorned with decorative finishes like perlage, Côtes de Genève, or engraving, elevating the visual appeal.
Why Are Skeleton Dials Popular?
These watches are as much about artistry as they are about functionality. They appeal to collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the transparency and intricacy of mechanical watchmaking.
