MOVADO Museum Rose Gold Skeleton Dot
[ via SwissTime ]
Movado, the Swiss brand known for its modern design aesthetic, is celebrating its iconic Museum® dial and the upcoming launch of its new automatic collection, with an exceptional limited edition of 25 skeleton timepieces in 18K rose gold. In a dramatic exploration of the famous single dot dial design, a larger dot-shaped sapphire crystal aperture at 6 o'clock offers an intriguing glimpse into, and through, the movement's elegant regulating mechanism. Silhouetted through this window which doubles as a small seconds subdial is a striking red Movado "M". It unites the most critical parts of the mechanical movement, the escapement wheel and jeweled levers. The black dial is subtly detailed with red lettering and accents. A sapphire crystal exhibition case back reveals the full beauty of the finely-worked, hand-winding skeleton movement.
