True ‘skeletonization’ also includes the trimming away of any non-essential metal on the bridge, plate, wheel train or any other mechanical part of the watch, leaving only a minimalist ‘bare’ skeleton of the movement required for functionality.

      They aren’t too expensive really, and I think it’s a great thing for people to have something like this that doesn’t rely on anything digital at all.
