The Tissot Sculpture Line Skeleton watch really jumps out at me. Very creative internal design. Quite amazing how this watch combines the elegant gears with the classic “clock-like” face. If I had the money, this would be the next watch on my list to buy.
It’s a true. Tissot made a really nice job with this model. It was a little surprise to see it this year at Baselworld. Allissia, we notice that you prefer skeleton models.
these are nice looking watches. Interesting dials with lots of details, just as it is meant to be. for me, the tradition is by far the classiest, though the t-race collection also looks magnificent.
I do like the skeletal models, they seem to catch my eye the easiest. Watches like the Master Grande Tradition A’ Tourbillon 43 by Jaeger LeCoultre is also a different kind that really pops out at me. There are a few full face models that I would suggest as well.
And by the way, I might get to Baselworld one of these years. I’m hoping to anyways.
Of course, it is an another level of haute horology. What do you think about the Omega Hour Vision Co-Axial Skeleton Platinum? It was a real pleasure to see it this year at Baselworld.
That is a nice piece. The creativity with the darker ring mounted in the face is interesting. But I also think they could have done something more with the case. The face is really different though with how the gears fit. Gold faced watches are more of an interest I think because of how classy they are.
