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.

high-end watches are crazy. this is a 500 grand jacob & co astronomia:
they have tons of these, all with free-floating three-axis tourbillions.
I never liked Jacod & Co, I don’t find their watches useful at all. Imagine walking and your hand goes on the wall.
Imagine someone with Jacob walking near a wall…
If you own a watch like this, probably someone else is walking for you. /s
they also have ones covered completely with diamonds so they can’t be read. usability is probably not their primary concern.
Just insane that thing even works. Crazy engineering.
This is not a watch you wear, this is a display watch/collectors item.
Probably a good investment piece too.
