By opening up and stripping down his high-end, time-only automatic caliber, Romain has created a truly contemporary skeleton watch that is a technical and artistic tour de force. Not only do the skeletonized, bridges and mainplate help to reveal the mesmerizing mechanics of the in-house movement, they also provide the perfect platform for the Romain Gauthier anglage specialists to demonstrate their immense skills.

For each Insight Micro-Rotor Squelette movement features as many as 250 hours devoted to anglage alone, that’s to say the beveling, softening, smoothing and polishing by hand of the bridges and mainplate, in an extraordinary demonstration of watchmaking artistry.

This example is in platinum featuring an oven-fired, Grand Feu black enamel dial made in house by Romain’s wife Ana Gauthier, with black dial accents,  bridges and mainplate beveled, softened, smoothed and polished by hand; and rhodium-treated micro-rotor, plaquettes and balance wheel.
