Skeleton

Introducing the Cruise “Caliber Skeleton”- the latest iteration in our growing NAVIGATOR watch collection offering a harmony of intensity and ingenuity - which brings you into the beating heart of an icon, showing you the intricate inner workings of a powerhouse automatic caliber movement.

In choosing a skeleton model to build out the Navigator offering with a limited edition of 30 timepieces, Coralie Charriol continues to honor her father’s trailblazing heritage. The first Charriol Skeleton watch was a limited edition 18k gold Celtic watch developed 30 years ago in collaboration with the movements manufacturer Frédéric Piguet - an exquisite example of Haute Horlogerie.Three decades later, it is time for Coralie to give the complex structural style her own interpretation. 

"Skeleton watches are prized and collected by aficionados of watchmaking ; traditionally, it is an insider’s piece, and therefore generally reserved for masculine lines. I like challenges and I set out to design a skeleton watch that would present the mechanics in a style that would appeal to our female clientele. Women love sophistication and I think the elements we have designed are the perfect showcase for the precision it contains. The new piece is very refined but not too precious; it is a watch that can follow me in all circumstances and remains one of the most special pieces in my collection – especially since it reminds me of the skeleton watch that my father regularly wore.” Coralie Charriol.

Cased in the newly designed Navigator Cruise 36mm diameter, the presentation is a feat of Swiss engineering built to stand the daily wear of intrepid adventurers.  Charriol collaborated closely with Swiss caliber manufacturer Sellita to select top-of-the-line mechanics with the interior on display. The watch has an automatic movement with 38-hour power reserve, personalized bridges and oscillating weight, an inner ring set with 12 diamond hour-markers decorates the circumference of the sapphire dial.

The steel case features a bezel set with 36 full-cut white diamonds totaling 2 carats. The stainless steel link bracelets with DLC coating and a quick-release interchangeable bracelet system remain signatures of the Navigator collection.

“In the delicate detail and precise design, the unseen work of the master is now made visible”

Just as inside every woman of action is a meticulous strategist, the new limited edition (numbered pieces 001-030) Cruise “Caliber Skeleton” sees through to the craftsmanship and perfectionism behind this dynamic Navigator timepiece
