This watch could put Raymond Weil on the map. Never gave RW a second look until now.

Generally, I’ve never been interested in skeleton watches or Raymond Weil for that matter, but this one is intriguing I gotta admit.

@MrSipi1986 3 жыл бұрын

Really glad that RW is getting some attention. Great brand and a true rarity in the world of huge conglomerates... Keep on the good job, Teddy!

I was waiting for you to say the one thing that makes the RW1212 so remarkable: It's that inverted escapement. Most open-heart watches, including Frederique Constant, always show you the underside of the escapement, which is much less appealing. Such open hearts are obscured by the metal plate. But by inverting the escapement, Raymond Weil have turned it into a feature attraction. You can really see the escapement going.

Finally a major watch KZfaqr covering RW! I love this brand! I have 2 freelancer open hearts with the RW1212 in house designed movement! One silver dial on metal band and one black dial on leather band both with the rose gold accents and they are gorgeous and though the same model, wear quite differently. You said the movement is proprietary but I thought I remembered that RW designed the movement in house, and Sellita just produces it for them? Anyway, I love how this watch actually displays the balance wheel properly and fully exposed rather than the cheaper open hearts where 3rd party movements often have large portions of the balance wheel covered or buried deeper so you can’t really see it. Thanks for the video and the great cinematography! If you ever want to review one of the non skeleton open heart models, let me know! I’ll send you one of mine for review if you’d be willing to send it back! I want this brand to get a little more recognition and that might help lol

I have 2 freelancers and love them both. They are both open heart one silver dial with rose gold accents and metal strap and one black dial with rose gold accents and leather strap. I love the exposed balance wheel on their design because it actually shows the entire balance wheel rather than covering it up partially like a lot of cheaper watches do with 3rd party movements. You’ll love yours once you get it!

Being an engineer I’m pretty fascinated by skeleton watches. Are there any classic skeleton watches that hold their value as well? Because I don’t wear them often so the utility value isn’t that high for me. But I’m willing to spend about 10 grand on one in case it holds it’s value.

@joshfuller6567 Жыл бұрын

I have had the watch he reviewed for a little over a year now and everyone loves it. I cannot tell you how many conversations I have had about the skeleton dial, and how it works. The only "Stigma" would be from watch enthusiasts that are only into dress watches, but that would be their personal preference anyways If you love watches and love the way they work, you should go for the skeleton. I have not once had a negative conversation about mine
