Thread: I found a Skeleton in the post this morning.

  1. #1

    I found a Skeleton in the post this morning.

    It definitely looks better in person. Re-sizing the bracelet was a pain, as it's pin and collar but , on the plus side, there's a half link so you can get it pretty close to perfect. here's a few photos.

    That's a great looking skeleton. They often suffer from legibility problems, but that looks like you can find the hands easily at a glance. Congrats on the new arrival.

    Excellent. My kind of skeleton—finishing isn’t over the top ornate, you’ve got legible hands and indices so you can actually tell the time. Plus the classic Rado case.

    Many thanks gents, I'm very happy with it, for all of the above reasons.

    As one that largely considers skeleton watches a no go, I would happily have this one on my wrist. Congratulations, it's a beauty.
