Overview
A ruby-set skull with red gold detailing
The skull here is set with rubies across the cranium, the red stones reading against the black ceramic case and the openworked structure behind them. The crown is red gold and the strap black rubber.
The calibre RM052 is unchanged: the skull is the baseplate and bridges, the jaws hold the ruby of the tourbillon cage, and the back of the skull serves as the centre bridge.
