Exhibition Caseback or Open Dial
A view of the mechanics comes in two variants: A sapphire crystal exhibition caseback shows the movement from the back, while an open or skeletonised dial brings the gear train and balance wheel to the front. With an exhibition caseback, the classic front view is preserved, whereas a skeleton dial makes the technology the defining design element.
What Connoisseurs Look for in a Movement
Visible movements are decorated more elaborately than concealed ones. Côtes de Genève, perlage on the plates, blued screws, anglage on the edges and engraved balance cocks show how much handcraft goes into a calibre. The rotor is often refined as well, sometimes made of gold or skeletonised so that it does not obscure the view of the movement beneath.
