Live in Exclusives. A 3755PR, the flagship complicated Breguet of the early 2000s featuring a tourbillon, perpetual calendar, retrograde date, and complete skeletonization. Made in very small numbers, the retail price of the 3755PR was $275,000 USD in period. The openworking is expansive, with a well-resolved floral motif and sharp bevels. Each example is individually numbered on its guilloché dial. This was the utmost Breguet's watchmaking ability in the early 2000s, building on Roth's legacy through complication. hairspring.com/products/3755…

The Breguet 5395BR Extra-Plat Squelette rose gold version does something most openworked watches miss: the tourbillon isn't just visible through a dial, it IS the dial architecture. This is what separates true skeletonization from cutaway exhibitionism. The tourbillon at 6 o'clock anchors the composition. Clous de Paris guilloché frames the geometry. Running seconds on the tourbillon shaft means the complication serves legibility, not just spectacle. When you can see the watchmaker's thought process in the architecture itself—that's when openworking justifies the complexity. Would you take this over a traditional Breguet dial with grand feu enamel? @MontresBreguet #Breguet #Tourbillon #Horology

🌀 Skeletonized. Hypnotizing. Unapologetically Royal Oak. 🌀 The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked ref. 26735ST.OO.1320ST.02 is a masterclass in modern haute horlogerie that pairs the iconic Gérald Genta design with next-level openworking and a flying tourbillon that seems to defy gravity. Crafted entirely in stainless steel and powered by a razor-sharp architectural movement visible from every angle, this piece doesn’t just tell time - it exposes it. This is AP flexing its technical and aesthetic muscles like few brands can. 📸 Would you wear something this bold? Or is it a collector-only piece?

Live in Exclusives. A ref. 25668PT Perpetual Calendar Skeleton, the ultimate evolution of the original 5548, produced from 1988 until 1993 to celebrate the resurgence of complicated mechanical watchmaking to Switzerland. In platinum, just 79 examples of the 25668 were created. The 25668PT debuted the blue subdial platinum aesthetic, which has since become lore inside of Audemars Piguet, even referenced as recently as this year. But it is between the subdials where effort has been poured. First, the sword subdial hands are heat blued. The openworking encompasses hand engraving, bevelling, anglage, black polish, and an uncountable number of inner angles. The skeletonized moonphase is a particularly thoughtful touch. This particular example comes from the original family, having lived in a safe most of its life. It is a benchmark example. This watch led the charge for mechanical watchmaking’s return against the growing quartz shadow and sold to great success. It is easily one of the most critical, significant references of the last century. hairspring.com/collections/e…

It's really hard to stay motivated on a project when you are continually questioned and challenged (especially when you know you are in the right)... Any suggestions on keeping motivated? #IndependentConsultant #OpenWorking #FreelanceLife #MondayMotivation

When you remember how little you are going to be paid for a project 😬 I am posting about this as low #freelance fees need to be called out. Poor pay and poor treatment is NOT ok! Knowing what I know. I would NOT have said yes! #FreelanceLife #OpenWorking #WorkedHardToGetHere

Busy day #WorkingFromHome 🎧 listening to interviews to check accuracy of transcripts 🖥 preparing presentations for upcoming events 📝 writing blog and abstract It's amazing how much I got done! #PractitionerResearcher #SensoryEthnography #TakeAWalkInMyShoes #OpenWorking

I have said it before, and I'll say it again. If you email me and get an out of office saying I'm not working (or even if there's no automated reply), please don't send me a text to tell me you've sent me an email #PortfolioWorking #LifeWorkBalance #Boundries #OpenWorking

I don't understand resistance to collaboration or even opening up a conversation to explore together. I have experienced this across sectors, and I still don't get it! It's not a competition! Resistance stifles creativity and promotes bad practice. #OpenWorking #leadership

One of those topsy turvy weeks... Usually good at sticking to core working days, but some weeks it's not possible. Sometimes that means a mixed-up week where I'm switching gear from morning to afternoon, day to day! 🥴 #PortfolioCareer #OpenWorking #WorkLifeBalance

I am amazed how many funders and institutions are not committed to remunerating people for their participation in research and facilitation. Surely we should be collectively championing good practice... 🤔 #PractitionerResearcher #OpenWorking #leadership

When you dip into your emails from another role on a non-working day to find some information and immediately regret it! #Boundaries #ReminderToSelf #GoodPractice #OpenWorking #WorkingWell #PartTimeWorking #PortfolioCareer

By adding decorative details, craftsmen brought new life to openwork. It’s a patient task, openworking and decorating the ultra-thin Calibre 2003SQ took up to one week at the bench.

Not only did we reintroduce openworking watches, we elevated it with the
Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked,
a culmination of complications, miniaturisation, decoration and engraving.

The art of openworking. Ready to unveil the unseen?
