Raymond Weil Freelancer Calibre RW1212 Silver Skeleton Dial Stainless Steel Mens Watch 2785-ST-65001

In 1976, in the middle of a watch industry crisis, Mr Raymond Weil founded his eponymous watch company. His creations were immediately praised by watch enthusiasts - amateurs and connoisseurs alike. Now, 50 years after its creation RAYMOND WEIL is still a family-run business; under the leadership of Mr Weil's grandson the company continues to develop and consolidate its status among the leading names of the Swiss watch industry.

Launched in 2007, the freelancer collection was created in honour of the free-spirited man who wishes to remain in control of his own destiny, and features an eclectic mix of urbane mechanical watches. The new stylish skeleton Calibre RW1212 is proof of the ever-evolving achievements of the RAYMOND WEIL in-house movements. While working on the initial design of the Calibre RW1212, the R&D team at RAYMOND WEIL redesigned and pared down all the elements closely relating to the exquisite mechanism so as to endow this exclusive in-house movement with even more depth and character.

Framed by a 42mm steel case, the movement’s assembly and open-worked details are key to the final horological aesthetic of this timepiece. The distinctive characteristic remains the 6 o’clock front dial positioning of its visible balance wheel. The dial, however, has been opened, exposing the manufacturing beauty and highlighting the richness of watchmaking expertise, whilst infusing it with its distinctive free-spirited attitude.
