Renaud Tixier Unveils a Skeletonised Monday Watch
Renaud Tixier’s Monday Skeleton reimagines the brand’s 2024 micro-rotor watch by removing the dial and skeletonising the remaining movement plate. Founded in 2023 by experienced watchmaker Dominique Renaud and Julien Tixier, the brand developed an auxiliary winding system that uses a platinum inertia flywheel and a “dancer” propulsion spring to capture small wrist movements and transfer their energy to the mainspring. The open architecture reveals intricate in-house finishing, including 238 interior angles and carefully bevelled bridges. Additional details include a hand-engraved caseband and a colour-matched enamel ratchet wheel cover. The 40.8 mm white-gold watch has a 72-hour power reserve, displays hours, minutes and small seconds, and is limited to 30 pieces: 15 each in blue and green.
