Skeletonized Movement: The Unitas 6498 movement within the Potomac timepiece was skeletonized, which involves removing excess material from the movement components to create a more open and transparent appearance. This intricate process highlights the inner workings of the movement and adds an element of complexity to the watch.
Engraving and Decoration: Each component of the movement was meticulously engraved to strike a balance between translucency (the see-through nature of the skeletonized movement) and decoration. This attention to detail suggests a focus on creating a visually appealing and artistic aspect to the timepiece.
Carved "TWC" Calligraphy: The front dial features a carved "TWC" calligraphy, which not only serves as a branding element but also adds a unique and personalized touch to the watch.
Exhibition Case-Back: The sapphire crystal exhibition case-back provides a view of the movement's inner workings. The contrast between the blued-steel screws, rhodium-plated bridges, and vibrant rubies against the backdrop of the movement showcases both aesthetics and craftsmanship.
Sterling Silver Dial Rings: Solid sterling silver dial rings, which have been heat-treated and engine-turned, contribute to the visual appeal and quality of the timepiece. The combination of precious materials and intricate techniques adds to the overall luxury and sophistication.
Skeletonized Cathedral-Style Hands: The use of skeletonized cathedral-style hands adds to the overall design cohesiveness and enhances the watch's visual intricacy.
Hand-Guilloche Movement Plate: The glossy hand-guilloche movement plate serves as the central dial, creating a dramatic contrast against other elements. This central dial becomes a focal point that draws attention and adds a level of depth to the watch's design.
