While skeleton dials are not uncommon in watchmaking, the landscape changes significantly when it comes to diamond watches. The number of skeleton models that truly showcase intricate craftsmanship becomes even more limited.

This year, Arnold & Son unveils the "Nebula Diamond," an addition to the "Nebula" lineup introduced in 2016.

Nebula, derived from Latin, signifies "cloud" and in astronomy, "stellar nebula." The watch is named for its seven bridges, arranged from the dial's edge towards the center, which evoke the appearance of a nebula formed after a star's explosion.

For the "Nebula Diamond," these bridges are crafted from 18K red gold to enhance their presence. A brushed finish on the bridge surfaces, contrasted with polished edges, imparts a subtle yet captivating radiance.

The contrast with the 18K red gold case and the 90 diamonds (0.52 ct.) adorning the bezel is exquisite, with each component exuding a beauty that rivals the gemstones themselves.

The movement itself is finished to a level worthy of admiration.
