The Japan-based timepiece brand, ZEROOTIME, designs affordable skeleton tourbillon timepieces to increase accessibility to luxury watches. The brand's latest series, titled the Archer, features two head-turning styles. Sold at their trust cost, both watches boast an elegantly bare skeleton design to display the artistry underneath the dial.
The watches portray the tourbillons at the nine o'clock position rather than the more commonly showcased six o'clock position. Double springs are located at one o'clock and five o'clock positions to give the watch a power reserve of 72 hours. The T1 Alpha watch of the series boasts a circular body, while the T2 Square timepiece of the series sports a square body. In addition, the Archer series features a transparent rim around the watches to amplify their skeletal shape.
