Weekend Skeleton A1306/1 Watch

The Watch

Founded in 1777 by Abraham-Louis Perrelet, the Perrelet brand is a pioneer of Swiss watchmaking. Renowned for creations that blend artisanal expertise with cutting-edge technology, it continues to produce timepieces that are as complex and elegant as they are high-performing. Every model is exceptional, embodying a subtle marriage of aesthetics, functionality, and Swiss horological heritage. The brand pushes the boundaries of watchmaking through watches where the art of movement meets sophisticated complications, all within an avant-garde design language. Today, the Swiss brand presents the Weekend Skeleton A1306/1 Watch. Clean-lined and beautifully crafted, this model is ready for any occasion. It features a round case measuring 39.50 mm in diameter and 9.60 mm in thickness, fashioned in brushed and polished stainless steel with a matte black PVD coating for an even more distinguished look. Eye-catching, it displays a crown at 3 o'clock bearing the brand's logo in relief, enabling precise adjustment of the central hands, while its grooved profile ensures a confident grip. A sapphire crystal tops the dial to shield it from potential shocks and is treated with an anti-reflective coating for flawless readability at all times. Finally, this timepiece features an engraved case back secured by screws, ensuring water resistance of 5 ATM. A mineral crystal allows you to admire the movement's intricate mechanics.

The Dial

With its captivating design, this dial gives the watch a commanding presence. It reveals a skeleton finish that lets you admire every detail of the movement's mechanics up close. It features a black base with an anthracite NAC coating and a micro-blasted finish for added sophistication. Around the bezel, a minute track runs alongside black floating baton-style indexes marking the hours, doubled at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock, swept by three hands along with the minute track. The slender blue seconds hand counts the elapsed seconds, the large hand marks the minutes, and the short hand the hours. The latter two, in gray, are rhodium-plated and filled with white Super-LumiNova®, a luminescent treatment ensuring optimal readability in low light. Below, the Swiss Made label appears alongside the movement type, while the brand name is displayed as a signature near 12 o'clock.

The Movement

This watch is powered by an in-house automatic movement, the Perrelet P-351-SQ. With a casing diameter of 25.60 mm and a height of 3.60 mm, it boasts a remarkably slender profile. Beating at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz), it delivers exceptional precision and fluid performance, while its skeletonized plates and bridges are finished with an anthracite NAC coating that showcases the micro-blasted finish. This caliber ensures accuracy across all functions and is equipped with 25 jewels to minimize friction and guarantee outstanding reliability. Its openworked, brushed, and rhodium-plated rotor bears the Perrelet logo. This robust mechanism promises a power reserve of approximately 42 hours.

The Strap

This strap will grace your wrist with effortless elegance on any occasion. Crafted in calfskin leather, it delivers outstanding suppleness and durability for a truly comfortable wear. It features gray contrast stitching and a rich black tone, elevated by an alligator-embossed pattern that adds a captivating depth and conforms naturally to your wrist. The pin buckle in black PVD stainless steel keeps it securely in place.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. As stunning as it is, this watch is no pushover when it comes to the elements. You can keep it on in the shower - though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it on the edge of the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity over time. As for swimming and scuba diving, we strongly advise against wearing this watch in the water, as damage could lead to costly repairs.
