True 'skeletonization' also includes the trimming away of any non-essential metal on the bridge, plate, wheel train or any other mechanical part of the watch, leaving only a minimalist 'bare' skeleton of the movement required for functionality.

My old (2005?) Swatch skin was similar but it had no ring to contrast the hands. It’s kind of a cheat watch since it ticks once every 15 seconds, and doesn’t carry a second hand. But I did enjoy it until the face got severely scratched. Don’t reach behind stuff with your watch hand.
