DeWitt Academia Skeleton Bi-Retrograde Watch Review

I've seen them do this many times over the years and the same is true for this DeWitt Academia Skeleton reference AC.SKE.001 watch that I am reviewing today So let's see what interesting talents and personality this new DeWitt Academia Skeleton watch has in store for mechanical aficionados This watch looks so different as a DeWitt, that unless you view the Academia-style case from the side, it would be easy to confuse the Academia Skeleton as a product coming from another brand.

With the low production numbers of DeWitt, I don't think they should have too much trouble selling 28 of these Academia Skeleton watches DeWitt themselves don't even list "Power reserve indication" as one of the functions of the Academia Skeleton, even though it is for me a big part of the value proposition DeWitt's in-house manually-wound caliber DW1105S powers the Academia Skeleton and it has 100 total hours of power reserve operating at 3Hz.

The "S" part of the movement's name likely designates it as a skeleton version I sort of take issue with the term because it has been used in the past to refer to two different retrograde counters as opposed to what DeWitt engineered into the DW1105S movement. . Source
