Why the CIGA Design Series Z Edge Is One of the Boldest Skeleton Watches in Our Collection
Recently, we’ve had a significant amount of inquiries and questions surrounding introductory, skeleton watches. At PR Timepieces, we’re always on the hunt for watches that push boundaries—and the CIGA Design Series Z Edge does just that. This skeleton mechanical piece stands out for its daring architecture, award-winning design, and exceptional value, making it one of the most compelling additions to our collection.
skeleton Design Done Right
As someone who lives and breathes horology, I’ve always found skeleton watches fascinating. When done poorly, they can feel gimmicky—like someone just cut away at a dial for show. But when done right, the movement becomes part of the art. The watch tells time and a story.
That’s what makes the Series Z Edge special.
CIGA Design doesn’t just expose the movement—they engineer the entire case and layout around showcasing it. The mechanical interaction is front and center, yet the design still feels intentional and refined. It invites the wearer to slow down, observe, and appreciate the mechanics that make time tick.
Not to mention, if you are someone who is drawn to a Richard Millie skeleton, but might not have that high budget, the CIGA Design Series Z Edge is an excellent alternative.
Designed to Stand Out
The Z Edge’s angular titanium case and transparent architecture give it a high-impact visual identity, while the automatic movement delivers 40 hours of power reserve and smooth performance. You get sapphire crystal protection on both the front and back, and the open dial doesn’t compromise readability—a common shortfall in lesser skeleton designs.
CIGA’s approach is bold, but it's not just about aesthetics. It's about respecting watchmaking as both science and sculpture.
Why We’re Stocking It
We don’t add watches to our lineup just because they’re trendy—we add them because they mean something. With the Z Edge, you’re not just wearing a cool watch. You’re wearing a piece of design philosophy that’s incredibly hard to get your hands on.
Another reason why we decided to source this piece was the increased interest in CIGA design as a company for winning GPHG Challenge Watch Prize & 16 International Awards.
In a market where skeleton watches often come with four- or five-figure price tags, this piece proves you don’t have to break the bank to get something visually striking, mechanically sound, and emotionally compelling.
