Maurice Lacroix Aikon Automatic Skeleton 39mm & 42mm
Swiss watch brand Maurice Lacroix has released three new versions of the AIKON Automatic Skeleton, capitalising on the popularity of the monochromatic 39mm reference first released in 2022.
Back in 2022, the Swiss brand released a watch featuring an open-worked movement positioned beneath a clear sapphire dial. Equipped with the exclusive Automatic ML115 calibre, made in collaboration with movement specialist Sellita, the model delivers a high quotient of transparency.
Indeed, the open-worked structure allows light to weave its way through various openings, illuminating numerous movement components that are usually hidden from view. Housed in a 39 mm stainless steel case, featuring brushed and polished surfaces, the model has proved hugely popular.
The Swiss brand has responded to customer feedback once again, releasing three additional versions of the AIKON Automatic Skeleton.
Executed in the same monochromatic grey theme as the 2022 release, the AIKON Automatic Skeleton is now available in a larger 42 mm case. It sates the desires of those customers who appreciate the aesthetics of the 39 mm model but yearn for larger dimensions.
Some retailers and customers said they appreciated the styling of the 2022 release but fancied a splash of colour.
Once again, the brand from the Franches-Montagnes has listened, releasing two additional references, 39 mm and 42 mm, that encompass shades of ‘Maurice Lacroix blue’.
