But is it any good? That’s the question we’re looking to answer today!

The other skeleton watch I’ve had serious wrist-time with is the Tissot Squelette (read the review if you’re wanting to see me gush for 1,500+ words). However, I’ve had plenty of wrist time with open hearts from a variety of brands- the Jazzmaster Open Heart, Bulova 97A121 and 96A101, and Stuhrling Acheron all come to mind. They offer a taste, but they aren’t true skeletons- that makes this Swatch the second I’ve had on my wrist (and behind my lens).

The MSRP on the Body and Soul is just north of $175, but astute Amazon shoppers will see it for around $150. For $150, you can get a lot of mechanical or automatic skeletons. So, is the Swatch better, and if so, why?

Let’s dig in.
