Harry Winston

The world-famous watch company
Harry Winston has recently introduced its extraordinary
Project Z6 watch. The timepiece stands out due to its
case rendered in
zalium. This hypo-allergenic material that boasts great corrosion-resistance has been developed by
Ronald Winston, an experienced chemical engineer. Zalium is employed exclusively in the production of the brand’s watches.
A new complication in the collection, the
Project Z6 watch is endowed with a 24-hour alarm on a
unique manually-wound movement, engineered specially for this watch. The sophisticated movement is composed of 340 individual parts and studded with 45 jewels. Embellished with a Cotes-de-Geneve pattern, it incorporates hand-chamfered bridges. The novel Harry Winston watch provides a
72-hour power reserve, which is attainable thanks to two barrels.
For activating the striking-mechanism for the
alarm, the watch incorporates a trigger, located at 4 o’clock. The alarm is adjusted by the crown, protected by an original W-shaped crown-guard.
