Ahead of the Baselworld 2016 watch fair, the American jewelry and watchmaking house has announced the launch of a new precious ladies model that has everything that we might expect from the Harry Winston. This exquisite novelty is a part of the brand’s famous Premier Collection.
Harry Winston Premier Moon Phase 36mm is an amazing piece which brings together the beauty and delicacy of mother-of-pearl with the romantic moon phase complication.
As you can see at the image above, this newcomer boasts beautiful, three-dimensional look of the dial which has been achieved thanks to the use of various artistic techniques, such as carefully selected mother-of-pearl, the usage of contrasting colors, and professionally arranged design accents.
The final result is amazing. The moon phase is brilliantly displayed in the center of the dial. The exciting dynamic of the lunar cycle is shown by using the blue mother-of-pearl moon phase disc with an impressive gold moon that looks as if traveling across the horizon, just before it finds the way beneath the white mother-of-pearl design at the end of the lunar cycle.
A mother-of-pearl dial which is created with the effect of two shades nicely rounds moon phase complication. The first color that has been used for the dial is pure white, alluding to daylight, whilst the pearl blue color evokes the deep blue of the evening sky. I must say that the remaining details are equally impressive, such as gold cabochons minute markers and Harry Winston’s emerald-shaped logo at the 12 o’clock position.
The newest member of the Premier Collection is crafted from 18-karat pink gold and it measures 36mm in diameter. The elegant and feminine case is encrusted with 57 brilliant-cut diamonds, which, together with those gem settings on the dial and buckle, offer 2.58 carats of the most precious stones.
The beating heart of the watch is the precise and reliable caliber HW5201 quartz movement which provides the usual set of functions (hours, minutes), as well as a moon phase and a date function. A round black-on-white date window is situated at the 6 o’clock position. The watch case is shielded with sapphire crystals and constructed to resist water pressure up to 30 meters (about 100 feet).
Harry Winston Premier Moon Phase 36mm Watch is mounted on the white alligator leather strap, fitted with 18-karat rose gold ardillon buckle set with 17 diamonds.
