Harry Winston Ocean Sport Collection

Harry Winston launches a new Ocean Sport Collection, which is all about innovation and contemporary design.

The items of this collection are crafted in Zalium® alloy, hypo-allergenic and corrosive resistant material borrowed from aeronautical engineering. Zalium is actually an alloy made of aluminium and zirconium, and a trademark of Harry Windston brand. This zirconium-based alloy was for the first time used in the Project Z series of watches, and it is now reclaimed one more time to create these highly durable sporty pieces with unique lustrous gunmetal finish.

First look on these brand new models reveals distinctive features of Harry Winston brand. However, what really attracts the attention is a robust ratcheted bezel, which confirms the sporty essence of the collection. The dial, the case and the bezel are intersected by and distinctive relief which creates almost deep three-dimensional looks. Each of the models is graced with blue accents and bright layers of Super-LumiNova on hands and time-markers.
