The Harry Winston Opus Series, initially introduced in 2001 and based on the successful collaboration with most gifted independent watchmakers, has been joined by a new innovative masterpiece – Opus 9.

In Opus 9, diamonds are not merely a decorative element, but the functional element of time telling. Teamed up for the 9th Opi is master watchmaker Jean-Marc Wiederecht and haute designer Eric Giroud.

Replacing the traditional watch hands and cyclical dial, time is displayed by two parallel diamond chains, for hours and minutes.

Sleek and scintillating, each chain is adorned with 33 baguette-cut diamonds, Harry Winston’s signature shape.

Each chain features a vivid mandarin garnet indicating the hours on the left side of the dial and the minutes on the right side.

The Opus 9 features a white gold case with the movement housed in two sapphire crystal tubes.

The stunning Harry Winston watch will be available in a limited edition of just 100 pieces. Source: watchismo
