Avant-garde Exclusivity…

Harry Winston‘s back with another stunner (if Harry Winston’s your thing, that is).  Following in the footsteps of the Harry Winston Histoire de Tourbillon No. 1 (announced in early 2009), this avant-garde timekeeper and mesmerizer will be limited to just 20 pieces with a price approaching $1,000,000 (I’d guess).  It features a commanding 48.5mm white gold case which beautifully frames the bi-axial tourbillon (doubling as a 60-second hand) and is powered by a HW manual-wind mechanical movement.  There is also a 12-hour sub-dial (with day (‘jour’) and night (‘nuit’) markings) at the 2 o’clock position and the minutes are at the 6 o’clock position.  Of note there are 8 sapphire crystals on the watch — 5 on the front and 3 on the back (not pictured).
