foverstaI have had for a very long time the wish to be able to wear each and every Opus! My quest is over because I could shoot this week the two missing Opus in my collection of wristshots, Opus 1 and Opus 4. To be more precise, I didn't see ALL the Opus because as you know, some have several versions. But I could wear at least one version of each what is already pretty good! Please find below this 12 Opus string: Opus 1 (François-Paul Journe): Opus 2 (Antoine Preziuso): Opus 3 (Vianney Halter): Opus 4 (Christophe ... ...">Story

foverstaThe Midnight Tourbillon GMT can be seen as the result of a great metamorphosis. Look carefully at the dial. The Tourbillon located at 6 o'clock, the main time display on the right, the second time zone on the left, the reference cities on top, does it remind you anything? If you think about the Z5 or Ocean Tourbillon GMT, congratulations! You won! This Midnight reinterprets the Tourbillon movement with second timezone display from Dimier in an environment that I find more favourable. Actually, the Midnight .....">Story

foverstaHarry Winston is not a brand with very high production figures: only several thousands of watches are produced per year. However, 2012 was a very busy year with a lot of novelties for my deepest pleasure! I propose you a wrap-up of the main events of the year to show you that the Harry Winston world didn't stop during the past year! As usual during the SIHH week, I discovered the new Histoire de Tourbillon. For me, it was almost a shock! What a bulky watch! And what a strange shape! However, there was a special ... ...">Story

foverstaLike in 2011, Harry Winston was one of the main exhibitors at the Salon Belles Montres which took place last week in Paris. I wasn't very lost when I wished to join the booth since its location was exactly the same than last year. But of course, the contents of the case display were a bit different with highlights on some of the 2012 timepieces. As usual, we start by setting the scene: The star of the exhibition was obviously Opus 12: it created the same impact than in London thanks to the magic of the hands .....">Story

Of course, Harry Winston is one of these big exhibitors and as we could expected it, the gathering of jewels inside the booth is truly impressive. When I visited it, I had the feeling to watch fireworks .....">Story

foverstaAs I told you previously, I had the chance to see during the 2012 Basel Fair the novelties which would be released during the second half of the year. Time is coming to present them to you, one by one. I propose you to start with one novelty which seduced me a lot: the Ocean Tourbillon Big Date .
