Its imposing 45 mm white gold case provides the framework for an unusually architectural dial, where the indications are deliberately separated into distinct displays. Two prominent sub-dials dominate the upper half of the watch, providing simultaneous readings for different time zones, complemented by day/night indication. Below them, the exposed tourbillon at 6 o’clock forms the mechanical focal point of the composition, its open construction contrasting with the darker tones of the dial. The substantial 18K white gold case incorporates the characteristic projecting elements surrounding the crown, a design signature inspired by the arches of Harry Winston’s historic Fifth Avenue salon. Despite its precious-metal construction and complex mechanics, the black rubber strap gives the watch a distinctly contemporary and sporting appearance. Bringing together a manually wound 34-jewel movement, tourbillon and sophisticated travel-time indications, the present Ocean Tourbillon World Time illustrates the ambitious approach to haute horlogerie that characterised Harry Winston’s complicated watches of the era.
