Harry Winston Ocean Lady Z Zalium Watch
Filed under: Timepieces / Watches
Harry Winston presents a new ladies watch model; the Ocean Lady Z, in a limited edition of 300 pieces. The case is made of Zalium, a metal stronger than titanium used in aerospace engines, surgical tools, and now watches. The Lady Z expands on the now iconic Harry Winston Ocean look with a radiant dial and unique movement. Powering it is an automatic GP 3106 with the HW 2837 module. The lower part of the face has two elliptical moon dials, one in black, and the other white. The double moon phase movement is mostly whimsical displaying two moons, but adds visual interest. The rhodium and black sapphire dial is celestial in design, with an upper section focusing on a profound sunburst display with the central logo and hands serving as the sun. Rays are machine carved into the face with perspective shaped Arabic numerals (also available with simple hour indexes) that are tastefully laid out above the darker, sky themed lower sections of the face. I can see one easily spending time admiring the face while neglecting to read the time.
Gems are aplenty on the Ocean Lady Z's 36mm wide case. Over 70 diamonds sit on the face, bezel, and lugs. Another 36 diamonds stud the clasp of the hand-sewn alligator strap that is beautifully integrated into the case design. Black sapphires and shaded diamonds make up the moon discs and accompanying comet trails. Harry Winston never abstains from using its signature shuriken small seconds disc, looking like a symbolic galaxy in the mix of celestial bodies on the Ocean Lady Z watch face.
