Harry Winston Premier Excenter Perpetual Calendar Platinum watch: limited to 20 units

Celebrating the 20th anniversary of its highly successful Premier Excenter Perpetual Calendar timepiece, the American Harry Winston Diamond Corporation, which is (comparatively) recently into Swiss watch manufacturing, has presented a very special edition model limited to only 20 units. Made of platinum, the watch’s 41mm case nests the same movement upgraded with new retrograde mechanisms operating the date and month complications.

Besides the perpetual calendar, date and month dials, the watch also features a moonphase indicator and a yellow-painted second time zone hand, which is set by the crown. The watch’s engine-turned anthracite or silvered dial with a moirĂ© or watered-silk effect provide for a contrast background, so, although a little bit busy with data, the watch is still quite legible and doesn’t require too much effort to read the date and time.
