Featuring a zalium case – a actual acclimated alone in watchmaking by Harry Winston – Project Z6 announces the accession of a new aggravation in the collection: a 24-hour anxiety on a hand-wound movement distinctively developed for this anxiety and absolute to Harry Winston. Adjusted by the crown, the striking-mechanism for the anxiety is activated by a activate at 4 o’clock. The hammer, which is anchored to the case, can be admired through an aperture on the dial, while the solid ellipsoidal gong produces optimal resonance. Thanks to its two barrels – one for the movement, the added for the striking-mechanism – Project Z6 has a 72-hour ability reserve. And analogous the complication of the 18-level movement, the askance punch reveals two overlapping disks that affectation the time and the alarm’s striking-mechanism. This alternation is bound to 300.
