Harry Winston @ Avenue Classic Diamond Drops & Midnight Moon Phase Diamond Drops 39 mm


Harry Winston introduces an enchanting new dial design that celebrates the brilliance and sparkle of the world’s finest diamonds. Like a pointillist painter, the gem-setter creates an intricate composition using only brilliant-cut stones, replacing colors with the sparkle of icy white gems. This enchanting canvas demonstrates the Harry Winston’s expertise in gem-setting and references the signature techniques used in the House’s fine jewelry creations: the near-invisible claw-setting on the chatons ensures that nothing distracts from the beauty of each diamond; diamonds are placed on the dial using a snow-setting, demonstrating the gem-setter’s skill and precision. Set with 29 brilliant-cut diamonds, the white gold case of the <Avenue Classic Diamond Drops> creates the ideal frame to showcase the intricate composition of the dial, like a window gazing out towards the sky. The textured base of the dial is shown in sophisticated shades of grays – the smoky hues creating the perfect contrast to showcase the brilliant sparkle of each individual stone. A snow-setting featuring 190 brilliant-cut gems gently cascades down the dial, awakening the composition with a sense of movement and emotion.


<Midnight Moon Phase Diamond Drops 39 mm> captures the romance and promise of the evening sky through an enchanting dial design, rich in detail. A crescent-shape moon phase display peers beneath the midnight blue sunray dial – the radiance of its lustrous full-moon and glistening stars enhanced by a cascade of snow-set diamonds extending across the dial. Details including a date-display at 6 o’clock, an emerald-cut applique at 12 o’clock over, and a diamond-set bezel and lugs contribute to the overall balance and harmony of the design. Featuring 305 diamonds totaling 1.55 carats, this exquisite model is a true testament to House’s expertise in the art of gem-setting.
