In 2004, Harry Winston developed the project Z series, a collection of limited edition timepieces featuring Zalium, an ultra-light alloy more<br />
commonly used in aerospace technology. previously unknown in haute horology, Zalium (zirconium and allium lily) is an extremely durable<br />
and lightweight material that is exclusive to Harry Winston timepieces. Bridging heritage and modernity, with a subtle blend of high-tech,<br />
sporty style, the project Z series continues to reflect Harry Winston’s commitment to developing highly innovative timepiece designs.<br />

The fifth watch in the series, Z5, is housed per tradition in the Zalium case, which measures 45 mm. But its functions take the series into new<br />
territory for Harry Winston. Key is a new double time zone, with the first time zone displayed off-center at the 2 o’clock position and the second<br />
time zone at nine o’clock on the dial. a jumping display, in french, contains names of 24 worldwide cities corresponding to each of the 24 time<br />
zones. They share the anthracite dial with an automatic tourbillon at the 6o’clock location. a choice of leather or rubber strap features an embossed,<br />
three-blade Shuriken—a concealable ninja throwing weapon—which is the emblem of project Z watches ($126,700).<br />
