With Harry Winston International Warranty dated 19 June 2011, instruction manual, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.

Minute repeater complications are widely considered as the very pinnacle in the hierarchy of traditional complications.

With the present timepiece, Harry Winston re-imagined the classic beauty of such a complication by creating a watch that is unconventional and yet combines all the romance of a traditional repeater. The semi-skeletonised eccentric dial enables the user to view the time while admiring the chiming of the hammers to the gong when the minute repeater is activated.

This minute repeater combines the classical aesthetics of the legendary Harry Winston with a technically elaborate movement to form the perfect timepiece. The present watch is number 10 of a limited edition of 20 examples only.
