The Opus 1 represents the beginning of one of the greatest partnerships of modern watchmaking between the esteemed jeweller Harry Winston and the visionary and astute Maximilian Büsser.
The Opus series has gone on to become a cult line for serious collectors of modern independent watches. While later editions were iroduced in larger and larger numbers, when the series was launched in 2001 working with the legendary watchmaker François-Paul Journe, there were only 18 pieces in total: six with five-day automatic movement, six tourbillons and six with the innovative resonance escapement.
Of these six Chronomètre à Résonance based models each one was unique with different dial colours and some with stone setting. Incredibly, the piece offered here, number 4532, is the exact one shown in all of the press images produced for the launch of the collection and still adorning the Harry Winston website detailing the Opus series. With platinum case, highly attractive brushed dark grey dial and lighter subsidiary dials, it shows a level of discretion that only Mr Journe could lend to the Opus series. Offered in extremely well preserved condition and complete with original box and papers, this watch has all the ingredients to become a great future classic.
