| Harry Winston Rare Timepieces x Frédéric Opus 8 |
Watches have always been my favorite accessory. I have about 20 watches of different brands. Each one stands out from the other, which is why I love them all. Here is another unique timepiece by Harry Winston that will defiantly be part of my collection (If I can get my hands on one).
The Harry Winston timepiece is inspired by early electronic LED watches of the 1970s (like the first Hamilton Pulsar), creator Frédéric Garinaud (of Renaud & Papi) and CSH developed the Opus 8 with a new twist on mechanical-digital watches. Pulling the side-lever down activates mechanical pixels to rise up from the digitally segmented dial displaying the hour of the day, am/pm, and indication of minutes by rising five minute markers located in a vertical scale next to the primary display.
All this is probably too technical for you but all it means that it's a one of a kind piece that you wont find no where else. A limited amount were made so I dont even think I will be able to even get my hands on one.

Wow! This is really a great wrist watch. I never seen such a mechanism of displaying time, this is a unique timepiece. I too saw some unique watches at Watch Zone but this one is the best.
