This new timepiece shows the time in two different time zones: home time and local time, wherever a traveler may be.
The Harry Winston Ocean Dual Time Monochrome interprets one of the greatest mysteries in science is the so-called "arrow of time" –that is, why we sense time as flowing irresistibly into the future, but never into the past. And yet, perplexingly, the laws of physics are symmetrical with respect to time –that is, you can run them backwards in time as well as forwards; nothing forbids it.
Each dial has its own day/night indicator (in virtually all dual time zone watches this is either absent, or present for only home time). The large date display is also unusual in presenting the date, in two digits, in a vertical rather than the ordinary horizontal orientation.
The dial is coated with a special layer of oxidized platinum which is then hand-brushed to create a patina that shows not only the effect of time's arrow –the inevitable movement of the future into the past –but also shows the ability of the human hand to express it. Each dial is thus unique.
The case is made of Harry Winston's unique, proprietary alloy, ZaliumTM, composed of aluminum and zirconium. ZaliumTM is light, yet highly resistant to corrosion.
