Project Z6 Blue Edition

First presented in 2011, the Project Z6 was initially introduced with a non-treated Zalium case before subsequently appearing in gold and then with a DLC-coated Zalium case. ZaliumTM is an aerospace type zirconium alloy exclusive to Harry Winston in watchmaking. It is light, harder than titanium, non-allergenic and extremely anti-corrosion resistant. It was first introduced in the Project Z.




The caliber HW1010 is a mechanical, hand-wound movement composed of 338 parts, which in addition to displaying the hours, minutes, and seconds (via Harry Winston’s unique “Shuriken” revolving power indicator) is also an alarm watch.

The alarm consists of a minute repeater style hammer, which strikes a gong and produces a crisp sound. Designed to be seen, not only heard, the hammer is fixed to the ZaliumTM case to show the alarm ringing and enhance sound transmission, amplification and tone. It forms part of the Harry Winston composition of overlapping disks – one displaying the primary time, and the other showing the time for which the alarm is set, each with separate day and night indicators. Further emphasizing the practical functionality, the double barrels guarantee a full 72-hour power-reserve and ensure that the complication will not disrupt the movement timekeeping functions.


One of the most distinctive features of the Harry Winston Project Z6 Blue Edition is also the multi-level, vertical satin-brushed blue dial, which includes a smoked sapphire glass effect over the alarm hour indexes, a blue sand-blasted applique at the center of the day/night indicator at 2 o’clock, and Côtes de Genève applied to the alarm subdial.

The Project Z6 Blue Edition is offered in a 44 mm ZaliumTM case, the hardness and resistance to abrasive wear of this material being enhanced by a grey DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) finish.
