From the iconic shape of the emerald-cut diamond to the creative energy of authentic New York, the Harry Winston Emerald collection is enriched with two new Graffiti timepieces, where fine watchmaking, jewelry, and contemporary design meet in a refined expression of style. The new pieces are available at the Tourbillon boutique in Lugano, Via Nassa 3.

From the iconic shape of the emerald-cut diamond to the creative energy of authentic New York, the Harry Winston Emerald Collection There are Houses that tell the story of time through mechanical precision, and others that interpret it as an aesthetic experience. Harry Winston undoubtedly belongs to the latter category. For nearly a century, the name of the celebrated American jeweler has been synonymous with extraordinary stones, absolute elegance, and creations destined to transcend fashion, combining the excellence of fine jewelry with a timelessly contemporary vision of luxury.

From this legacy comes the Emerald collection, launched in 2016 and now considered one of the Maison's great contemporary classics in women's watchmaking. Its distinctive element is the refined octagonal case, inspired by the geometry of the emerald-cut diamond, an elegant silhouette that combines architectural balance and delicacy, becoming immediately recognizable at first glance.

Over time, the collection has evolved while maintaining its character intact. The 18-millimeter model, a true icon of the line, expresses Harry Winston's jewelry tradition through its diamond-set case and refined, minimalist dial. The 33-millimeter version offers more generous proportions and a more architectural feel, enhanced by faceted surfaces that amplify the case's dynamism. White gold, rose gold, and, for the smaller model, even yellow gold, interact with satin-finished dials, mother-of-pearl, and details that enhance each timepiece without ever being over the top.

The real novelty of this season is the arrival of two new Emerald Graffiti models, which introduce a surprisingly fresh and creative language to the collection.

The inspiration comes from the New York Collection, a line that pays homage to the city where Harry Winston built his legend. It is this spirit that the Graffiti collection translates into fine jewelry and watches. The initials HW, reinterpreted with a free and contemporary graphic style, become the common thread of a bold yet surprisingly elegant aesthetic, in which the urban language is ennobled by the Maison's masterful craftsmanship.

The first of the two new models interprets this philosophy with refined discretion. On a navy blue lacquered mother-of-pearl dial, the HW initials emerge in a luminous blue hue, accompanied by four brilliant-cut aquamarines that lend depth and lightness to the composition. Completing the timepiece is a sophisticated navy blue double-tour leather strap, which embraces the wrist with effortless elegance.

The second version instead takes a bolder and more playful approach. The white mother-of-pearl dial features pink and yellow HW lettering, framed by blue and pink graphic elements that recall the shape of an emerald-cut diamond. Three brilliant-cut diamonds mark the main hours, while the double-tour strap in pink patent leather accentuates the vibrant character of a watch designed for those who consider luxury also a form of personal expression.

The Emerald Graffiti collection draws inspiration from the Harry Winston high jewellery collection of the same name, in which diamonds and coloured gemstones give life to pendants, earrings, bracelets and brooches embellished with the unmistakable “HW” logo, the Maison’s distinctive signature.
