Harry Winston Avenue

ABOUT COLLECTION

Harry Winston Avenue is a line of architecturally shaped jewellery watches from the New York house Harry Winston. The name refers to Fifth Avenue: the case, with its stepped profile and arches at 12 and 6 o'clock, echoes the façade of the brand's historic salon. The geometry of the metal and the stone setting follow the spirit of Art Deco.

The Avenue collection has three shapes. Avenue Classic has traditional rectangular proportions. The Avenue C is longer and narrower and has its own collection page. Avenue Squared has a larger square case. The choice is made by case shape, metal and movement. Cases are made of 18-carat gold — white, rose and yellow. Dials are mother-of-pearl, guilloché or fully paved with diamonds. Movements are quartz or self-winding mechanical.

Examples from the family include the Avenue C Lady Diamonds in white gold with a mother-of-pearl dial and the ladies' Avenue C Midsize Rose Gold Factory Diamonds in rose gold with a black dial. They use a quartz calibre with a second time zone display and sapphire crystal, and are set with round brilliant-cut diamonds.

The brand's other lines are Harry Winston Ocean, Premier, Midnight and Emerald.
