"There is no doubt that in 100 years from now, the historians of watchmaking will consider the Harry Winston Opus series, as the most emblematic watch collection from the beginning of the 2000's.
No brand can pride itself on having brought together so many geniuses in watchmaking, in such a short period, within the same collection. If a brand like Patek used the services of some prestigious names for a long time, these watchmakers were never brought to the forefront and had to follow the strict orders of Patek.
The Harry Winston approach is completely different, because it is all about capturing the best of an era, by promoting young watchmaking talents, while giving them the freedom to explore their creativity. Thus, the Opus XII, one of the most awaited pieces of the last Baselworld, drew the attention on the brilliant Emmanuel Bouchet, unknown by the public until then."
