Harry Winston's newest Histoire de Tourbillon 8 is the eighth in a series of incredibly complex tourbillon timepieces that the brand regularly develops. This 51mm watch is offered this year in two colorways, anthracite and red, and the one we love most is the red version. The watch houses the mechanical manual-wind 4503 caliber consisting of a staggering 534 parts. The partially open-worked movement has two biaxial tourbillons rotating at di!erent times (45 seconds for the interior cages and 75 seconds for the exterior cages). Connected by a spherical differential, the tourbillons counteract the effects of gravity no matter what position the wrist is in. Equipped with two barrels and three springs, the watch offers 55 hours of power reserve. The case is crafted in 18K white gold. Just 10 pieces will be made of the red version.
