The Patek Philippe Celestial is a very special timepiece. Introduced at the 2002 Basel Fair, the Celestial depicts the night sky as it appears over Geneva Switzerland. The astronomical display utilizes a system of rotating sapphire plates, which turn at different speeds and are layered, to reproduce the relationships of the various celestial bodies at various times. The watch also indicates moon phase. Patek Philippe reports calculating 25 trillion "ratio combinations" to arrive at the most accurate possible system for measuring the movement of the stars. I could go into the mechanics of the watch, but suffice to say that building a mechanism to animate such an amazing cosmological microcosm was a feat uniquely suited for Patek's master watchmakers.

Case is 18k white gold with dimensions of 43mm wide by 10mm thick. The case sides are embossed with the Calatrava Cross, to very nice effect. Sapphire crystals front and back. Crown at 2 o'clock sets the time and winds the watch. The crown at 4 o'clock is for setting the astronomical display.

Dial is blue and displays the aforementioned information. There is an elliptical window which is marked with the cardinal directions for orienting the celestial display to true north. There is a roman numeral elaborated minutes and hours chapter at the dial's edge. Skeletonized "Feuille" style hands.

Movement is the automatic winding Patek Philippe Caliber 240 LU CL with 45 jewels and 301 individual, hand-finished parts. Every tooth, on every gear wheel, was hand polished on a rotating hardwood disc. Patek requires several months to produce each Celestial caliber, and it's no wonder when one considers the innumerable steps and man hours required to produce such a machine. The caliber is stamped with the Geneva Seal, as would be expected. Also known as Patek Philippe Celestial 5102 , 5102G, Sky Moon

Harry Winston Z4 Watch

Harry Winston have unveiled their Z4 watch which is part of their Z Collection of complicated watches. The Z4 case is made of zalium (an alloy of zirconium used to make surgical tools and jet engines) whilst the display is made of sapphire crystal. The Z4 displays two time zones with a day night indicator for each as well as a innovative date indicator. Harry Winston will make only three hundred Z4’s and they will be available exclusively from Harry Winston stores.

By pressing the repeater-style trigger on the left side of the case, you can click from one time zone to the next.
The easy-to-read date, quick-set by the crown, is framed vertically in the interplay of discs for the minute display and hour.
Completing the indicators is the tiny rotating shuriken symbol — a multi-bladed throwing weapon, a feature of all Project Z watches — which shows that the movement is functioning normally.
The sophisticated time-zone module was constructed in-house by Harry Winston on a robust, self-winding calibre.
Blue on carbon black or white on anthracite grey balance clarity and discretion on four levels of the dial.
Zalium is the hard, light, zirconium alloy of which Z watches are crafted. Developed for use in jet engines, its hypo-allergenic properties and extreme resistance to corrosion make it ideally suited for watchcases.

The emblematic arches of Harry Winston’s Manhattan showroom discreetly protect the crown, and the Zalium gleams as if with hidden life.
