This title is not a reference to the expanse of water recently discovered on the moon but instead to a new family of stars shining in the Harry Winston galaxy. The Ocean Sport collection sets men’s high-tech watch aspirations into orbit, as well as those of women through a gemset self-winding chronograph and a slimmer quartz model). The four models are all cast from Zalium, a rare material that is harder than titanium, extremely corrosion-resistant, and  used in the watch industry exclusively by Harry Winston. Immediately identifiable thanks to the two claws extending from the bezel to frame the crown, the Ocean Sport chronograph displays a distinctive, high-tech personality accentuated by its openworked dial, while the Ocean Sport Automatic, featuring a monochrome dial available in silvery grey or slate grey versions, is also graphically appealing.
