Harry Winston was founded in New York in 1932 by a jeweller who built his reputation acquiring and resetting significant gemstones, including the Hope Diamond, the Jonker Diamond and the Idol's Eye, before any serious competitor had understood that the provenance of a stone could be as commercially important as its weight. The transition to watchmaking followed the same logic: exceptional gem-setting applied to timepieces where the watch movement was never an afterthought. Winston established its Rare Timepieces division in Geneva in 1989, bringing complication development in-house and producing minute repeaters, tourbillons and retrograde mechanisms that gave the brand technical standing alongside its jewellery credentials. The Opus series, launched in 2001 in collaboration with independent watchmakers including Felix Baumgartner, Antoine Preziuso and MB&F's Max Büsser before his own brand existed, produced some of the most architecturally ambitious watches of the early twenty-first century.
