With this, Grossmann Uhren GmbH officially announces it will not be taking part in Baselworld 2019.

The company sees great potential in the new concept in terms of intensifying direct communication with its customers on site and in a targeted manner. Grossmann Uhren plans to expand the road show in the coming years to other cities.

Christine Hutter, founder and CEO of Grossmann Uhren GmbH, emphasises: ‘As a manufacturer of high-quality watches in a niche market, we increasingly see it as enriching to enter into more direct contact with retailers and also end customers. This is best achieved through personal relationships in their locations. This is why we are shifting our sales activities towards our customers and integrating our local partners more into communication. Our aim is to intensify individual, direct exchange on all levels’.

Invitations for the press conference in Dubai will be sent out shortly. The exact dates for the press events in Hong Kong and London will be announced by Grossmann Uhren in due course

On 11 November 2008, Christine Hutter founded Grossmann Uhren using the great name of the co-founder of the Glashütte watch industry and initiator of the German watchmaking school in Glashütte, Moritz Grossmann. Thus the legacy of the highly respected watch pioneer was revived after around 130 years. Today, the Moritz Grossmann brand manufactures mechanical timepieces to the highest standard of craftsmanship under the tagline “Schönstes deutsches Handwerk” – the most beautiful German craftsmanship - in a classic and at the same time modern design.

Inspired by the beauty and mysticism of the Orient, a watch with a magical aura has been created that unites the art of watchmaking with the art of jewellery to the highest level of perfection. The dial takes the observer into a mysterious nocturnal landscape of sand dunes with a moon shining above them. It is assembled elaborately by hand using the finest and precisely cut mother-of-pearl plates. Due to the varying colours of the mother-of-pearl, each image is a small unique specimen. 62 white brilliant-cut diamonds and a radiant, asymmetrical guilloche lend the dreamlike motif a sparkling frame.


Golden Milanaise jewelled bracelet

The TEFNUT 1001 Nights is now available with an innovation — an elaborate Milanaise bracelet: it is made in white or rose gold to match the case and lends the watch its perfect elegance.

Thanks to the ultra-fine workmanship, it gently nestles on the wrist and feels cool and airy on the skin even on hot days. The folding clasp can be variably adjusted and easily released.


Dial and hands

The black Roman numerals and the unmistakable lance-shaped Grossmann hands stand out harmoniously against the delicate line structure of the dial. The white or rose gold case gently widens from the crown to the 9 o’clock side. The bezel is set with 60 white diamonds. Two freely suspended lugs fixed to one side of the case easily pick up on the exciting asymmetry of the design. Like the crown, the lugs are graced with blue cabochons.

Calibre 102.0

The TEFNUT 1001 Nights features the characteristic movement elements of the calibre 102.0: cantilevered balance cock with the Grossmann micrometer screw, raised gold chatons, a separately removable winder module, and the mass-optimised Grossmann balance.

Harry Winston – AVENUE Classic Sweet Valentine 2019 Edition

















Harry WinstonAVENUE™ Classic Sweet Valentine Quartz White Gold Brilliant-cut Edition - 2019

Relive the romance of Valentine’s Day every minute of the day with this heartfelt tribute to love. Beating with three-dimensional hearts in passionate red mother-of-pearl, the graceful white gold case of this Avenue Classic timepiece is adorned with diamonds and a touch of luscious red rubies.


Love is in the Air

Harry Winston delivers a bold and unequivocal message of love with the Avenue Classic Sweet Valentine timepiece.

Once again, mother-of-pearl plays a leading role in the composition, marrying Harry Winston’s ongoing love affair with this precious natural element with the exploration of new creative avenues.

Ranging in size, the red mother-of-pearl hearts get progressively larger as they float towards the top of the dial. Utilizing cutting-edge technology, the dynamic three-dimensional hearts seamlessly push up from the background, and unlike flat mother-of-pearl inlays, the hearts get plumper as they get bigger, allowing their raised contours to be visible in profile.

A classy Art Deco case

New York’s Fifth Avenue has long played a pivotal role in Harry Winston’s story. Renowned as the world’s most prestigious shopping destination and admired for its soaring skyscrapers, Fifth Avenue is also home to Harry Winston’s Flagship Salon.

When Harry Winston founded his jewelry empire in 1932, the Art Deco movement was in full swing. Inspired by the streamlined styling of this period, the Avenue Classic boasts a stylish rectangular 18-karat white gold case that is gently cambered to ensure a perfect fit on the wrist.

The classic arches, positioned at either end of the case, are diminutive recreations of the famous arched doorway of Harry Winston’s Fifth Avenue Salon, and an iconic feature of the Avenue Collection. A total of 48 radiant white brilliant-cut diamonds sparkle on the bezel, lugs and even the sides of the case paying homage to the diamond expertise of the House.

One of the extraordinary features of this timepiece is the incorporation of a mesmerizing heart-shaped ruby in the top arch and a truncated ruby in the crown, in place of the traditional diamond.

Even the emerald-shape white gold logo at 12 o’clock succumbs to the romantic spirit of the timepiece and features a bright red lacquered background.


Wear your heart on your sleeve

The Avenue Classic Sweet Valentine is fitted with a high-end Swiss quartz movement, ideal for everyday wear and the white gold case back is engraved with its limited-edition number. Matching the dynamic red hearts on the dial, the seamless red alligator strap comes with an 18-karat white gold ardillon buckle set with six brilliant-cut diamonds.

Limited to just 14 pieces, the Avenue Classic Sweet Valentine is presented in a beautiful white box decorated with precious red hearts recalling the dial of this stunning timepiece.
