Harry Potter Collector Set
Kross Studio presents its most magical Collector Set to date, dedicated to the enchanting universe of the Harry Potter series. A limited edition of 10 pieces composed of a central floating tourbillon watch capturing the intensity of a Quidditch match and a music box that plays Hedwig’s Theme.
At the Heart of a Quidditch Match
At the Heart of a Quidditch Match The Harry Potter Central Floating Tourbillon watch brings a Quidditch match to life, the legendary sport of the wizarding school, where a seeker from each house competes to catch the Golden Snitch.
The four characters, subtly attached to the tourbillon, complete a full rotation above the watch movement every minute. Seemingly floating mid-air, Harry Potter for Gryffindor, Cho Chang for Ravenclaw, Cedric Diggory for Hufflepuff, and Draco Malfoy for Slytherin engage in a fierce battle, flying on their brooms in pursuit of the Snitch.
A Miniature Masterpiece in Motion
Each character, measuring 2.79mm in height and 6.09mm in length, is crafted in 18-karat gold, meticulously engraved and hand-painted.
This craftsmanship reveals the finest details of their faces and Quidditch uniforms, down to the broomstick. This dynamic scene, integrated into the central floating tourbillon, can be admired from every angle under a sapphire crystal dome, revealing an astonishing richness of detail.
An Enchanting Timepiece with Timeless Lines
The watch case’s timeless yet resolutely modern aesthetic perfectly aligns with the bold spirit and understated elegance of Harry Potter. Like something straight out of a spellbook, its ingenious winding system, centered on the back of the 42mm case, seems like the result of a magical formula, capable of captivating even the most erudite wizard.
A patented technical innovation
At the heart of this exclusive timepiece lies the KS 7’006 central floating tourbillon movement, a hand-wound marvel composed of 229 meticulously designed, decorated, and assembled components by the artisans of Kross Studio’s manufacture. The watch’s primary functions—winding, energy storage, regulation, and display—are all cleverly arranged at the center.
This unique design allows the barrel to occupy nearly the entire movement surface, providing an impressive 120-hour power reserve while maintaining exceptional chronometric performance. The tourbillon, its balance wheel, and fixed seconds wheel are elevated above the movement and hands, floating over the barrel.
Peripheral time display
Another breakthrough of the KS 7’006 movement is its peripheral hour display mechanism, achieved through a planetary gear system mounted on two ball bearings, ensuring an unobstructed view of the tourbillon. The Harry Potter Central Floating Tourbillon hands are gold-plated and filled with black Superluminova®.
Craftsmanship in the Spotlight
The Harry Potter Central Tourbillon components are decorated in line with traditional watchmaking standards. The barrel bridge is a testament to this craftsmanship, featuring hand-beveled angles, stretched edges, perlage on recesses, and Geneva stripes adorning its top surface. This exceptional level of finishing, executed entirely in-house, is made possible by Kross Studio’s dedicated decoration department.
A Dial Open to the Movement
The Harry Potter Central Floating Tourbillon dial consists of two distinct parts. The flange, crafted in 18K gold, features an opaline sandblasted finish, revealing a golden minute track. The second section of the dial, also in 18K gold, is grained in black with gold Roman numerals, a tribute to the Hogwarts clock tower.
A crown integrated into the case back
Winding the watch and setting the time are effortlessly achieved using a finger to rotate the flat "D-ring crown" on the case back and the "Time Set" push button, strategically positioned at 3 o'clock along the watch's edge. This system not only maintains design symmetry and enhances comfort compared to a traditional crown, but it also facilitates quicker winding, adding a practical touch to the overall experience.
