Each project offers something different and the ninth is no exception. The Harry Winston Project Z watches do not have this name purely for marketing reasons. In each case, the objective is to present a new type of cool sports watch. Project Z9 is totally different from its predecessors but still abides by the same principles. First of all, and this is where the models get their name from, a Z must have a case in Zalium. This alloy is unique to Harry Winston and consists of aluminium and zirconium. The former is light but tender, the latter is rare and hard. Together, they make large cases (44.2mm for the Z9) lightweight. But they also offer resistance to shocks and abrasion that is perfect for watches to be worn in any conditions, as well as a dull grey colour that is distinct from steel, white gold or titanium.

The second unavoidable characteristic is that a Project Z should possess certain aesthetic attributes. The crown is engraved with the three arches that symbolise the main entrance of the brand's store on Fifth Avenue. It must also have an operating indicator - a kind of small seconds whose hand is nicknamed shuriken, after the famous ninja throwing star. The brand's logo must be found in an emerald-shaped inset at 12 o'clock. The strap is invariably made of rubber, because of the watch's sporty nature. The bezel is smooth, brushed and angled. The lugs are pronounced, extending the lines of the case, which makes them very comfortable. They are highlighted by a polished edge across their brushed surface.

The third principle is that a Project Z must be a watch with a middle-level complication. After an alarm, a second time zone and various retrograde functions, the Project Z9 comes with one of the great classics of mechanical watchmaking: a chronograph. But not just any old chronograph: provided by Blancpain, a sister company within the Swatch Group, it is a brand-new self-winding calibre with two special features. It is a flyback chronograph, which means that there is no need to stop it before resetting it. One push on the button at 4 o'clock is enough to restart the chronograph. But it is the frequency that sets this movement apart. It beats at 36,000 vibrations per hour, a speed that only a handful of movements - and even fewer chronographs - can achieve. In order to ensure this high-frequency oscillation over time, the watchmakers naturally chose a silicon balance spring.

Beyond these common traits, no Project Z resembles any of the others. The strength of the principle behind this collection is to leave room for manoeuvre. The design of the Z9 is therefore completely new. It uses a grille effect with the back of the movement and the date ring with its skeletonised numerals visible at the bottom, with the current date clearly visible against at white background in an aperture at 6 o'clock. On the second level, a black grille acts as a bearing structure for the upper levels of the skeleton dial. In a single piece, this includes the hour markers and the chronograph counters, whose centre of gravity appears to have moved towards the outer edge of the dial because they are not round. These two half medallions display the elapsed time in two halves and two different colours, the colour of the scale matching the rhodium-grey or electric blue of the hand. So the elapsed time is read by colour. The final principle: a Project Z is always a limited edition. Only 300 Z9 models will therefore be produced.

Cupid has once again ignited the creative passion of Blancpain, which is presenting an exceptional model to celebrate the feast of lovers. A refined model radiating timeless elegance, the Saint-Valentin 2011 will undoubtedly appeal to women the world over who will be charmed by the beauty and character of this watch entirely dedicated to love.

The Saint-Valentin 2011 embodies a perfect compromise between resolute femininity and cutting-edge watchmaking techniques. The self-winding Calibre 6763 visible through the sapphire crystal back of the steel case drives complete calendar and moon-phase displays, along with small seconds at 6 o'clock, and day of the week and month indications at 12 o'clock. This Blancpain movement endowed with a 100-hour power reserve also features an

oscillating weight engraved with three hearts. Its incessant movement vividly symbolizes the perpetual whirl of human feelings.

Adorned with a bezel and mother-of-pearl dial set with 58 diamonds and a ruby, the Saint-Valentin 2011 shines with the radiance of the precious stones totaling 1.3 carats and noble materials. The purity of the watch is further enhanced by the white leather strap and makes an elegant contrast with the heart-shaped ruby appearing at the top of the bezel and the heart

embellishing the date hand.

The Saint-Valentin 2011 is issued in a 99-piece limited series and delivered in an original wooden presentation box clothed in a delicate white napa leather "corset" concealing the lock. The key that opens this precious treasure chest is enclosed within a white gold heart.

As a vibrant proof of love among countless others offered to mark this special day, the Saint-Valentin 2011 will give you far more than 99 reasons to love it.

The first race in the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo got off to a flying start in Italy on Saturday May 16th, organised within the FIA GT championship on the famous Adria racing track. As title sponsor of a championship that is truly unique in the world, Blancpain is proud to be participating in this international sports event. Its President and CEO Marc A. Hayek took the wheel of a gleaming Gallardo LP560-4 decked out in the livery of the Manufacture Blancpain. Competing alongside famous driver Peter Kox from the Netherlands, Marc A. Hayek placed third after the second round.

This first leg of an exceptional automobile championship symbolises a fascinating alliance between two legends: Blancpain, the world's oldest watch brand, and Lamborghini, one of the most iconic car manufacturers. Featuring six events in the 2009 racing calendar, the Super Trofeo provides an opportunity to see the brand-new Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 cars (delivering 570 horsepower and 540 N/m - 398 lb/ft torque enabling them to reach top speeds of over 300 km/h) in exciting action on racing tracks around Europe. Marc A. Hayek, President and CEO of Blancpain, is driving the speed machine bearing the brand colours. This powerful pairing embodies the dream of many devotees of exceptional mechanisms, and celebrates the pioneering spirit and the mechanical expertise of the Manufacture Blancpain.

Setting the crowning touch to this partnership, Blancpain has created a new horological gem: the Super Trofeo Chronograph. Like the ultra-powerful Gallardo, this timepiece equipped with a flyback function displays sophisticated character and cutting-edge technological features. Sporty by nature right through to the last component, the Super Trofeo Chronograph is issued in a limited edition of 300*.

The next five European legs of the season are scheduled to take place between June and October of this year, as follows:

• Norisring (Germany), June 26-28
• Spa Francorchamps (Belgium), July 23-25
• Silverstone (UK), August 15-16
• Catalunya (Spain), September 18-20
• Paul Ricard (France), October 2-4
