Harry Winston, Inc. is an American luxury jeweler and producer of Swiss timepieces.[2][3] The company was founded in 1932 as Harry H. Winston Jewels, Inc. and changed its name to Harry Winston Inc. in January 1936.[4][5] The company is named after its founder, Harry Winston, who was called by many as the "King of Diamonds".[2][6][7][8][9]

Harry Winston is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious jewelry manufacturers in the world.[10][11][12][13][14] The company has its headquarters in New York City, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Swiss Swatch Group, which acquired it from the Toronto-based Harry Winston Diamond Corporation (now known as ACDC) in January 2013.[3][5][15]
