» The MOSER PERPETUAL GOLDEN EDITION

It is now more than five years since Moser introduced the Perpetual 1 as the world’s fi rst watch with the already legendary Flash Calendar[…] … It is still the only watch with a perpetual calendar which can be accessed with consummate ease and only via the crown, and without even having to read the operating instructions[…] … No restrictions whatsoever hamper the adjustment of the calendar forwards or backwards[…] … Not even when the watch itself is on the point of advancing to the next day[…] … Taken together with all its other functions, this watch is still without parallel anywhere in the world[…] … Moser has taken this minor anniversary as the opportunity to develop a strictly limited special edition of 100 pieces for collectors of the brand in the form of the PERPETUAL GOLDEN EDITION[…] … As the name suggests, gold has a major role to play in this watch. It goes without saying that we have been accustomed for some time to all the cases of the H[…] … Moser & Cie brand being manufactured only from precious metals[…] … The pallet fork and the escapement wheel of the interchangeable escapement module of every watch are also made from solid gold[…] … This naturally also applies to the Double Hairspring escapement of the GOLDEN EDITION[…] … Likewise, the weight compensation screws of the Glucydur balance also consist of solid white gold[…] … Apart from the Double Hairspring escapement first realized by Moser with two Straumann hairsprings, which are diffi cult to manufacture and render any tourbillon superfl uous, there is nothing particularly special in all this[…] … As if that were not enough. The extraordinary perpetual calendar from Moser and the Double Hairspring escapement are enhanced with valueretaining 18-carat rose gold as the material for the plate and bridges of the movement[…] … In other words, a solid gold movement, complemented by mirror-fi nished steel components which could not be replaced by gold for reasons of functionality[…] … This provides a highly attractive contrast to the matt-finished surface of the gold bridges and is further supplemented by the extremely intricate, and as such rare, hand-chamfering of the gold bridges[…] … This can only be appreciated with the knowledge that the watchmaker has facetted and polished the edges by hand all the way into the smallest corners[…] … Consequently there is no rounding, and it becomes evident – although only under a loupe – that the polishing of the edges tapers away into the corners[…] … The Moser company seal, used as a symbol of excellent quality and authenticity for 185 years, is incidentally also engraved by hand in this movement[…] … A further superlative is visible on the movement even without using a loupe[…] … The MOSER PERPETUAL GOLDEN EDITION is the first watch in the world to have a genuine, functional diamond end stone in the Incabloc shock-absorber[…] … In fact, there is one on either side of the shock-absorber, even if only the stone on the movement side is visible[…] … The jewel bearings under the end stone are also an embodiment of pure understatement[…] … They are manufactured not from red rubies, in the conventional way, but from white sapphire[…] … Otherwise, a red glow would emanate from the underlying jewel bearing[…] … In the face of all these superlatives, it is only natural for the dial, the hour appliques markers and, of course, all the hands to be made of solid gold[…] … And, in the best traditions of Moser, while the Double Hairspring escapement of the watch ensures that no gravitational error can occur, the dial has handcrafted fumé shading[…] … This gold watch in the truest sense of the word with a perpetual calendar which can be adjusted forwards and backwards at any time, and which changes within less than one second – even when it advances directly from 28 February to 1 March – represents watchmaking at the very highest level[…] … This watch embodies everything that H. Moser & Cie stands for[…] … Its appearance is elegant with a touch of understatement, and the unbelievable complexity of the inhouse movements only becomes apparent on closer inspection[…] … Two spring barrels, true bevel wheels for gentle, low-wear winding, a guaranteed 7-day power reserve, the patented Double Pull Crown system, and screwed gold mounts together with the Moser tooth system in the entire wheel train clearly demonstrate what Moser understands as traditional watchmaking[…] … Authenticity and exclusivity down to the smallest detail and the resolve not to source parts from high-volume production of any kind[…] … Of course, this work of art is also visible through the sapphire crystal back of the watch.

There has also been a Mediterranean addition to the MONARD family[…] … Alongside the MAYU MARRONE, introduced last year and already very successful in its own right, the slightly larger MONARD MARRONE with a brown dial is now also available[…] … Joie de vivre, elegance and understatement are combined in a distinctly puristic three-hand watch. In typical Moser fashion, the brown tones of the dials are nuanced in accordance with the case material[…] … On the one hand through the distinctive ground pattern of the lustrous chestnut brown dial, which harmonizes perfectly with the warm golden tone of the rose gold case[…] … And on the other hand with a pronounced dark brown tone in the white gold version[…] … The watch is thus imparted with a radiance which emphasizes the cooler white case to great effect[…] … The hour appliques markers are in the same colour as the respective case and are given a diamond-polished finish. Hands executed in the same colour exhibit the typical Moser three-dimensional form with a bright-polished eye of the hand[…] … The distinctive feature of a three-hand watch is its outstanding readability, which is not impaired by any other element of the display[…] … Additionally, the elegant dial is otherwise animated by only a single, large centre seconds hand, with the help of which the watch can be set accurately to the second[…] … True to tradition, the minute hand extends precisely as far as the outer end of the minute appliques markers[…] … No movement-retaining ring detracts from this perfect composition between the case and the inhouse movement that is used only by Moser[…] … This is exclusivity in its purest form[…] … The MOSER cal[…] … HMC343 movement is a 7-day hand-wound movement with a diameter of 34 mm and a Moser tooth system optimized for high efficiency in the entire wheel train[…] … Two large spring barrels arranged one behind the other provide a power reserve of more than 170 hours, enabling the watch to indicate the time reliably for more than seven days even without being wound[…] … A power reserve display on the back of the movement is visible through the sapphire crystal window in the case back[…] … With an external diameter of 40[…] … 8 mm, it has a size which corresponds perfectly to current needs[…] … Moser-specific case sides, known as freely formed lateral surfaces, make the three-part case readily identifiable by a connoisseur[…] … Complemented by a crown with a stylized “M”[…] … The harmonious coordination of satin-finished and polished case surfaces assures unobtrusive elegance[…] … The use of true bevel wheels in the winding system guarantees gentle, low-wear operation – a worldwide rarity in wristwatches[…] … The arrangement of the fourth and third wheels beneath a common wheel-train bridge is typically Moser[…] … This feature is already evident in the Moser pocket watches of the 19th century[…] … The same is true of the engraved company seal, a symbol for the quality and authenticity of all genuine Moser watches that has been in use for 185 years[…] … Chamfered and polished edges, a sun pattern ground fi nish on the plate and bridges, together with the historic Moser ground stripes, serve to emphasize the intrinsic value of this movement that is visible through the sapphire crystal back[…] … It goes without saying, of course, that this watch incorporates the typical interchangeability of the Moser escapement with its gold pallet fork, gold escapement wheel and Straumann hairspring[…]

» H. Moser & Cie: Extraordinary technology in fascinatingly elegant watches

H. Moser & Cie is again revolutionizing the heart of the mechanical watch: this time, the escapement[…] … The interchangeable Moser escapement module in all watches from H. Moser & Cie created a major sensation throughout the world at the time of its introduction[…] … The use of traditional materials of the highest grade in conjunction with the simplest and most reliable interchangeability appealed to watchmakers and watch enthusiasts alike[…] … The balance springs, which in combination with the balance are responsible for the basic rate of the watch, are of course still manufactured from the self-compensating material Nivarox[…] … This allows the so-called Breguet terminal curve to be bent in the second plane above the balance spring[…] … When correctly dimensioned, this curve ensures that the balance spring does not become distorted as it oscillates, and the centre of gravity remains at the centre of the arbor, so that the gravitational force of the earth is unable to produce any errors[…] … Double hairspring escapement from Moser Although theoretically correct, a minutely small residual error always remains in practice, because the terminal curve, which is very intricate to bend, does not actually possess a 100% ability to ensure that the centre of gravity remains at the centre of the arbor - a fact which naturally irritates the watchmaker/ inventors at Moser[…] … Accordingly, they searched for a compensation process with which to equalize this gravitational error at its point of origin, rather than simply attempting to eliminate the effect of the error, as is the case with a tourbillon, for example[…] … The result is the double hairspring escapement from Moser[…] … In this escapement, two balance springs of identical construction are arranged in such a way that the centres of gravity of the two springs move outwards on opposing symmetrical paths during oscillation[…] … The cumulative centre of gravity of the two springs thus remains at the centre of the arbor at all times, and as such has no negative influence on the accuracy of the watch. The prerequisite to manufacturing such a complicated escapement system, of course, is the ability to master the production of the balance springs down to the smallest detail[…] … It is essential to be able to guarantee that both balance springs possess identical characteristic curves and attachments[…] … H. Moser & Cie, working jointly with its associate company, Precision Engineering AG, has developed the Straumann Hairspring� on the basis of the formula drawn up by the original inventor of the Nivarox material, Prof[…] … h.c[…] … Reinhard Straumann[…] … This has ensured that the material exhibits the necessary homogeneity and the appropriate mechanical properties[…] … What is more, the balance springs are manufactured so consistently that they are even able to ensure uniform compensation for any elasticity in the presence of temperature fluctuations[…] … In this way, the centre of gravity does not wander from the centre even in response to changes in temperature[…] … This revolutionary escapement was named the STRAUMANN DOUBLE HAIRSPRING escapement in tribute to Prof[…] … h.c[…] … Reinhard Straumann, who patented the material Nivarox and the associated manufacturing technologies in 1931[…] … As befits Moser, this STRAUMANN DOUBLE HAIRSPRING escapement is also executed as an interchangeable module, which can be easily replaced by releasing only two screws[…] … It naturally also includes an escape wheel and pallet fork in solid gold with the hardened functional surfaces for low-friction and wear-reduced operation that are typical of Moser[…] … The blocking lever incorporated in all watches in the collection from H. Moser & Cie also ensures that the escapement in this extraordinary escapement module can be removed with the barrel fully wound, but without the watch running down uncontrollably[…] … Extraordinary technology in fascinatingly elegant watches is what makes the collection from H.
