Beautiful photos!

Have enjoyed all the iterations of the perpetual calendar, including this standout Purity version. However, the sumptuous case and dial of the Heritage Perpetual Moon make it the standout for me. The retrograde Swiss Alp watch is a lovely watch, but I feel the clever messaging of the simple model is lost. Look forward to more joint efforts between Moser and Hautlence.

H. Moser & Cie : Novelties presented at the SIHH 2017… and more !

 
 By: Mike H : March 5th, 2017-17:57
I’ll start this post with the latest novelty presented by the brand just few days back, actually over a month after the SIHH 2017: SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE, UNDERSTATED: THE ENDEAVOUR PERPETUAL CALENDAR PURITY Complexity made simple: this is the philosophy of th...  

Thank you Mike for covering these beauties in details.

The quality of the photos I took at H. Moser's Taipri event two weeks ago were too shabby to do the watches any justice. Your photos, on the other hand, are fantastic and true to the real colors.

Thans for your kind words Luis and I well understand...

...H. Moser watches are often not easy to take in picture: they look stunning, their dial is mesmerizing but when you want to capture this with a camera pfff... reflections of light are very often ruining the splendid beauty of the watches... I did my bes... 

Thank you for the great photos, Mike!

This is the first proper non official photo of the funky blue Venturer Purity I've seen so far, and probably the most true to life. Were you able to get a photo of the funky blue beside the grey version?

You make me blush Kevin...

Thanks for the compliment Sorry no pic of the grey version but tell me if you have a dream picture and I'll do my best to make your dream come true... one day (be patient)

A terrible photo

My favourite has to be the Swiss Alps Minutes Retrograde. That retrograde is just a mechanical marvel to behold.

Yes, a true marvel...

...not a daily wearer of course but a fantastic timepiece for sure !

Indeed indeed.... [nt]

Well, you know that I love this brand as it offers fantastic dials, homemade hairsprings, wonderful movements and true innovations such as the ones inside the perpetual calendar ("flash calendar" for instance). I only have one drawback about this specific... 

Thanks for your feedback my friend ; I have a solution to your problem...

...with the date window (which between you and me does not disturb me but I respect your reluctance with it): H. Moser do make several models without date window in the Endeavour Grande or Petite Seconde, also in the Venturer line, and even with the Herit...  

Of course I could find wonderful models and, more particularly, splendid dials in the Moser collection without date but my answer was more about the date window style of the perpetual calendar. I would have enjoyed another way to display it.

For instance, the little hand for months is such a good idea and well thought that I would like something similar for the date. Moser should listen to me and work on that ))) Best wishes Alkiro

Beautiful photos!

Hi Mike!

Fantastic post , thank you. I am a bit of a slow starter when it comes to Moser and always knew they made amazing movements and even supply hairsprings to many including Kari Voutilainen. I have tried a couple on before but they have always been too large...  

The Heritage Perpetual Moon is...

...42 mm diameter and 12.2 mm height. Limited Edition 30 pièces only, around 54 keur if I recall correctly... Hope this helps

Many thanks Mike!
