I have put in a question with the good people at Moser. But I strongly believe that the Moser timepiece here has no anti-reflective coating. Generally, considering how absorbing that Vantablack dial is, I don't see a real need for an anti-reflective coating except under the brightest of lights. Who knows, maybe they wanted the watch to have some glare so it would catch more lights with all those flashbulbs! Who knows... just a guess. But I've asked the good people at Moser and we should have an answer soon.
Wow! You're a three-Moser household! Excellent taste!

WatchProSite Review: H. Moser Venturer Vantablack Diamonds Watch
By: patrick_y : March 19th, 2021-13:01
WatchProSite Moderator Patrick_y reviews the H. Moser Venturer Vantablack Diamonds Concept watch. After meeting a few celebrities wearing jeweled watches, Patrick_y has been fascinated with jeweled watches, because of their sparkle and because they're pra...
Admittedly, same here.

I was expecting with 3.77 carats that we'd be looking at a roughly $30,000 USD premium (around $8,000 per carat for small pave diamonds, the money is in the labor in the application of the stones) over a standard gold-cased Moser. But it's slightly less t...
Not a terrible price...

...but I wish they (and others) would add some inward angles to the movement : )
Ahh, a true aficionado!
By: patrick_y : March 21st, 2021-11:33
Yes, some sharper and concave angles combined with terminal edges would be more emotional! And would require more hand operations!
Thinner is always more elegant...

...the diamonds alone make the statement. Nobody wants to wear a watch that pushes the cuff of the shirt up on one side : )
I have to admit i like it a lot .

Not something you will wear every day but def a watch that can have a nice spot in a collection imho
It is very nice indeed!

If I had some extra money lying around, I'd get a jeweled watch. I already miss it a little bit!
The real question is...

What spoon did you expect to use? π€π€π€π€ππππππ
Ahh, eating caviar must never be done with a metal spoon...
By: patrick_y : March 21st, 2021-11:22
Eating caviar with a metal spoon makes one taste the metallic-taste of the spoon because caviar has a certain chemical reaction when it comes in contact with many types of metals. Thus, eating caviar must be done with a non metal spoon, made of plastic, h...
Thank you

I'll dig a bit more, I got curious π
I'm a big fan

of Moser (my wife has one, I have two). The watches are of high quality with reasonable value for money and the movements are exceptional. I also love the reduced design and the special dials from Moser. As practical as the diamond-studded case is, it wou...

Thank you very much for your effort!
By: MTR : March 22nd, 2021-15:09
My experience was that the model that I was able to see had a strong mirror effect that counteracted the effect of the Vantablack. This was the Perpetual Moon Vantablack model. I found a photo on the internet that shows this effect. But maybe that was onl...
I'm shrugging my shoulders.

Honestly, when I had the watch, I didn't think it had any AR coating. So I'm a tiny bit surprised that there's an AR coating on the inside of this piece.
Who knows... π
By: MTR : March 22nd, 2021-17:53
What I can definitely say: my Moser Endeavor Perpetual Calendar Purity with its very, very dark black-blue dial is significantly less reflective than the one Vantablack model I saw. Nevertheless: your Vantablack Diamonds watch is a marvel and gem and look...
Very very nice piece!
By: patrick_y : March 26th, 2021-10:04
That piece is extraordinary! I did enjoy the piece that was loaned to me by Moser very much. I was a little sad to have to return it. And Iβm sure Iβd enjoy yours very much too!
That is an interesting subject and thoughtful review.

I am of the opinion that a watch should be appropriate for the occasion and this is no exception. I have read that there are special celebrity men's suits for the red carpet that come with one sleeve shorter than the other so the watch will appear in in p...
