A long-term partner of H. Moser & Cie., Bucherer shares many values with the company that has been called the “little pearl of Schaffhausen”: Both are independent, Swiss companies, based in German -speaking Switzerland and were founded in the 19th century; in 1828 for H. Moser & Cie. and in 1888 for the celebrated retailer. Now, H. Moser & Cie. pays tribute to Bucherer by creating the Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition.

| Reference 2327-0202, Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition, Moser balance wheel and original Straumann Hairspring® with a stabilised Breguet overcoil, both finished in a unique blue colour. |
The particular feature of this timepiece is the colour blue; presented on the all-new dial and also on the exclusive balance wheel and hairspring, created especially for this model.
The Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition is the latest addition to the Venturer collection, which was unveiled during Baselworld in 2014. The red gold models are joined by this new version in white gold. Elegant, refined and exquisitely understated, this creation reinterprets the design codes of the Venturer family, with clean lines and a design inspired by the historic pocket watches of H. Moser & Cie. and convex forms typical of the 1960s.
Similar to the red gold versions, the Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition features a convex profile, emphasised by its domed sapphire crystal, the line of which is reflected in the dial and the long, tapered hands with curved edges.
The refined, elegant bezel offers a beautifully clear view of the dial, revealing its exceptional colour. The iconic H. Moser & Cie. fumé dial is available in a brand new midnight blue version, whose sunburst pattern adds an extra layer of detail.
The back of the watch is no less exceptional, with a blue hairspring and balance wheel visible in the hand-wound HMC 327 calibre. H. Moser & Cie.’s sister company Precision Engineering AG assists with the in-house expertise necessary to design, develop, produce and assemble the highly-specialised technical components such as the balance wheels and hairsprings. This expertise was instrumental in developing the blue treatment, creating an impression of depth in the escapement. The result is a piece that features mysterious and constantly shifting sapphire reflections.
The Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition will be available exclusively at Bucherer in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.
