Celebrating its 5th anniversary this year, the Concept series by H. Moser & Cie. welcomes new limited edition timepieces.
It has been five years since H. Moser & Cie. released their first purely minimalist Concept model, equipped with a dial void of indices or logo. The fumé dial has become the brand’s signature – even without a logo – so much so that ‘fumé’ is now automatically associated with H. Moser & Cie.
In 2020, to celebrate the fifth anniversary of this launch, the manufacture is producing three new models, available in different versions, all released as limited editions, and all fitted with a Concept fumé dial.
The complete antithesis of timepieces with cluttered dials and unnecessary features, the Endeavour Centre Seconds Concept constitutes a philosophical reflection that was originally presented as a conceptual piece.
The overwhelmingly positive reaction proved that there was a real need to return to the roots and very essence of watchmaking. By showcasing their famous fumé dial – the brand’s signature – with no embellishment, indices or logo, H. Moser & Cie. made the unprecedentedly minimal “Concept” aesthetic an integral part of the Endeavour collection’s identity and design language.
Nowadays, this resolutely minimalist aesthetic has become H. Moser & Cie.’s signature, along with their fume dials in daring and surprising colours. Offering a different image of traditional watchmaking, the Schaffhausen manufacture has fostered new trends, creating timepieces which are classic but never conventional, with a design that overturns received ideas.
In honour of the fifth anniversary of their Concept series, H. Moser & Cie. has produced three new models available in different versions, which combine graceful proportions, harmonious forms, and high-end finishes with 100% Swiss Made manufacture calibres.
Available in 5N red gold, white gold or steel, in a three hand version or with a tourbillon movement, with the Endeavour case, the manufacture plays with different tones of its famous fumé dial: the famous Funky Blue and a colour previously unseen in the Endeavour family – aptly named Burgundy – are paired with the sublime brilliance of the diamonds adorning the bezel of the 38 mm model.
