Watchmaking At Its Most Delectable
Introducing H. Moser & Cie.‘s Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon. A name which piques the curiosity. A color which flirts with legends. And, most importantly, a dial in the classic watchmaking tradition which evokes the amber glow and copper highlights of a barrel-aged whisky.
Today, this delectable yet unexpected hue makes its appearance in the Endeavour Collection, combined with the H. Moser & Cie. signature movement, for a classic, pure and minimalist interpretation of the perpetual calendar.
Its name intrigues. Its color enchants. Its movement reassures. With the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon, H. Moser & Cie. truly elevates the essentials. Precise proportions, harmony of form, depth of colors: the Endeavour collection captures the very essence of H. Moser & Cie. expertise. Its streamlined design, with no unnecessary embellishments, subtly reveals the brand’s signature neoclassical aesthetic.
In 2023, H. Moser & Cie. introduced a touch of irreverence to its most daring line with the Streamliner Centre Seconds Smoked Salmon. This was an assertive choice of color, and one which proved its merit, with Smoked Salmon going on to become a truly essential shade. The Smoked Salmon dial is making its much-awaited return, in a sophisticated, understated model. Its vertical griffé finish gives it a vibrant texture, almost mineral-like, while the Moser signature fumé effect alters the light to reveal subtle reflections, from soft copper to a warm brown. Its salmon color, a nod to timeless vintage elegance, won over even the most discerning of watch lovers. Without ever wallowing in nostalgia, it boasts a unique aesthetic, sophisticated yet unexpected.
By pairing the Smoked Salmon color, the Endeavour case and the Perpetual Calendar, the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon model brings together three H. Moser & Cie. icons. The HMC 800 calibre, one of the most intelligently designed movements on the market, offers unrivalled ease of use. Faithful to its minimalist philosophy, H. Moser & Cie. takes it even further here, by applying its logo in transparent lacquer, like a secret signature, to give full expression to the dial. At the centre, the small hand indicates the months, while a very large date window at 3 o’clock, with the “Flash Calendar” function providing an instant date change at midnight and a power reserve indicator at 9 o’clock displaying the movement’s seven days of autonomy, complete the piece. The time and date are easy to set using the crown, and can be changed at any time of the day, easily, and with no risk of damage.
With a 42-mm white gold case, paired with a dark brown alligator leather strap, the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon exudes a measured presence, classic yet never conventional. It combines tradition with freedom, eschewing flashy touches, yet making no concessions.
