Over the last number of years, H Moser has become well known for its Concept line of watches, which do away with the markings and branding usually placed on watch dials, opting instead for a clean, open look that lets the materials and finishes speak for themselves The dial of this watch is coated in Vantablack, a proprietary material that uses carbon nanotubes to absorb light.
Here it's used on a moonphase watch, which gives the moon at six o'clock the appearance of almost floating against that black backdrop With just the highly polished hands and the moon punctuating it, the expanse of black dial has a really striking appearance The watch is presented in the Moser Endeavour case, which is 42mm across and 129mm thick, wearing pretty close to the wrist and with an understated profile for something 42mm across.
Powering the watch is the caliber HMC 801, which, in addition to having Moser's own interchangeable escapement and all the high-end finishing you'd expect, includes a moonphase complication that's accurate to one day every 1,027.3 years There's actually a subtle AM/PM hand that you use to help set the display precisely in coordination with the crown and the pusher set into the case band, and then once it's set you just want to make sure you wind the watch at least once per week to keep it going - if not you can always correct it later, but where's the fun in that. .
