H. Moser & Cie. Endeavour Perpetual Moon 1801-1200 Vantablack

Launced in 2018 and limited to just fifty pieces and featuring a 40mm stainless steel case with a jet black “Vantablack” (which absorbs 99.965% of light) dial, the Endeavour Perpetual Moon ref. 1801-1200 embraces all of the signature design motifs that have come to define H. Moser & Cie’s modern offering. Written into the Endeavour's DNA is its minimalist styling and the ref. 1801-1200nhas minimalism in abundance thanks to the genius of its display. Embracing Moser’s signature fume effect, the Endeavour Moon’s “Vantablack” dial is as black as a dial can get, with no branding or indices disturbing its aesthetic besides the moonphase aperture at 6 o’clock. Powered by Moser's beautifully-finished in-house cal. HMC801 manual-wind movement that is proudly displayed behind an exhibition caseback, the Endeavour Perpetual Moon comes with a 7-day power reserve and its eponymous moonphase indicator as previously mentioned. An incredible watch made to be worn and enjoyed, this rare beauty signifies Moser’s understated philosophy whereby their watches and their artisanal execution do the talking and their unique ideas inject fun and intrigue into what is normally a conservative industry. THE DIAL Painted with Vantblack, a pigment coating developed in 2014 by the British company Surrey Nanosystems that absorbs 99.965% of the light that hits it, this example's display is exceptionally unique, yet still within Moser's aesthetic with its lack of branding or indices. THE CONSTRUCTION Made of stainless steel and boasting a 40mm diameter, the Endeavour Perpetual Moon is a perfectly sized watch with its large moonphase aperture demanding attention and highlighting its incredible craftsmanship.
