H. Moser & Cie. x The Armoury Endeavour Small Seconds Total Eclipse
Some of the coolest watch dials are those that you can't even see. A new collaboration between independent Swiss watchmaker H. Moser & Cie. and the Hong Kong menswear brand The Armoury is one such example thanks to a technical material called Vantablack. Vision depends on light, and because Vantablack absorbs 99.965% of light that hits it, it offers virtually no optical feedback and can create a feeling as if staring into a void.
It's not the first time for H. Moser & Cie. to use this material, but the new watch in its Endeavour collection offers something different and appreciated: indices. Though not quite as minimal as previous versions that featured hands appearing to float in emptiness, it makes up for it with ease of reading the time. Oh, and it's got a small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock, too. Powered by an impressive in-house movement, the two versions (one in steel and one with rose gold hands, indices and inner bezel) are limited to 28 examples each.
