Henry Moser
H. Moser & Cie. The brand has always been very playful, like this Swiss Alp Watch “Unlimited Restart” watch, when it was released, it brought a lot of heated discussions.
The Vantablack® dial used in this watch is composed of millions of carbon nanotubes. It is mainly used in the aviation and military industries to create a black hole-like effect by limiting the reflection of light. The pattern that appears to be “loading” is actually a small seconds dial with a white gradient, constantly rotating at 6 o’clock.
Although it looks like a smart watch, when you turn to the back of the watch, you will find that it is a mechanical watch with a peculiar contrast.
It’s also cool to get started. Although it doesn’t even have a minute hand or an hour hand, it has a philosophical sense. It is like contemporary art and it is thought-provoking, and it seems to tell you to hurry up. There was only one piece of this watch on display this time. It was previously limited to 50 pieces, and it was quickly sold out. This watch will also be auctioned on JD.com, with a starting price of 248 thousand.
There is also an Endeavour Tourbillon Concept Tiger’s Eye (Endeavour Tourbillon Concept Tiger’s Eye), which has an elegant and modern appearance, and boldly discards the brand logo and hour markers, and only reveals the minute flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock. , The design concept is very avant-garde.
According to legend, tiger’s eye stone possesses sunlight-like energy, it is said to bring protection, is also a symbol of self-confidence, a guarantee of health and prosperity, and it also has a good meaning when worn on the hand.
