  • Catalogue Essay

    Launched in 2005, the Endeavour Perpetual has since its very conception gained instant success, even winning the 2006 GPHG complication category.

    The H.Moser Endeavour is considered one of the simplest and most elegant perpetual calendars on the market with its non-traditional design and clean dial devoid of all calendar indications other than a big date.

    The month indication is both simple and ingenious. There being twelve months in a year and twelve hour indexes on a dial, the month is indicated via a small central hand pointing to each hour index.

    A 7-day power reserve indicator placed at 9 o’clock completes the dial design.

    The leap year indicator, which is not an information needed on a daily basis is placed on the movement and visible through the caseback.

    More than just a watch with a simple appearance the present watch is also technically ingenious. The perpetual calendar is an instantaneous one, meaning all indications jump together at midnight. Another Moser first is the replaceable escapement module, where upon servicing will be removed and replaced with a fully adjusted and calibrated new module.

    Overall presented in excellent condition, this H.Moser Perpetual is a true testament to innovative horological mastery and craftsmanship. In 18k pink gold, with pink gold hour markets and hands contrasting against a silver dial, this timepiece can be dressed up or down and equally retain just the perfect balance. A great conversation starter, this watch is a true «must-have» for any serious collector of perpetual calendars and minimalistic designs.
