  • Catalogue Essay

    - Famous for their minimalistic designs and beautiful craftmanship, H. Moser & Cie released the Endeavour Flying Hours in 2018. The innovative and playful design made time display without hands possible, and it is poetic execution of a unique flow of time. As the original version was sold out immediately during the SIHH, the brand introduced 2 additional limited editions of the Endeavour Flying Hours, one of which is the present white gold edition with grey fumé dial and blue disks (the other comes with a green dial), each limited to 100 pieces only.

    - The wandering hours complication in fact goes back a long way in the history of horology with one of its first examples found on the Tabernacle Night Clock presented by the famous clockmaker Campani brothers to the Pope Alexander VII of Rome in the 17th century. The enchanting complication has been taken on by Audemars Piguet for the “Star Wheel” and Arnold & Son for their “Golden Wheel”.

    - Moser’s approach on the wandering hours for the Endeavour Flying Hours is highly aesthetic. In a quintessential H. Moser & Cie fashion, the stunning grey fumé dial with sunburst pattern renders the watch instantly recognizable even without the brand name. The grey dial juxtaposes with the blue rotating luminescent jumping hour disks which would not fail to bring joy to the wearer when viewed in darkness. The complication operates with the hour disks maintaining their positions at 4, 8, and 12 o’clock, and the central stationary disk points to the minutes as they rotate.

    - The present watch is presented in excellent overall condition, and complete with its full accessories, and is certainly one not to be missed by collectors of fine horology.
