Catalogue Essay
A magnificent mixture of complication and simplicity, the Moser Perpetual 1 is the perfect epitome of elegance and a reminder that a highly complicated movement does not necessarily accompanies messy display and time-setting fuss. As the brand’s motto goes, “to manufacture in-house, and to make ingenious products”, the Moser Perpetual 1 has indeed been celebrated by worldwide watch collectors for its ingenious design, even winning the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) complication category in 2006.
Adored by watch neophytes and connoisseurs alike, the best part of the Moser Perpetual 1 ‘Flash Calendar’ is that it is extremely user-friendly. It is heralded for allowing both forward and backward adjustment of the date functions with the patented double-pull crown, saving you from all the headaches incurred by the inevitable mistakes to date, month and year setting so often encountered with perpetual calendars.
The month is displayed by a delicate central hand referring to the hour markers as the twelve months of the year, while the leap year cycle indicator is visible at the top of the transparent case back, adjustable with the setting pin through the pusher on the side of the case. The movement of the watch also boosts a power reserve of seven days, as compared to the usual forty to fifty hours, which is shown by the power reserve display at the 9 o’clock of the dial. Such clever and simple design will surely put a smile on the wearer.
Encased in a pink gold three-part round case (available also in white gold or platinum), the present watch is in excellent condition, and complete with guarantee, presentation box, and other accessories. Even if you fail to appreciate the awe-striking instantaneous change ability of the ‘Flash Calendar’, it is impossible not to obsess over the quiet enchantment of the shimmering silver dial. It resonates with the pink gold hour markers on top and the subtle sub-dial with azurage to produce a unique insouciant grace. It is truly one timeless dress watch to keep for those lucky enough to own one.
