Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Tutorial
A minimalistic and unconventional white gold instantaneous perpetual calendar wristwatch with "tutorial" dial, 7-day power reserve, power reserve indication, part of a 20-piece limited edition
Full-Cataloguing
- The Endeavour Perpetual calendar was launched in 2005 (under the name "Perpetual Calendar 1") and quickly became one of the most appreciated and sought-after models by the brand. A truly novel approach to the complication, Moser strived to keep the dial as clean as possible, in tune with the minimalistic ethos of the brand. Thus, the dial only shows power reserve at 9, date at 3, and month indication through a tiny central hand. The leap year cycle is shown through a starwheel in the back and the day of the week indication - often, if not always, found in perpetual calendars - has been completely removed.
- Not only aesthetically groundbreaking, the watch is also an example of absolute mechanical prowess featuring instantaneous date change, the possibility of adjusting the date through the crown (both forward and backward) at any time of the day without risks for the movement, and a remarkable 7-day power reserve.
- The present iteration is one of the rarest and most collectible: the 20-piece "Tutorial" edition, with the dial doubling as an informal "instruction manual" thanks to the scribbled notes detailing the various functions of the watch.
