Men’s fashion outpost The Armoury collaborated with H. Moser & Cie. to create a custom version of the Endeavour Small Seconds watch inspired a solar eclipse. The H. Moser & Cie. + The Armoury Total Eclipse has a steel case, seconds sub dial, Breguet hands, Vantablack® dial and comes in two versions, one with steel accents and one with red gold accents. The unique dial draws on H. Moser’s expertise with Vantablack, the darkest man-made substance in the world. The indices visible on the dial are actually holes in the Vantablack layer that reveal the dial plate underneath. Resized at The Armoury’s request to an elegant 38mm diameter, the case’s size and aesthetics were inspired by vintage pocket watches. The polished inner bezel matches the steel or red gold indices on the dial and mimics the solar corona visible during a total solar eclipse. Limited to 28 pieces of each version.
The H. Moser & Cie. + The Armoury Endeavour Small Seconds Total Eclipse ($2,500.00) is available at h-moser.com and thearmoury.com.
