H. MOSER & CIE. – VENTURER Small Seconds Bucherer Edition




















H. MOSER & CIE.VENTURER Small Seconds Bucherer Edition NEW

THE FUSION OF TECHNOLOGY AND BEAUTY

Neuhausen am Rheinfall, October 20th, 2014

Master watchmaker Heinrich Moser was also an enlightened man of business, an astute entrepreneur and an industrial pioneer internationally as well as in his home town Schaffhausen. Using his entrepreneurial spirit, he further evolved the watchmaking craft, putting in place a truly international service and importantly, a network of specialist retailers. A long-term partner of H. Moser & Cie., Bucherer shares many values with the company that has been called the "little pearl of Schaffhausen": both are independent Swiss companies, based in German-speaking Switzerland and both were founded in the 19th century; H. Moser & Cie. in 1828, and the celebrated retailer Bucherer in 1888. Today, H. Moser & Cie. pays tribute to Bucherer by creating the Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition. The particular feature of this timepiece is the colour blue; presented on the all-new midnight blue fumé dial and on the exclusive balance wheel and hairspring, created especially for this model.

Venturer: the name evokes the successful business ventures of Heinrich Moser and celebrates his entrepreneurial spirit. The Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition is the latest addition to the Venturer collection, which was unveiled during Baselworld in 2014. The red gold models are joined by this new version in white gold.

Elegant, refined and exquisitely understated, this creation reinterprets the design codes of the Venturer family, with clean lines and a design inspired by the historic pocket watches of H. Moser & Cie. and convex forms typical of the 1960s.

 Similar to the red gold versions, the Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition features a convex profile, emphasised by its domed sapphire crystal, the line of which is reflected in the dial and the long, tapered hands with curved edges.

The refined, elegant bezel offers a beautifully clear view of the dial, revealing its exceptional colour. The iconic H. Moser & Cie. fumé dial is available in a brand new midnight blue version, whose sunburst pattern adds an extra layer of detail.

The back of the watch is no less exceptional, with a blue hairspring and balance wheel visible in the hand-wound HMC 327 calibre.

H. Moser & Cie.’s sister company Precision Engineering AG assists with the in-house expertise necessary to design, develop, produce and assemble the highly-specialised technical components such as the balance wheels and hairsprings. This expertise was instrumental in developing the blue treatment, creating an impression of depth in the escapement. The result is a piece that features mysterious and constantly shifting sapphire reflections.

The Venturer Small Seconds Bucherer Edition will be available exclusively at Bucherer in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

Original from all angles

A two-tone dial with two vintage-style counters, and a double caseback complete with a cover: the Transocean Chronograph Edition limited series reinterprets the contemporary classic style of the Transocean line in a highly exclusive spirit. A tribute to Breitling’s priviledged ties with the chronograph.

A two-tone dial with two counters and a double caseback complete with a cover: the Transocean Chronograph Edition reinterprets the pure styling of this contemporary classic in a highly exclusive spirit.

Inspired by a star model from 1958 (an ultra-precise, anti-shock, anti-magnetic and super-water-resistant watch that magnificently accompanied the boom in intercontinental air travel), the Transocean reflects the spirit of great journeys and luxury long-haul aircraft. Breitling now introduces it in a limited series radiating originality.

The front exudes a blend of dynamism and refinement: the dial bearing two vintage-style counters and a date window at 6 o’clock is adorned with a twinzone silver-toned décor, applied hour-markers and the 18K gold version of the B initial that served for many years as the Breitling symbol.

The result is a technical, pared-down style echoing that of the finest classic chronographs. Turning the watch reveals another surprise, since the steel case is distinguished by a double back protected by a cover providing space for a personalized engraving and a sapphire crystal affording a chance to admire an exclusive ‘engine’:
