'H.Moser and Cie,' the high-end watchmaker, has added another luxury watch to its 'Heritage Collection' of vintage-themed timepieces. The 'Heritage Bronze Since 1828' is a limited-edition luxury timepiece with only 50 units being produced. The components of the watch are an homage to 1820s watchmaking, inspired by the original works of the founder of H.Moser and Cie, Heinrich Moser. The timepiece includes a fumé dial, a Cyrillic logo from H. Moser and Cie, and a bronze case.
The bronze casing was selected for this timepiece because of the nature of bronze to age via oxidization, embracing a historical look as the bronze color turns into a variety of new colors. The dials are illuminated with 'Super-LumiNova' technology, which offers a non-toxic, non-radioactive lighting solution. The numbers are illuminated in 3D through the use of 'Globolight,' which is a mixture of Super-LumiNova and other materials for a more in-depth lighting effect.
