H.Moser & Cie

H. Moser & Cie was established in 1828. It is known for dials that possess a gradient finish with a spare aesthetic. It revealed a varied grouping at Watches & Wonders Geneva. It reconsiders its aesthetic through strong colors, and inventive enamelling, alongside dials of valued stone.

The Endeavour Centre Seconds Concept Purple Enamel heads the new range. It has a gradient finish, alongside Grand Feu enamelling. The timepiece’s steel casing measures 40mm. It has a dial with a hammered-finish in “Purple Haze.” The creation used a process with six coatings of crushed pigments applied to a white gold base. The pigments were heated several times. The dial is free of logos or indices, maintaining the watchmaker’s philosophy.

“With the Pop collection, H. Moser & Cie. once again demonstrates that minimalism is an infinite form of expression, capable of reinventing itself and defying convention,” states the brand inside release materials.

It has a steel one, with a Matrix Green gradient finish face. Both display hand-engraved dials having a stamped texture. It makes for reflections of light. The maker writes it is “like snow in the sunlight.” These chronographs keep the HMC 907 caliber that was created with AGENHOR. It is observable via the sapphire caseback.

The Endeavour Tourbillon Concept Turquoise Enamel rounds off releases. It is 5N red gold. This timepiece is 40mm. It displays an expression of Grand Feu enamelling. It has a hammered white gold base covered with coatings of enamel. Three different pigments were needed to create the gradient finish effect. Power comes from the automatic HMC 805 calibre. It has a one-minute flying tourbillon with a dual hairspring system. It advances exactness together with isochronism.

These releases show H. Moser’s presentation that has the most color yet. It balances technical skill alongside artistic expression through lively materials together with finishes.

From fire to clay: anOrdain's porcelain revolution brings accessible artistry
anOrdain launches handcrafted porcelain watches

AnOrdain, a Glasgow-based company, built a loyal following—it made excellent hand-enameled watch dials and offered clear customer service. The Scottish maker then moved into a new material: porcelain. The company introduced its Model 2 Porcelain collection after three years of focused study. This collection gives customers a way to experience anOrdain's handmade dial art.
Work with porcelain began in 2022. At that time, anOrdain saw a need to broaden its selection. The company also wanted to keep its standards for handmade products high. Instead of buying porcelain dials from others, the company chose to learn this old art itself. AnOrdain's team spent three years with master potters from Stoke-on-Trent—a town known as a center for English pottery—learning how to make watch dials from English clay.
Making porcelain dials requires different methods than working with enamel. AnOrdain’s well-known grand feu enamel dials use glass powder on metal discs, which are baked at 840°C. But the new porcelain dials use English clay. Workers paint them with glass-like coatings and fire them at much higher temperatures, up to 1300°C. To achieve the black finish seen in the collection, the company experimented with many glaze mixtures, finally using a high amount of iron oxide.
After this hot firing, each dial shows slight differences. Small dips and dots appear as a sign of the handmade process. AnOrdain says these natural variations mean no two porcelain dials look the same. This celebrates the human touch in making fine watches.
The Model 2 Porcelain keeps the well-liked size and look of anOrdain’s enamel collection, but with some updates. The 39.5mm steel case holds the La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement, which performs well. The hands have been significantly improved. White glowing material now fills loops that were previously empty, finished with fine gold frames. The seconds hand is more striking, with a bright red outer coat and a white tip.
Production capacity is small—anOrdain can finish about 30 pieces each month. The price is $2,440, which is $750 less than the enamel versions, even though they use the same cases and movements. The current wait time is six months, and customers can buy only one watch each. The Model 2 Porcelain shows anOrdain's commitment to preserving traditional crafts in modern watchmaking. It also offers affordable luxury through transparent dealings with customers.

Breitling honors Scott Carpenter with platinum watch
Orbital legacy: Breitling's platinum tribute to space exploration pioneer
Breitling scott carpenter platinum watch

Sixty-three years after Scott Carpenter circled Earth, a custom Breitling Navitimer sat on his wrist. The Swiss maker now honors him with a platinum watch, which has a limited run. The Navitimer B02 Chronograph 41 Cosmonaute Scott Carpenter Centenary observes the American pilot's 100th birthday—it also recalls the story of the first Swiss watch to leave Earth's air.

On May 24, 1962, Carpenter became the second American to circle Earth. He flew as part of NASA's Mercury-Atlas 7 mission. A special Navitimer was on his wrist. Breitling altered it for space travel. The work began with a personal letter from Carpenter—he requested specific changes. He wanted a wider bezel for gloved hands and a stretch metal band for his space suit. Most notably, he asked for a 24-hour dial. In orbit, sunrise and sunset happen every 90 minutes. A regular 12-hour display does not show time well there.

Watch straps: What are the rules and when can you break them?
Watch straps can be a lot more complex than you expect
Man with watch and brown strap

Watch straps can be an affordable way to expand a smaller watch collection. A good quality strap can be found for under $20, and will give a timepiece a completely different look. For example, I have a brown leather strap on the vintage Oyster Perpetual I use as a daily driver, but a quick switch to a black strap makes it look like a completely different timepiece.

However, there are some rules regarding your watch’s wrist strap. Breaking said rules can make using the watch tricky and could leave you looking a little silly in some circumstances. Don’t worry, though—it’s all pretty simple. Here’s a handy guide that should get you through the basics.
