H. Moser & Cie Heritage Dual Time
Featuring H. Moser & Cie’s new HMC 809 automatic movement with a dual time function, the new Heritage Dual Time is a beautiful balance of old-school aesthetics meeting modern technologies. From the rich burgundy dial to the cathedral-like hands and numerals, the Heritage Dual Time is a fantastically prominent, loud and characteristically individual timepiece. It’s eccentric all the while being subtle and inconspicuous to the untrained eye. Certainly not a piece for everyone, I absolutely love it! Shop H.
