H. Moser & Cie introduces Heritage Tourbillon Funky Blue
The Heritage Tourbillon Funky Blue model features round shapes with classic accents that recall Moser watches from the early 20th century. Its steel case features tapered lugs and a notched crown. But behind this piece's apparent classicism hides thoroughly irreverent aesthetics, revealed through the Heritage Tourbillon Funky Blue's electric blue dial – the most popular Moser dial – which adds a dynamic touch to the entire design. The traditional-style railway minute track appears in white to give a very modern contrasting result, while the sword-shaped hands are coated with SuperLumiNova®.

Jaguar Classic recently re-started production of the iconic 1950s D-type race car in Coventry, 64 years after the first examples were built.
