To celebrate the 76th anniversary of Jingfu Jewelry and the third anniversary of its global flagship store for H. Moser & Cie., the brand has specially launched the Pioneer Centre Seconds Purple Mist timepiece. This limited edition watch, with only 38 pieces available, is exclusively sold at the flagship store in Central, offering local watch enthusiasts a choice that beautifully combines cultural significance with contemporary design.
The design of the watch is inspired by the phrase Purple energy comes from the east., symbolizing good luck, hope, and innovation, perfectly echoing the interactive relationship between the brand and the Hong Kong market. The design team opted for a gradient of deep purple hues, enhanced with a smoky finish and a sunburst pattern on the dial, creating a rich visual layer under light refraction. This is not just a timepiece with an artistic vibe; it also connects traditional and modern aesthetics through the cultural symbolism of purple.
The 40mm case is crafted from titanium, offering an exceptional lightness and corrosion resistance, ensuring a weightless feel even after long hours of wear. The one-way rotating bezel injects a sporty vibe into the watch, presenting a rare design vocabulary within H. Moser & Cie.’s timepieces, further expanding the brand’s language.
The dial markers are inlaid with Globolight® material and coated with Super-LumiNova® luminous paint, ensuring that the hour and minute hands also feature luminous accents. This guarantees clear visibility in low-light environments, merging functionality with practicality.
The watch is powered by the brand’s self-made HMC 200 automatic movement, featuring an engraved oscillating mass and the original Straumann® hairspring, ensuring stable performance and reliable timekeeping. With a diameter of 32mm and a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, it boasts a three-day power reserve and a hacking feature, all showcased through a transparent sapphire crystal case back that highlights its exquisite structure.
This watch comes with two options: a titanium metal bracelet and a black rubber strap, making it easy to switch up your style for different looks and occasions. Whether you’re dressed up for a formal event or keeping it casual, this piece is effortlessly versatile.
H. Moser & Cie. brand co-owner Bertrand Meylan stated: The recently launched Pioneer Centre Seconds Purple Mist marks a significant milestone in the brand’s collaboration with masterpiece by king fook. We aim to pay tribute to the local watch-collecting community through this limited edition timepiece specifically designed for the Hong Kong market.
This watch, symbolizing the fusion of culture and innovation, has a reference price of HK$179,000 and is officially available at the boutique in Central. Limited to just 38 pieces, it holds significant collector’s value and market buzz.
