Each of the 100 pieces produced was carefully cut from 1 to 1.2 mm thick stone discs using a CNC machine, which were then hand-polished to emphasize the natural features and give them a slightly marbled look.
Because jade is translucent at this thickness, the back is varnished to make it look opaque.
Stone is a perfect canvas Open heart flying tourbillon Located at 6 o'clock, a minimalist approach was chosen with few key features for the rest of the dial Hour markers exclusively at 12, 3 and 9 o'clock.
The driving force behind this problem is a HMC 804 automatic caliber Equipped with a double hairspring that provides a power reserve of 72 hours.
Thanks to integrated coils, the movement of the center of gravity of each spring is corrected during expansion and the impact of friction is reduced, resulting in greater precision.
This is not the first time H. Moser & Cie has played with stone spheres, and in the past it has included jade and lapis lazuli, which were presented in a unique tantalum case design.
