Moser Perpetual: a more detailed study of the finishing

I photographed the Moser Perpetual 1 some time ago...the photographs appear here.

As a followup, this is a detailed look at the movement, showing the salient features of the quite excellent finish:



Zooming in on the escapement:



The entire esacapement, can be unscrewed at the ends of the bridge, and removed. Moser provides service centers with pre-poised, balanced, timed and adjusted escapements, so field replacements are possible. Click on the image for a 1920 pixel wide image.

And to show off the sharp curves, and fine anglage finishing, here is a closeup of the bridges. Note also the beautiful jewel within the gold chaton with screws holding the chaton to the bridge.
