Following on from the Streamliner Centre Seconds Matrix Green model, nicknamed "Green Dragon" by the brand's fans, H. Moser & Cie. is adding a new colour to its catalogue, with the Streamliner Centre Seconds Smoked Salmon.
Focusing on the essential, this three-hand watch combines classic elegance with a vintage feel, providing a perfectly balanced aesthetic. This special edition will be available for one year only.
Inspired by and named after the first high-speed trains of the 1920s and 1930s, while reinterpreting their rounded curves, the Streamliner Centre Seconds features a 40.0 mm cushion-shaped steel case, which is water resistant to 12 ATM.
Its highly ergonomic design has no lugs on the case and a fully integrated steel bracelet. The case middle has hollowed and satin-finished forms on the sides, and alternating brushed and polished surfaces, in a nod to the traditional unusual shapes typical of Moser cases.
It is topped by a subtly domed sapphire crystal, echoed by the see-through case back. Extending these curves, the integrated steel bracelet is elegantly arced to follow the line of the wrist. Highly complex in construction, this bracelet has extremely fluid lines, based on organic forms.
All the links are articulated and feature a gentle wave combining a vertical brushed finish with polished surfaces. A true technical feat, this bracelet is a masterpiece of subtlety and sophistication, with flexibility to match.
To further elevate the steel of the case and the bracelet, H. Moser & Cie. has created a brand-new fumé dial called Smoked Salmon. This colour, a classic in Haute Horology, adds an exquisitely vintage touch to this model. Stunningly vivid, it passes through a broad spectrum of hues as the wrist moves, shifting from chocolate through to gold.
Along with a griffé finish found only on special editions (this model will be available for one year only), the dial constantly plays with light, moving from black to a surprising mirror effect. To display the hours and minutes, the three-dimensional hands made from two sections feature inserts with Globolight®, an innovative ceramic-based material containing Super-LumiNova®.
To those who say it does not look like salmon, Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie. and seasoned fly fisher, says: "There is salmon and there is salmon. Our inspiration does not come from the traditional Atlantic salmon, or "Salmo salar" to give it its Latin name, but from its very rare cousin, the "Oncorhynchus kisutch". Allowed to mature in total freedom and massaged each day by specialists using an oil infused with aromatic herbs picked from the slopes of the Himalayas, this species only eats crustaceans that have been pre-digested by pink flamingos. Each individual fish is smoked using a secret recipe made using Scottish whisky. This is what gives the flesh this exceptional colour, and is the inspiration behind our new dial."
Bringing the Streamliner Centre Seconds Smoked Salmon model to life is the HMC 200automatic calibre, which is designed, developed and produced entirely in-house. It is equipped with a regulating organ manufactured by Precision Engineering AG, the sister company of H. Moser & Cie.
Decorated with the famous Moser double stripes, the HMC 200calibre houses a large, engraved, solid gold oscillating weight, and guarantees a minimum three-day power reserve.

H. Moser & Cie.'s highly acclaimed Pioneer line will now be available with a new 40 mm case. A true all-terrain model which can be worn on land and – thanks to its water-resistance to 12 ATM – underwater, the Pioneer model is equipped to meet all the challenges of an active life.
The heart beating inside this evenly proportioned steel case is the H. Moser & Cie. HMC 200 automatic calibre on the three-hand model, while the more complicated model is equipped with the HMC 804 Manufacture movement with flying tourbillon featuring a double hairspring.
With their impressive "Arctic Blue" dials, these two new creations from H. Moser & Cie. are a breath of fresh air. Striking and radiant, the dial features the brand logo at 12 o'clock, set in transparent lacquer for a minimalist look, like a secret signature subtly revealed.
A genuine work of art, it enhances the steel case of the Pioneer Centre Seconds and Pioneer Tourbillon, previously released with a diameter of 42.8 mm, and now available in a 40 mm version, still perfectly at home on land and underwater to 12 ATM.
Ready to take on any situation, the Pioneer Tourbillon and Pioneer Centre Seconds Arctic Blue are designed for grabbing life with both hands, emphasising legibility and comfort in a contemporary understated style. In addition to their faceted applique indices topped with Super-LumiNova® dots, these models have leaf-shaped hands which are also filled with Super-LumiNova®.
At the heart of the Pioneer Tourbillon Arctic Blue beats a true marvel of ingenuity. Designed and produced in-house by H. Moser & Cie.'s sister company, Precision Engineering AG, the HMC 804 automatic Manufacture calibre is equipped with a double hairspring.
Thanks to this pair of perfectly matched hairsprings, the movement of the point of gravity on each spring when it expands is corrected, significantly improving accuracy and isochronism in continual pursuit of perfection. In addition, the paired hairsprings also reduce the effect of friction normally experienced with a single hairspring, improving isochronism.
Finally, thanks to its unique design, the tourbillon is an interchangeable module, assembled and regulated independently of the movement via a simple Plug & Play system which allows for easy servicing.
The result is a tourbillon better adapted to the needs of users in an era in which we jump from work to the gym, then home to family. The Pioneer Tourbillon Arctic Blue is perfect for our modern way of life, effortlessly combining aesthetics, elegance and modernity.
As for the Pioneer Centre Seconds Arctic Blue, this piece is equipped with an HMC 200automatic movement. Designed, developed and produced in-house, this calibre is equipped with a regulating organ, also manufactured in-house.
Decorated with the famous Moser double stripes on the bridges and the main plate, housing a large engraved oscillating weight, and offering a guaranteed minimum power reserve of three days, the HMC 200 calibre is 100% Swiss, 100% Moser.
Boasting a fresh, striking look, the Pioneer Tourbillon and Pioneer Centre Seconds Arctic Blue models can be matched with a rubber, textile or leather strap, or a steel bracelet, making them the perfect accessory for any occasion.

The H. Moser & Cie. perpetual calendar is widely considered to be the most legible and easy to set on the market, as it can be adjusted both forwards and backwards at any time of day. In 2023, H. Moser & Cie. introduces this iconic model with a tantalum case – the first ever use of this rare and prestigious metal in the brand's history.
In shades of anthracite and blue, this unique material is enhanced by the ancestral technique of enamelling, featuring vibrant colours and an ultra-contemporary hammered texture to bring the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Tantalum Blue Enamel to life.
Discovered in 1802 by Swede Anders Gustav Ekeberg, tantalum is a highly dense and extremely strong metal. Tantalum surfaces in contact with air develop a fine layer of oxidation that protects the metal against aggression. Tantalum offers anti-corrosive properties, and does not react with most chemical agents or dissolve in acid.
This extremely malleable metal is both hard and ductile, which means it can be easily drawn out and worked with precision and finesse. With a melting point of around 3000 °C, it requires advanced metallurgical expertise to machine. Its very dark grey colour is enhanced by bluish reflections, and does not tarnish. An exceptionally stable metal, tantalum combines beauty with durability.
And, as Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie., explains, while it certainly offers some interesting special properties, it was also a personal choice: "When I was 18, my parents gave me my first Haute Horology watch, which was made from tantalum. Ever since then, I have dreamed of introducing this metal at H. Moser & Cie., in spite of the challenges it poses. It took more than two years of testing before we were able to polish the surfaces of our case, a feat that few have been able to match, with most preferring to sandblast or satin-finish tantalum".
An iconic model, the perpetual calendar by H. Moser & Cie. is known for its complex movement, which nevertheless boasts unrivalled ease of use. The absence of a subdial and date disc makes it very easy to read.
With the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Tantalum Blue Enamel, H. Moser & Cie. takes its minimalist philosophy even further by removing the brand logo and all indices except for those at 12 and 6 o'clock, in order to showcase the full beauty of the "Grand Feu" enamel dial.
Starting with a pattern engrained onto a gold base, as if hammered, four different colour pigments are washed, finely crushed, then applied to create an ombré effect. Careful work and limitless patience are required for the master enameller to painstakingly apply the pigments, adding them one by one so that the colours oxidise and meld together when heated in the furnace, without any pixellation.
A translucent "Grand Feu" enamel dial must be fired twelve times in total to create the signature H. Moser & Cie. fumé effect. Each dial is unique. The finish is remarkable: resolutely contemporary, with a particularly complex texture and an intense hue christened Abyss Blue.
At the centre, the small hand indicates the months, while a very large date window at 3 o'clock, with the "Flash Calendar" function providing an instant date change at midnight and a power reserve indicator at 9 o'clock displaying the movement's seven days of autonomy, complete the piece. The time and date are easy to set using the crown, and can be changed at any time of the day. Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO
H. Moser & Cie. has revolutionised the perpetual calendar by transforming a complication designed for the most discerning of collectors into a watch that even a child could operate. The resulting aesthetic is instantly recognisable, proving that real luxury is a question of identity – even without obvious markers.

Keeping up with the times and with the pioneering spirit of its founder, Heinrich Moser, H. Moser & Cie. is diving into a new immersive luxury experience for its customers. Using an approach that combines physical, digital and virtual dimensions, H. Moser & Cie. is introducing a cutting-edge, customer-focused solution.
Through a holistic ecosystem, including blockchain watch authentication, digital assets and its own dedicated metaverse space, H. Moser & Cie. is offering a completely new definition of service. Pushing its boundaries and stepping out of its comfort zone, H. Moser & Cie. has embarked with select partners, experts in their fields, to guide the company in its exploration of new technologies enabling enhanced security and deeper user engagement. A whole network has been created for this pioneering exploration of a new world.
UNCHARTED TERRITORY TO BE EXPLORED
Back in 2020, H. Moser & Cie. was one of the first independent watch brands to launch an e-commerce and CPO platform.
True to its adventurous spirit, it is continuing in this initiative by setting out to conquer Web 3.0. Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie., explains: "We are at the dawn of a new technological era. For us, it seemed crucial to evolve with our times and to take a clear stance, playing an active role in defining the rules of this still little-known world, whilst remaining humble, and asking the right questions. Entrepreneurship is in our DNA and we strive to cultivate this philosophy by taking risks and exploring new uncharted territories".
H. Moser & Cie. has developed a complete ecosystem that offers blockchain product authentication for enhanced multi-level security and transparency, exclusive privileges enabled by digital assets ownership, and a metaverse space intended to both showcase its products and benefit its customers.
AN APP ENABLING ACCESS TO A NEW MOSER ENVIRONMENT
This large-scale project is multi-layered and mixes physical, digital and virtual dimensions. It is based on the development of a complete ecosystem structured through a dedicated app allowing watch authentication through blockchain technology, provided by Aura Blockchain Consortium.
Through Aura SaaS, customers can access complete traceability and transparency through the product's lifecycle from certification, warranty, insurance and further customer services. This authentication will eventually be introduced for all Moser watches via the warranty card that is included with each model. Non-speculative digital assets have also been created in the form of NFTs including digital artworks, in particular short "time capsule" videos promoting the product and the watchmakers behind it, ultimately sealing forever on the blockchain the moment each watch has completed production.
Alongside this, H. Moser & Cie. has developed an immersive metaverse experience inviting customers to step into a new Moser universe supported by a mix of tradition and latest technologies. In this metaverse space, visitors can discover the history of the brand and the manufacture, and meet the Moser team in a new dimension. Designed to enable its customers and its community to enjoy a virtual experience, this metaverse space draws its inspiration from current leading virtual worlds.
Designed as a modern, minimalist Swiss chalet, it comprises both classic references to Switzerland as well as specific references to the brand, such as the Rhine Falls (Rheinfall), where the manufacture has its headquarters. Designed to develop and evolve, this universe opens the doors to the imaginative world of Moser.
This pioneering project centres around a concept watch available as a limited edition of 50 pieces; this timepiece incorporates aesthetic codes from the virtual to the tangible: its 3D-printed titanium crown and bezel appear pixelated and are perfectly paired with the watch's microblasted steel case.
This is the first piece in an exclusive triptych which will give each owner access to the next two pieces. Christened the Endeavour Centre Seconds Genesis, or 01100111 01100101 01101110 01100101 01110011 01101001 01110011 in binary code, this timepiece is a hybrid product, combining both physical and virtual dimensions.
Each Genesis timepiece bears a unique QR code engraved on its sapphire crystal that allows to authenticate watch ownership, offering its owner privileged access to the entire dedicated digital and virtual ecosystem, in particular giving them priority to purchase certain future limited editions, membership of the Moser community, and exclusive invitations to brand launch events, and more. This is yet another way that the company is offering added value to its customers within the Moser universe, while strengthening its interactions and engagement with them.
Both the Genesis timepiece and the associated digital assets will benefit from unrivalled insurance service. Moreover, H. Moser & Cie. recently started accepting direct payment in crypto-currency.
A NETWORK OF SPECIALISTS AT H. MOSER & CIE.'S SIDE
To accompany it in this leap towards decentralised experiences, H. Moser & Cie. surrounded itself with established prestigious partners. Deloitte Consulting Switzerland has mobilized key technological and industry leaders to empower H. Moser & Cie. to reimagine the future of luxury watches.
These partners are Aura Blockchain Consortium, a leader in technological solutions for the luxury goods sector, created by some of the world’s most prestigious luxury groups going beyond traditional frontiers to become a technological hub for the luxury industry; Zurich Switzerland to insure the physical product and digital assets for this brand-new hybrid product; Crossmint for custody of tokens in a wallet accessible for the first time via a dedicated application; and Salesforce, making H. Moser & Cie. one of the first global customers across all industries to benefit from its Web 3.0 management suite.
The expertise of these partners lends credibility to H. Moser & Cie.'s approach and serves as a guarantee. Each partner shared its know-how to ensure the success of this project, in a brand-new combination of different industries and experiences, forming an infinitely valuable support network around the brand.
SOLID GUARANTEES
Following on from Web 1.0 (the Static Web) and Web 2.0 (the Collaborative Web), we have Web 3.0 (the Ownership Web): "I own therefore I am". This major evolution enables users to access digital property without intermediaries. For the exclusive luxury goods sector, it is essential to ensure a reliable long-term approach, by collaborating with the best partners in each field.
Designed to be customer-focused and people-oriented, H. Moser & Cie.'s cutting-edge approach is unique. It will enable H. Moser & Cie. to apply the most popular features among its customers to future models to constantly improve customers' experience, while also enabling them to be part of a passionate community of VIP watch owners. To mark the launch of this project, the brand organised a series of press conferences in its dedicated space in the metaverse – an unprecedented experience.
