H. Moser & Cie.’s Streamliner Collection: The Art Of Minimalism

Discover the finest H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner watches available today The Streamliner Collection by H. Moser & Cie. In All Its Glory Since its launch in 2020, H. Moser & Cie.'s Streamliner collection has showcased the brand's mechanical prowess and minimalist designs, which have now become icons Founded in 1828 by Heinrich Moser in Neuhausen am Rheinfall, located in Switzerland, H. Moser & Cie. has a rich history of horological innovation. The watchmaker has developed sixteen in-house calibres and remains independent, while creating exceptional timepieces with the most exquisite dials and beautiful movement finishing. H. Moser & Cie. is known for doing minimalism like few others can, perhaps even better known for not taking it too seriously and having a witty outlook on the watch industry, which certainly does not come in the way of its sheer watchmaking prowess. With a completely integrated manufacture, H. Moser & Cie. is able to ensure that every hand-made watch corresponds to the values of the brand. From designing and producing in-house mechanical movements to the intricate reshaping and hardening of each individual hairspring, H. Moser & Cie. ensures that each timepiece is exemplary. The Streamliner collection: a brief history Development for the collection began five years before the first Streamliner was released in 2020. The idea was simple—to design a steel sport watch collection with an integrated bracelet. Instead of redesigning an existing Moser watch, the brand started with a blank canvas and one goal—the watch had to be smooth and fluid. To achieve this, H. Moser worked backwards, starting with the bracelet. Inspiration came from streamliner locomotive trains from the 1920s and 30s, particularly the 1936 Mercury streamliner with curves that enhanced the aerodynamics and speed of the train. The smooth curves of the fluid Streamliner bracelet reflect this inspiration with a brushed finish along the surface of the single, wave-patterned links and contrasting smooth polished edges at the joints. These curves integrate into the 42.3mm cushion-shaped case, with a matching brushed effect alternating with polished surfaces. A recessed, satin-finished case middle highlights the fluidity of the case and bracelet, interrupted only by the crown at four o’clock and chronograph pushers at two and 10 o’clock. The domed sapphire crystal glass that sits atop the dial flows just as smoothly from the case, while its bevelled edges highlight the views of the watch face at an angle. The Streamliner collection showcases the brand's mechanical prowess and minimalist designs, which have now become trademarks. The collection features all sorts of complications—a tourbillon, a flyback chronograph, and a perpetual calendar, to name a few—displayed on beautiful, minimalistic fumé dials and an easily-identifiable cushion-shaped case that flows into an integrated stainless steel bracelet with individual links that embrace the wrist. Boasting a water resistance of 120m, the Streamliner is as versatile and ergonomic as it is aesthetic. The collection has won awards for its innovative mechanics, including the "Chronograph Watch Prize" at the 2020 GPHG for the Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Automatic. Notably, it introduced the world's first rotor positioned between the dial and movement. H. Moser & Cie. has been known to break new ground and disrupt the watch industry. The brand achieved exactly that with the vintage-styled Streamliner, which received a lot of attention. Here are the finest H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner watches available today.

On the flange is a tachymeter scale, while a ‘racing’ minute track with red and white markings around the periphery frames the gradient dial of the Streamliner Flyback Chronograph. The outer markings are used to measure the chronograph seconds while the inner track is for minutes. Two central chronograph hands—in red for seconds and rhodium-plated for minutes—perform the advanced flyback chronograph feature, which allows you to stop and restart the stopwatch without having to reset. Timekeeping hands look distinct for their thicker, rounded finish and Globolight inserts. With barely any distractions on the dial, the Streamliner Flyback Chronograph is a minimalistic approach to displaying the complications. Powering the watch is the HMC 907 calibre, with about 434 components that integrate both chronograph and timekeeping functions. The calibre is displayed through the exhibition caseback of the timepiece, without the obstruction of the rotor that automatically winds the watch as the wearer’s wrist moves. The movement beats at a frequency of 21,600vph and offers a power reserve of 54 hours.

The Streamliner Perpetual Calendar is a minimalistic and clever take on what would otherwise be a complex display of date, month, leap year indication, and a power reserve indicator, besides standard timekeeping hours, minutes, and seconds functions. It was not a new complication for the brand, as the minimalistic perpetual calendar had been around since 2005, but now this complex complication comes in a new display on a fresh canvas. The now distinctive cushion-shaped case—measuring 42.3mm, water resistant to 120m, and with an integrated steel bracelet—houses a new calibre, the manual winding HMC 812. The calibre offers a minimum power reserve of 168 hours, which is displayed on an indicator at 10 o’clock on the dial. Visible through the open caseback, components of the movement, such as the bridges and plates, feature an anthracite PVD finish, which is a departure from the brand’s usual decoration for movements. This treatment contrasts with and highlights gold elements of the calibre, such as the escapement wheel, pallet fork, and screwed gold mounts. Also visible on the caseback is the leap year indicator, clear enough when one looks for it but not as jarring as it would be on the minimal dial. The coloured fumé dial includes a date window at four o’clock, and a small red and white centrally mounted hand that points to the month of the year, which coincides with the hour indexes on the dial. However, it is the date window with a ‘flash calendar’ system that is rather interesting. Via two superimposed discs, one that operates from one to 15, and the other from 16 to 31, the date changes in a flash at midnight, unlike most other perpetual calendar watches, where the date changes gradually. Even on February 28, or 29, or on months with 30 days, the second disc stops at 28, 29 or 30, letting the first come into play to change the date. Essentially, this means that accuracy aside, a manual date change will likely not be required. Other elements on this Streamliner Perpetual Calendar exhibit a constant with the aesthetics of two previous Streamliners. The three-dimensional rounded hands with Globolight inserts and the ‘racing’ minute track in red and white remain. What stands out on this dial, though, is Moser’s secret signature. This was the first time the brand did away with visible branding on the Streamliner’s dial and chose a transparent lacquered signature, making it visible only when light reflected off it at certain angles. A silent nod to the wearer, this secret signature is now here to stay, just like this fascinating and minimalistic take on an otherwise information-heavy watch.

Moser & Cie. introduced the Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton Alpine Limited Edition in collaboration with Alpine Motorsports. This timepiece symbolises the fusion of the two brands, with a design tailored to the tastes of Alpine's F1 drivers and endurance racing team. It boasts fine engineering, bold character, a touch of colour, and a durable rubber strap for comfort and endurance. The fully skeletonized design removes all unnecessary elements, showcasing the movement from every angle. The watch emphasises precision and engineering, with a one-minute flying tourbillon and cylindrical hairspring at 6 o’clock. Originating from the 18th century, the cylindrical hairspring, once common in marine chronometers, offers concentric development, reduced friction, and improved accuracy, particularly when paired with a tourbillon. Crafted by hand, each cylindrical hairspring takes ten times longer to produce than a standard one. At 12 o’clock, a small, translucent domed dial in the signature blue of H. Moser & Cie. and Alpine Motorsports mirrors the curve of the sapphire crystal. Made from synthetic spinel, it adds intensity and value to the watch. The minima list n with no visible logo, features only a discreet engraving on the reverse side. Super-Luminova® indices and Globolight® inserts on the hands ensureilit even at night. The blue rubber strap mimics the texture of the textile while providing comfort and sophistication. Powered by the automatic calibre HMC 811, the skeletonized movement features a large open-worked gold rotor and a graceful flying tourbillon beneath the sapphire crystal. With a water resistance of up to 120m, this limited-edition series of 100 pieces is sleek, powerful, and suitable for sporty and formal occasions.

Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Vantablack in a case made from 5N red gold, which has a definitive coppery-pink hue. While the material used in this new timepiece is different, the 40mm cushion-shaped case of the Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Vantablack, its integrated single wave-patterned link bracelet, and domed sapphire crystal glass over the dial feature the familiar finishes of previous Streamliner watches. Moreover, paired with a deep Vantablack dial, the red gold stands out brilliantly, the gilt and the dark complementing each other as little else can. Interestingly, despite the change in material, the water resistance rating of the timepiece remains 120 metres. On this timepiece, the Vantablack dial stands out for how deep the dark is. Named for Vertically Aligned Nano Tube Array (VANTA) Black, Vantablack is a coating that absorbs over 99.96 percent of light and is regarded as the world’s ‘darkest black’. Its application has primarily been in astrophysics and military industries, but not as much in horology—it was first used by the brand in 2018. This Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Vantablack stands out for its gorgeous minimalism. On the dial devoid of even a lacquered logo, red gold indexes that match the case have been applied from the back, so that if the watch is angled, the Vantablack absorbs even the light reflected off these gilded markers. Floating at six o’clock on the dial of the watch is a one-minute tourbillon. Behind the Vantablack dial but visible through the caseback of the Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Vantablack timepiece is the HMC 804 automatic calibre. A pair of matched hairsprings designed and produced by the brand’s sister company, Precision Engineering AG, ensure that the movement of the point of gravity on each spring when it expands is corrected, also reducing friction and significantly improving accuracy.

Housed within Moser's resilient Streamliner case, this timepiece embraces minimalist design through the brand's Concept aesthetics, featuring a Grand Feu enamel dial without a logo, indices, or inscriptions. Thiagn allows the intricate mechanics of the hammers and tourbillon to take centre stage, as the chimes sound out the time on demand. This new model highlightion of MB&F’s large suspended balance wheel with Moser’s exposed repeater mechanism. Integrating the movement into the streamlined case, while revealing the complications on the dial, posed significant technical challenges. To optimise and amplify the chiming, the case middle had to be expanded to incorporate the movement and act as a soundbox for the repeater's hours, quarters, and minutes chime. The gongs arranged on a single level and curved around the flying tourbillon, add an artistic flair to the 1970s-inspired helmet-shaped case. The mirror-polished hammers, located in the upper left quadrant, strike the gongs, while the flying tourbillon rotates gracefully in a 6 o'clock aperture. The cushion-shaped stainless steel case, measuring 42.3mm in diameter and 14.4mm thick, flows seamlessly into the integrated bracelet, maintaining the aerodynamic design typical of the Streamliner family. The case features a vertical, satin-brushed finish with polishd is water resistant to 50 meters. Inside, the manually wound calibre HMC 905 is visible through the caseback, displaying hand-finishing with contemporaryhracte bridges, signature Moser double stripes, and partial skeletonisation. Operating at a frequency of 21,600vph, the movement offers a generous 90-hour power reserve.

Only now, the 40mm case in 5N red gold features a bezel of 60 baguette-cut sapphires (measuring 290 carats) arranged in a rainbow-hued frame for the curved sapphire crystal glass over the Vantablack dial. This Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Rainbow is powered by the HMC 804 calibre, which offers a power reserve of 72 hours.

On the dial side of this gorgeous timepiece, you’d see the fantastic texture on the fumé blue dial in enamel. This mesmerising face is achieved through the grand feu enamelling process, carried out on a plate of hammered gold, which creates the texture to begin with. The final colour is achieved by using pigments in three different shades that are washed, crushed, and oxidised, fired 12 times, resulting in the ombré effect. Steel, applied indexes complement the central hands, which have inserts of Globolight—a ceramic-based substance infused with Super-LumiNova. Last, but not least, the third hand we see is that for the small seconds on a sub-dial at six o’clock, with a snailed finish, in contrast against the rest of the hammered, enamelled dial. All the while, this Streamliner retains the comfort achieved by the integration of the cushion-shaped case and the slinky bracelet, and at 39mm—a very agreeable size. At 39mm, the case of the H. Moser Streamliner Small Seconds Blue Enamel is small, but so is the oscillating mass or the winding rotor of the new calibre HMC 500, which happens to be Moser’s smallest movement yet. Seen through the sapphire crystal caseback, the rotor makes a big statement, as it clears up space for a better view of the other components. It is made from platinum—a heavier precious metal that helps in generating a massive power reserve of three whole days. Running at a frequency of 21,600vph and boasting a power reserve of 74 hours, this movement also has the brand’s signature bidirectional pawl-winding system, which previous calibres of it have also featured.

Moser & Cie. Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton showcases minimalist design and symmetry at its finest. The fully skeletonised timepiece reveals the breathtaking beauty of its mechanism. At its heart, a one-minute flying tourbillon with a double hairspring appears to float weightlessly. Encased in a 40mm Streamliner case, this watch is a striking statement of innovation and refined elegance. Every detail has been meticulously crafted for transparency and depth, allowing a clear view of the movement. The skeletonised barrel offers a glimpse of the mainspring, while the open-worked rotor enhances visibility. Finished with modern minimalist touches, the anthracite main plate and bridges feature refined strokes and precise beveling. Water resistant to 120 meters, the watch's ergonomic design is achieved through an integrated steel bracelet that connects seamlessly to the case. Alternating polished and brushed surfaces, along with a domed sapphire crystal, contribute to its sleek appearance. The three-dimensional hands with Globolight® inserts highlight gold-plated indices. At six o'clock, the floating tourbillon drives this extraordinary piece. Powered by the in-house HMC 814 automatic skeleton movement, the double hairspring minimizes friction and enhances accuracy, making this watch a technical marvel.

The Streamliner Centre Seconds Matrix Green timepiece, nicknamed the ‘Green Dragon’ was a runaway success. “The Centre Seconds was made to have an entry-level watch in the collection,” Meylan said, CEO of H. Moser & Cie. This year, the brand released an updated Streamliner Centre Seconds Matrix Green timepiece, along with the Purple Haze. Sized at 40mm, the cushion-shaped steel cases are water resistant to 120m. Alternating brushed and polished surfaces and a recessed, satin-finished case middle decorate the case, with a curved, integrated steel bracelet flowing seamlessly from the case, elegantly and ergonomically hugging the wrist. The fumé dial of the Matrix Green timepiece offers a stunning pallete encompassing shades of bright electric green with flecks of yellow, olive, and a deep forest hue that darkens to almost black around the periphery, where the ‘racing’ minute track frames the dial. For the Purple Haze timepiece in rich shades of deep pink, blue, and royal purple transition to a beautiful dark hue that’s not quite black. With only a ‘secret’ signature in lacquer and neat white indexes, these new sunray-brushed shaded dials take centre stage on the watch, reflecting light differently at different angles. Structured timekeeping hands feature Globolight inserts for enhanced legibility in the dark. These beautiful new timepieces in purple and green are powered by the new automatic HMC 201 calibre, visible through the sapphire crystal window on the caseback. A bi-directional pawl winding system with a skeletonised oscillating weight made from 18-karat gold offers a detailed view of the components within. Even bridges have been skeletonised to enhance optics of the highly decorated calibre that powers this timepiece with a hacking seconds mechanism.

The natural, green mineral, obtained from Wyoming, USA, has been untreated to preserve its raw character. Against a 40mm case and integrated bracelet in 5N red gold, the warm, olive hue of the jade dial stands out. Each watch is unique, as natural markings and colouration of the stone are inimitable. The raw stone is cut precisely using CNC technology in a liquid environment so as to obtain a thickness of 1 to 1.2mm. After careful inspection, this stone is cut into dials before being glued to metal plates so that precise shapes can be obtained via CNC technology again, and then refined further to the desired thickness. Naturally, this process requires extreme precision. The dials are hand polished to display the stone’s natural brilliance. A thin layer of varnish is applied to the reverse of the dial before it is attached to a brass plate. This is done to preserve the mineral’s aesthetic integrity by disallowing the brass to shine through what is now an extremely fine, translucent stone surface. The Moser Streamliner Tourbillon Wyoming Jade timepiece is only available in a limited edition of 100 pieces.
