From Track to Sky to Sea: Three New Dimensions of Time by H. Moser & Cie.

In the world of H. Moser & Cie., time is more than measured - it’s sculpted. This season, the independent manufacture unveils three new expressions of its artistry: the Streamliner Tourbillon Pierre Gasly, born from speed and precision; the Pioneer Flying Hours, inspired by the movement of satellites; and the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon, a study in restrained elegance.

Together, they illustrate Moser’s mastery of contrasts, where performance meets poetry, and engineering becomes emotion.

New Streamliner Tourbillon Pierre Gasly: The Epitome of Elegance

The meeting between Pierre Gasly and H. Moser & Cie. resulted in a watch that reflects his image – almost an extension of his personality – crafted down to the last millimetre by Pierre himself, in close collaboration with the watchmakers at the manufacture. In particular, he insisted on the tourbillon. “I have always been fascinated by this mechanism. There’s something almost hypnotic about its constant balletic motion. Its precision and technical excellence also draw parallels with the world of F1”, he explains.

Pierre was involved at every stage of the creation of the Streamliner Tourbillon Pierre Gasly, from the choice of movement to the colour of the dial. Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie., enthuses: “From the moment we first met, Pierre had a very clear idea of what he wanted. We offered him dozens of alternatives to challenge him, to push him off the beaten track. But each time, true to his instincts, he returned to this piece. His own, as we now present it”.

He wanted the dial to reflect his image - profound, subtle, and slightly mysterious. He named it himself: Chocolate fumé. A rich, nuanced brown that conveys restrained power, precision, and quiet refinement - much like him behind his sunglasses and racing overalls. Typical of Moser’s signature treatments, the fumé dial bears a transparent lacquer logo, creating a refined, almost indulgent canvas that contrasts beautifully with the sleek 5N red gold Streamliner case. This balance of warmth and precision mirrors Pierre’s own poise: the driver’s focus, with an unmistakable presence.

At the heart of the watch, a one-minute flying tourbillon sets a serene rhythm at six o’clock. Powered by the automatic HMC 805 calibre, it features a double hairspring crafted in-house by Precision Engineering AG. This twin design compensates for gravitational shifts, enhancing precision and isochronism - a testament to Moser’s continual pursuit of perfection.

Two variants were created from this remarkable collaboration. The first, limited to 100 pieces, features a chocolate rubber strap that highlights its sport-chic character. The second, limited to just ten - Pierre’s racing number - includes a discreet red ruby at ten o’clock, an intimate tribute only the observant will notice. This exclusive version is paired with an integrated 5N red gold bracelet, flowing seamlessly from the case in a continuous, organic line.

The Streamliner Tourbillon Pierre Gasly was launched on October 1^st this year. The final creation is precise, personal, uncompromising. Enquire with us to learn more about this timepiece.

Pioneer Flying Hours: The First Satellite Flying Hours Piece from H. Moser & Cie. 

Released in 2015, the Pioneer collection embodies H. Moser & Cie.’s vision of the everyday watch: elegant yet robust, refined yet bold. Water-resistant to 12 ATM, it’s built for both adventure and reflection. Today, the Pioneer Flying Hours introduces a dynamic new dial inspired by satellite systems that shaped modern independent watchmaking. Evolving from the 2018 original, this version features an instant hour jump - a more direct, intuitive take on the wandering hours complication.

The Pioneer Flying Hours is available in two models, housed in a 42.8 mm case. The first, in 5N red gold with black DLC titanium inserts, features an aventurine dial which evokes a deep and mysterious constellated sky. It is limited to 100 pieces, as rare as they are spectacular.

The second, in steel, is the very essence of purity with a White fumé dial and a subtle industrial aesthetic. This piece is not limited, but is no less extraordinary. On the dials of these two models, stripped of any logo and indices, several satellites rotate: In the centre, the main disc, which has been completely skeletonised, displays the minutes over an arc of 120°; three smaller discs are arranged around this disc, hidden under the dial, turning around their own axes and revealing the hour numerals in turn in a window on the dial.

Beating at the heart of the Pioneer Flying Hours is the HMC 240 automatic calibre. Equipped with a bi-directional winding system, it provides a minimum power reserve of three days. It is powered by an oscillating weight made from solid red gold for the 5N red gold model, and from tungsten for the steel model. The escapement and hairspring have been manufactured in-house. The bridges and plates, featuring an anthracite finish, underscore the high-tech restraint of the piece.

With the Pioneer Flying Hours, H. Moser & Cie. is making the hours dance. The piece hosts a hypnotic ballet that captivates the eye. Enquire with us to learn more about these timepieces. 

Aventurine Dial Retail Price: $72,150 AUD. White Fumé Retail Price: $53,650 AUD.

Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon: Watchmaking At Its Most Delectable

Its name intrigues. Its colour enchants. Its movement reassures. With the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon, H. Moser & Cie. truly elevates the essentials. Precise proportions, harmony of form, depth of colours: the Endeavour collection captures the very essence of H. Moser & Cie. expertise. Its streamlined design, with no unnecessary embellishments, subtly reveals the brand’s signature neoclassical aesthetic.

In 2023, H. Moser & Cie. brought a touch of irreverence to its boldest line with the Streamliner Centre Seconds Smoked Salmon. The daring hue quickly became iconic. Now, the Smoked Salmon dial returns in a refined, understated model, featuring a vertical griffé finish and Moser’s signature fumé effect that shifts from soft copper to warm brown. A nod to vintage elegance, its sophisticated yet unexpected tone continues to captivate discerning collectors.

Combining three H. Moser & Cie. icons - the Smoked Salmon dial, Endeavour case, and Perpetual Calendar - this model embodies refined innovation. Powered by the HMC 800 calibre, one of the most intuitive movements on the market, it balances complexity with simplicity. True to Moser’s minimalist spirit, the transparent lacquer logo serves as a discreet signature. A central hand marks the months, a large date window with “Flash Calendar” function ensures instant change at midnight, and a power reserve indicator shows seven days of autonomy, all easily adjusted via the crown, at any time, without risk.

With a 42-mm white gold case, paired with a dark brown alligator leather strap, the Endeavour Perpetual Calendar Smoked Salmon exudes a measured presence, classic yet never conventional. It combines tradition with freedom, eschewing flashy touches, yet making no concessions. Enquire with us to learn more about this timepiece.

Retail Price: $99,900 AUD.
