IMAGINE THE FREE-SPIRITED capriciousness of artists from the 1970s, the disciplined perfection of watchmakers from the 1800s, and the unencumbered visions of hungry entrepreneurs of today—all bubbling in a heady brew—and you are close to what H. Moser & Cie. has to offer with its new Streamliner watches.
The brand’s marketing statement describes the Streamliner’s look as “a nod to the sleek automotive and locomotive designs of the 1920s”. To our eyes, though, the watch’s strong cushion-shaped case with a stylised integrated bracelet, complemented by minimalistic coloured dials on some models, and ornamental versions on others, harks back to the early luxury sports watch aesthetic of the 1970s.
Although the Streamliner raised eyebrows at first with its unusual appearance, it has now become an unequivocal H. Moser & Cie. icon. For 2024, the brand ups the ante with a trio of new models that offer more of the collection’s throwback allure, elevated with technical mastery and decorative finesse.
A stellar example—and gracing our cover this issue—is the Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton. Clad in a 40mm steel case that sports the collection’s signature silhouette, the case frames a web of carefully hollowed gears and bridges.
