The watchmaker H. Moser & Cie. unveils the Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic. An exceptional timepiece that combines high technology with minimalist aesthetics, marking a decisive step for the manufacturer: the bold introduction of technical ceramic into its flagship collection.
A unique black ceramic design
With this model, H. Moser & Cie. is writing a new chapter in its history by offering its very first watch sculpted entirely from technical ceramic. The timepiece retains the hallmarks of the Streamliner line with a 40 mm cushion-shaped case, extended by a perfectly fluid integrated bracelet. The finish is remarkable, alternating between polished sides and vertical satin-finished surfaces, a technical challenge with this material.
Despite its sophisticated appearance, the watch does not forget its ergonomic and sporty purpose. It has a controlled thickness of 12.8 mm, guaranteed water resistance up to 12 ATM, and protection provided by sapphire crystal, ready to face everyday life with elegance.
The art of minimalism: Grand Feu enamel dial
The face of this Streamliner embodies the brand's "Concept" philosophy: no logo, no hour markers. Only the material speaks for itself. The dial is made of Grand Feu enamel in an intense, smoky "Red Gold" red. This vibrant hue rests on a textured white gold base, hammered to catch the light.
The creation of this dial is a work of art: two enamel pigments are meticulously applied in a gradient, then set by successive firings. The result offers depth and chromatic saturation that contrast beautifully with the technical coolness of the black case.
Precision mechanics and flying tourbillon
Beneath this refined aesthetic beats the HMC 805 automatic caliber, ticking at 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz). The manufacturer highlights the integration of a double balance spring, designed and manufactured in-house by its sister company, Precision Engineering AG (PEAG). This technical feat significantly improves precision and isochronism by compensating for the effects of gravity on the balance wheel.
Offering a three-day power reserve, the movement reveals its centerpiece at 6 o'clock: a one-minute flying tourbillon. The beating heart of the watch, it adds striking mechanical depth as the only moving element on this minimalist dial.
Positioning and business context
Listed under code 6805-2100, this ceramic version enriches the already popular Streamliner range, alongside models in gold, steel, or rare materials such as jade or Vantablack®. This launch confirms H. Moser's desire to combine traditional watchmaking expertise with contemporary materials.
Estimates vary depending on the market and currency. The price is around CHF 89,000, which could reach approximately €112,400 depending on applicable taxes and exchange rates.
