For the first time in its history, H. Moser & Cie. has worked in ceramic, choosing it for the flowing lines of its Streamliner collection.
The Schaffhausen-based manufacture today introduces the Streamliner Tourbillon Concept Ceramic. Its cushion case and integrated bracelet are made entirely from anthracite grey ceramic.
Vertical satin finishing on the bracelet, polished edges and circular satin finishing on the case are all applied by hand. The brand describes ceramic as unalterable, lightweight and hypoallergenic, and almost warm to the touch. Against the grey sits a Red fumé Grand Feu enamel dial, engraved on a white gold base for a hammered effect, with neither indices nor logo.
A one-minute flying tourbillon turns at 6 o’clock. The automatic HMC 805 calibre carries a double hairspring designed and produced by sister company Precision Engineering AG, which improves accuracy and isochronism. Its anthracite bridges meet an 18-carat red gold oscillating weight.
It is H. Moser & Cie.’s first watch in ceramic, and the brand chose Streamliner to carry it first.
