Introducing The H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner Perpetual Calendar Concept Smoked Salmon
The new Streamliner Perpetual Calendar Concept Smoked Salmon is the latest creation presented by H. Moser & Cie and if until now we thought we had already seen everything in terms of minimalism from the brand, the new arrival contradicts that thesis.
The Streamliner is a model that has been present in the collection since 2020, embracing different complications, with simple models with a time function, but also small-seconds, flyback chronographs, tourbillons and perpetual calendars that are now reinforced with this new addition.
The main highlight of the watch is the beautiful ‘Smoked Salmon’ dial that features the same gradient effect that we can find on many other watches in its collection, which features a chocolate brown tone in the center that darkens as it expands outwards, becoming almost black near the edges. At first glance we may be tempted to say that we are looking at a watch with simple time and date functions, and that is the beauty of this concept, as the watch can house a perpetual calendar without having to enter any track or indices, supported by two additional hands on the dial and another on the movement.
Many will be wondering at this point whether or not they will be able to easily read the perpetual calendar in the face of such minimalism, it will certainly not be an easy task but we also do not believe that this is the main motivation for those who want to own it.
The watch once again wears the traditional cushion-shaped steel case measuring 42.30mm in diameter and 11mm thick, which does not include the domed sapphire crystal, and which comes with an integrated bracelet, with a mainly brushed finish, screw-in crown at 4 o ‘clock with the brand’s signature, see-through case back and 120m waterproof.
The ‘smoked salmon’ dial comes with a vertical brushed finish and fumé effect that we already talked about, featuring syringe hour and minute hands filled with Globolight, a central seconds hand, a date window next to the crown with a black background and equipped with the instantaneous date-change movement, a hand at 10 o’clock with power reserve indicator and a tiny central red and white hand that indicates the months, while the leap year is hide on the movement. And as usual, everything was said about the dial, where there is no space for inscriptions including the brand logo.
At its heart operates the HMC 341 manual movement, which reaches 18,000 Vph and offers an impressive seven days of power reserve thanks to its double barrels. Which can be seen through the open back case highlighted by the dark grey PVD-coated bridges.
It is a special edition which means it is limited in time, lasts 12 months and comes with a price of CHF 49,900.
