Moser use to be fun with their news
but I don't know what to say about this creation. Not my cup of tea, I'm most confused.

Here are a couple pictures of the Moser Frankenstein Homage Watch to authentic watchmaking
I don't know if I agree with Moser making this watch. Feels like an insult to the brands IMO. Btw, this Moser Frankenstein Homage Watch to authentic watchmaking is a unique piece in a 43mm stainless steel case. Proceeds from the sale will be donated to th...
I think that was the intention! :-)
Moser is quite direct in its comments. Some may say it is good and others not but I have to confess that it is done with humour and with quite a bit of truth!
For me, it's more negative than good. I feel it's a tad too overboard and crosses the line too much.
That's just how I feel. I'm sure others feel the opposite.
I believe the idea was to cross the line or else
the message and the impact of the video would be minimal. If it was done without the humour, I would probably have said it was possibly in bad taste and disrespectful to the other brands. a Controversial video nevertheless.
It's a piece unique, not for normal sell, hence they are allowed to just make jokes and tease others,
as loud as they can! I see no problem!
Hilarious! Great to see some aggression in the jungle from Moser. Well done.
They should roar more often. Here is another one: www.h-moser.com
There is so, so much going on here
1. Moser & Cie flying tourbillon movement (okay, great) 2. ...with a pseudo- GP golden bridge on top that is only aesthetically there, not supporting the actual tourbillon. Thats hilarious 3. An AP RO octangonal bezel. Okay 4 ...with a Rolex pepsi bezel i...
LOL
Hideously appealing . I find it funny and kinda like it. Almost everything we ever wanted in a single watch, what else? Thanks for sharing. Vte
This is exactly why i don't like Moser
They're always shouting: ' Look at me!' and seem to find the most distasteful way possible to do it. I don't understand, their watches ( the normal ones ) are so nice, elegant and simple, it's like their head of PR has wild outbursts of schizofrenia or so...
Wasnt that exactly what made JCB successful?
Didnt he go with with his brand to Basel watch fair to have not a single piece in their booth?
Man that was hilarious :)))
Ironically Moser is the marketing anti-marketer. A daring and clever game. My only critique of the video is the depiction of The Influencer we all know as Aminico would never sell out and probably has better dance moves too. Thanks for sharing. Best,
It's their comedy watch... Like last year's Swiss Cheese watch...
They're poking fun at the industry.
I don't know if it's a good marketing strategy for Moser to make such a watch and laughs at its competitors. I prefer when a brand keeps a low profil and makes great watches (which is the case of Moser).
Maybe they should better manage their distribution network instead and maintain their prices on the grey and secondary markets. That would be better for collectors who have bought one of their watches rather than playing the wise guy in my opinion. Best w...
Do you think the laugh at their competitors?
I assume the contrary: Collecting design features that by themselves are immediately recognized by the whole world of horology actually is paying tribute to them. Honestly, Moser has placed none of such features in the books of horology, and they ayre awa...
Because it says much more than just the watch itself
Just wondered if your words were before or after the vid, which changed my perception of the watch and its story dramatically.
Very funny from a company that sell a 1:1 clone of the Apple Watch...
probably this one is also a note to self ? Really, why wasting watchmakin talent like this? Sincerely, Magnus
Personally I love the advert! It says exactly what a lot of us sincerely believe is wrong with the industry
Regarding the watch, it is a tongue in cheek hommage, I'm not offended at all by it. But I am glad that they are getting straight to the point regarding all of the marketing bs that has crept into our hobby. I, for one, 100% agree with what they are sayin...
I think its brilliant 😉
This watch is the reason why i love the independent brands so much 🤗 But i can understand that not everybody agrees with me . But i dont think its a huge middle finger to the industry . Just to let them know to not rely on the past with there designs but ...
I think this is brilliant.
Since I saw it announced, I can't stop laughing. I want one badly.
Me, too.
I hear all critics but it is important to be able to smile, even about yourself. But please, cam someone tell Moser that they forgot to mount the GMT hand?! 🤣
Still can...
Turning the bezel to the correct relative position to your timezone will reveal the GMT
Very funny stunt 👏😜
But I am getting less convinced each time Mr. Meylan comes up with these jokes at his bigger competitors. Now, I am a fan of Moser because I like the smaller guys in the industry who have imagination and a sense of humor and keep prices reasonable. Yet Mo...
I understand your feel. "Love well,whip well."
As for the technical points your mentioned about Moser, from what I know: 1. Right. They don't have a world time. 2. They do have a dual time. 3. There is a plan of developing an in-house chronograph, according to a previous interview of Mr. Edouard Meyla...
Thanks for the correction Luis!
I did not realize they had a dual time and flying tourby already. I am a fan of the SS Pioneer because it looks perfect without a date window and if they make add a SS version with chronograph, then it would jump high on my list.
Well put. Technically, there was little innovation recently there...
When you make such a statement better be sure I can’t backfire... Magnus
Did you notice the video is removed from various platforms...
... strange. Either H Moser &Cie did no longer feel comfortable with it or other parts of the industry show a limited sense of humor 😗 Cheers Henrik
This probably means they probably got a lot of criticism, whether from the brands or watch collectors, for this shenanigan.
It's alright to make a joke at your competitors; but as I stated in my post above, their video and watch is a big slap in the face to the industry if you ask me. And one that crossed the line with no turning back. - AT
But they do have a very valid point. Let’s be honest.
And maybe it is difficult to be honest because we as (sheep) customers often fall for exactly those marketing ‘traps’ HMC is pointing out. I am no stranger to that myself. LE on LE on LE on LE. When most icons were developed there were no LE’s. Where is t...
difficult to evaluate....
I loved more the iwatch tribute (which I own!) because it was original and cool. Here is just one piece for charity like the cheese one but mostly a mockery. So yes some of the points in their funny video are true (especially the artist for Tag Heur..neve...
