Timeout shares their struggle with self-restraint after H. Moser & Cie. released a new Streamliner model, which they describe as a "Goldilocks piece." The post highlights the watch's 40mm ceramic case and vibrant red dial, prompting a community discussion on its appeal and the allure of full ceramic bracelets.

H. Moser & Cie has built its modern reputation on provocative dial treatments and technical excellence, with the Endeavour collection serving as the brand's primary vehicle for haute horlogerie complications. The Swiss manufacture, revived in the early 2000s, deliberately positions itself as an anti-establishment voice in luxury watchmaking, often eschewing traditional Swiss imagery while maintaining rigorous production standards in Schaffhausen.
This Endeavour Tourbillon exemplifies the brand's signature design language through its fumé dial treatment in deep red gradation and the open tourbillon aperture at 3 o'clock. The case construction appears to utilize the brand's characteristic flowing lugs and integrated crown guards, while the leaf-style hands maintain legibility against the dramatic dial surface. The visible tourbillon mechanism showcases Moser's in-house movement capabilities, representing the brand's commitment to vertical integration.
H. Moser & Cie occupies a unique position in the contemporary independent watchmaking landscape, with limited annual production ensuring exclusivity while maintaining broader recognition than micro-brands. The Endeavour Tourbillon models typically command significant premiums over time-only pieces, reflecting both the complication's technical merit and the brand's growing collector following. The dramatic fumé dials have become particularly sought-after, establishing Moser as a legitimate alternative to traditional haute horlogerie houses.
It’s such a beautiful combination of case material and dial color, finish and texture.
The tourbillon does put it out of reach, thankfully😅
and even better on someone (else's) wrist. Cazalea
too. Really a great combination. The ceramic is actually not black but an anthracite gray color. The red dial looks to be a vibrant color. I’ve not seen their other blue ceramic dial but I do know it’s a very popular watch.
