the only one Streamliner is the original, limited chronograph:
Firstly because of the movement and function.
Second of all because if I compare the dial of the Streamliner Centre Seconds and the Chrono, I feel the dial of the former too empty without the chequered ring and the “60” at 12.
I don’t like the form of the hands of the Centre Seconds.
And it must be a typo: “ the selling price was well above that expected for a three hand watch... “ The Streamliner Chrono was (is) too expensive comparing to an AP Royal Oak, VC Overseas or Patek Nautilus? I don’t think so, especially if we compare the Agenhorn movement of the Streamliner with the standard movements of the above mentioned watches.. And since when is the Streamliner a simple three hand watch?
Personally, I would choose the Streamliner Chrono in a heartbeat over a Patek Nautilis 5711..
Many thanks for the excellent review, the height of the watch must be really an important issue!
Yours,
Adam

Hands on review of the Moser Streamliner Centre Seconds
By: foversta : February 22nd, 2021-13:29
As we all know, there has been a strong trend in watchmaking for several years now: the versatile sport-chic steel watch with integrated bracelet. There are many reasons for the explosion in demand for this type of watch. I see two main ones. The first re...
Potentially a future design classic ...

Moser managed to design a watch that is instantly recognisable. I think it will age very well. Excellent review FX.
Brilliant!

Many thanks Xavier for your nicely written and elaborate review of the Streamliner Centreseconds 👏 I much enjoyed reading it and agree with your assessment whole heartedly. I had ordered one without seeing it in autumn last year and once I took delivery I...

One advantage Moser enjoys at its size is that it does not need to go after the largest audience with the safe copycat. The Streamliner succeeds as a less familiar design in the fastest growing segment.
Super nice review Xavier!

Your mixing in of what the watch feels like is great. It’s always part of the narrative that we miss sometimes. Still not a fan they should have done more with the movement like they did with the chrono. I’ll see it soon in the metal as my good friend Epi...

I agree, much more value in the Streamliner Chrono over the Nautilus 5711!
Got mine today...

It took 8 months to get it. I agree with the review. In particular, I agree that the crown looks like an after thought (as opposed to those on LF watches). Still, I'm delighted with mine! ...
