No, I wondered the same thing.
When I inquired, Moser replied with the following:
8 day wheel—this is a special
set of wheels and pinions that make up a part of the train. Although
it is referred to as “8 day wheel” it has nothing to do with an
“8 day feature”

Moser Mayu - Stunningly Simple!
I've had my eye on this one for a while and had the opportunity to purchase this black dialed version back in March. I decided to have it serviced under warranty in NYC and as part of the service had the watch "upgraded with a new dial, hands, escapement ...
Mark, looks great. Coincidentally, mine came back last week as well.
I haven't had a chance to take pics yet, but I'll try to do so soon and post them here. Best, CaliforniaJed
Same watch, silver dial, with the new upgrades.
I'm pretty pleased with the upgraded dial and hands. The differences are subtle, but the combination of the "sharper" twelve and the slightly more sculpted hands combine to make an already elegant watch just slightly more refined. Best, CaliforniaJed...
Great Pics
I debated getting my dial replaced with the silver one but chickened out at the last minute! I may have to get a second Mayu now that I have seen your pictures!
I like your strap Jed!
I have the white gold Mayu with white lacquer dial - I think you have this one too? Mine is a very early one and looks a little primitive compared to the new ones I've seen - they've definately upped their game! I love mine though - nearly three years old...
Wow Jed, the White Dial looks really Classic!
and timeless! What a difference there! Superb my friend! Mech.
Great watch and pics
I keep my fingers crossed and my Moser should be here soon. Congrats on yours!
8 Day wheel ?
Do you mean an upgarde to a barrel capable of 8 days power reserve ? Thanks for sharing.
No, it's part of the train.
A representative from Moser explained that it is a set of wheels and pinions that make up a part of the train but are not related to an 8-day power reserve. There was apparently a friction concern with the original. Best, CaliforniaJed
Congratulations Mark, I saw this line in Las Vegas
and they blew me away. I had to be brief as I was with my 3 year old, but WOW. Some of the most sublime and truly luxurious watches I have ever seen... Keep that one!
Beautifully done!
Wonderful piece, ... a very very elegant and quietly thoughtful watch. Thanks for sharing!! S
Great photos, Mark!
CaliforniaJed and I were just talking about these changes on his Mayu, which just returned from servicing. I like the new, flatter "12" a lot. The Mayu is a ridiculously attractive piece. I just love it! The palladium/fume version is my favorite. Enjoy yo...
Moser Mayu Upgrade
Is it mandatory for the "upgrade" if once you send back the watch to the manufacturer? I am also curious about the 8 days wheel change. Is this watch capable of 8 days power reserve after the "upgrade"?
No, I wondered the same thing.

Mayu is my fav as well!
Hi Mark! Mayu is my favorite today as well as Chopard Quattro. I am not sure the difference of the hands and dial - how did you find out the new version is different? Just curious. I am happy with how it is now (enamel dial), but I might look into the pos...
Hi Ken
Hope all is well and you are enjoying all your watches! Your Mayu is stunning. However, it looks like you already have the newer hands as evidenced by the more slender hour hand and the seconds hand. You must have purchased it recently after Moser made th...
Congratulations Mark!
Congratulations upon being reunited with your Moser Mayu. The new dial and hands look great!
What a piece Mark! and congrats!
The RG+Dark Dial combo is striking and stunning amidst the simple elegance, that's what a Moser stand for! enjoy wearing it and more pix are welcome please Mech.
