Moser Monard Palladium casing with Straumann double hair spring
Hi
Am interested in Moser. Thanks for sharing.
Have you seen much difference between your generation of Moser and the post Meylan models? Apart from renaming some legacy models have there been any changes in overall construction, finish? Not sure if you have basis for comparison but would be interested in your views if any. Thanks.

Hi !
The major difference is the use of Straumann Double hairspring . The older versions had the double hair spring which meant complex servicing procedure , higher maintenance and higher costs of watches. Off course having the module would mean that the time keeping would be accurate and that was one of the reasons I chose this indie brand . The use of palladium metal was also a novelty and is very very scarce in newer models . I bought the watch due to the technical part of the movement for which Mr Moser was famous for & with advent of newer models and variations without the Straumann double hairspring means bit of legacy is lost.
However good news is that fume dial variations have increased and retail price of the pieces have dropped significantly due to less complex movement . They use SDHS hairspring in their complications range only now . With the Meylan family in control brand is appealing to younger consumers and watches have caught up with trend and in fact have created an identity in the horological world .
Lastly in my personal opinion you can get older pieces brand new at huge price reductions and it would be good to get those as very few were produced and would appreciate in the longer run. Rest the case making technique and dials and etc remain the same ...
Hope this explanation is sufficient .
