The present watch is the Streamliner Genesis 2, a conceptually daring timepiece that represents the second chapter in H. Moser & Cie.\u2019s ambitious “Genesis” trilogy. While the first chapter explored the digital frontier, Act Two marks a definitive return to the tangible, focusing on the weight, texture, and technical substance of high-end watchmaking. This limited edition is characterized by its “Concept” philosophy\u2014stripping away logos, markers, and distractions to celebrate the pure interplay of light, shadow, and geometry.<\/p>\n
The 40.0 mm stainless steel case retains the celebrated cushion-shaped architecture of the Streamliner collection. Its integrated bracelet, known for its exceptional fluidity and brushed\/polished finishing, wraps comfortably around the wrist, presenting a seamless sculptural form. This metallic solidity is contrasted sharply by the Vantablack\u00ae dial, a material composed of carbon nanotubes that absorbs 99.965% of light. The result is an absolute, void-like black that appears two-dimensional, causing the hands to appear as if they are floating in deep space.<\/p>\n
In a nod to the digital-inspired aesthetic of the trilogy, the hands and the 3D-printed titanium crown feature a distinct pixelated form. This creative tension between 18th-century horological traditions and futuristic digital design codes defines the watch’s identity. The dial focuses solely on the essential, displaying only hours and minutes to offer a quiet, understated reminder of the passage of time.<\/p>\n
Beneath the Vantablack\u00ae void lies the HMC 203 automatic calibre. This manufacture movement is equipped with an integrated winding system that efficiently converts the wearer’s motion into a robust 72-hour power reserve. Built for modern life as much as for the collector’s vault, the Genesis 2 is water-resistant to 12 ATM (120 meters), ensuring that its avant-garde design is backed by genuine utility.<\/p>\n
Representing a rare “insider” piece, the Streamliner Genesis 2 was made available exclusively to owners of the Genesis 1, cementing its status as a cornerstone of one of Moser\u2019s most exclusive contemporary projects. It is a timepiece that proves that in the world of Haute Horlogerie, sometimes the most profound statements are made by what is left out.<\/p>\n

H. Moser & Cie – bio<\/strong><\/p>\n H. Moser & Cie was founded by independent watchmaker Heinrich Moser in St. Petersburg, Russia in 1828. Notable early clients of H. Moser & Cie included Russian princes and members of the Russian Imperial Court; Vladimir Lenin also owned a Moser watch. After Moser died in 1874, the company was sold, and its business in Russia was expropriated in 1918 due to the October Revolution.<\/p>\n In 1953, H. Moser & Cie continued its business in Le Locle, Switzerland where it shifted its focus from pocket watches to wristwatches. Due to the quartz crisis, H. Moser & Cie became a part of the Dixi Mechanique Group and the original brand name was dropped. In 2002, Moser Schaffhausen AG was founded by Dr. J\u00fcrgen Lange together with Heinrich Moser’s great-grandson Roger Nicholas Balsiger, and the brand H. Moser & Cie was formally re-launched in 2005.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
