H. Moser & Cie is not your typical Swiss watch brand. In a world where big houses bet on recognition, Moser is that independent rebel who prefers to leave things unsaid. Their watches are often without logos, without excessive ornamentation and without unnecessary ballast – but still immediately recognizable. And this is exactly the philosophy they have implemented in the Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton Boutique Edition, a timepiece that is uncompromisingly minimalist on the one hand, and technically perfect down to the last detail on the other.
Inspiration for the collection Streamliner Tourbillon It derives from the design of aerodynamic trains from the 20th century, which explains the soft, rounded lines and 40mm diameter. “cushion” (cushioned) case. But although the design is retro, the materials and technology are completely modern.
The entire clock is made of 18K yellow gold, which includes not only the case but also an integrated bracelet. This is an important detail, as most luxury skeleton models offer a leather or rubber strap, while Moser further emphasizes prestige with this choice.

The focus of this watch is not just its golden shine, but automatic movement HMC 814, which is fully skeletonized. This means that all the key parts – from the springs to the gears – are open and exposed to view.
The most fascinating element is minute flying tourbillon at 6 o'clock, which seems to float above the mechanism. The tourbillon itself is a rarity in modern watches, especially in such a minimalist form. H. Moser & Cie went even further and used Straumann® Double Hair Spring, which improves accuracy and reduces sensitivity to gravitational influences.
Another technical highlight is golden rotor, which winds the mechanism using the kinetic energy of the wrist movement. This means that the watch does not require manual winding, while still maintaining an extremely slim and elegant design.
