Introducing the H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton: A Tribute to Speed and Charity
A fusion of haute horlogerie and motorsport fervor, H. Moser & Cie. recently unveiled the second iteration of its Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton, this time drenched in a vibrant pink hue, perfectly timed to coincide with the adrenaline rush of the 2024 Miami Grand Prix. This limited edition timepiece pays homage to the iconic livery of the BWT Alpine F1 Team, H. Moser & Cie.’s esteemed partner, renowned for its prowess on the racetrack and its commitment to excellence.
In a departure from the original blue-themed model, the Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton Alpine Limited Edition Pink Livery exudes a striking pink palette, reminiscent of the secondary livery adorning the sleek single-seater raced by the BWT Alpine F1 Team. Limited to just 20 meticulously crafted pieces, this exclusive edition is available solely through H. Moser & Cie.’s online platform, making it a coveted treasure for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
The design narrative of this timepiece is intertwined with the pulsating energy of Formula 1, mirroring the dynamic evolution of the BWT Alpine F1 Team’s A524 race car. Inspired by the visionary artworks of contemporary artist Felipe Pantone, both liveries of the A524 boast a captivating blend of Alpine’s iconic blue tones and BWT’s signature pink accents. This symbiotic relationship between speed and style is encapsulated in the Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton, which proudly dons the distinctive colors of both liveries, forging a seamless connection between precision engineering and artistic expression.
At the heart of this horological marvel beats the automatic calibre HMC 811, a masterpiece of mechanical ingenuity fully revealed through intricate skeletonization. The mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow accentuates the one-minute flying tourbillon, adorned with a blue cage bridge echoing the racing spirit. However, the true star of the show lies in the cylindrical balance-spring, a testament to the artisanal craftsmanship of H. Moser & Cie.’s sister company, Precision Engineering AG. Hand-shaped with unparalleled precision, this cylindrical balance-spring represents a marriage of tradition and innovation, embodying the brand’s unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of watchmaking excellence.
Beyond its aesthetic allure, the Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton is a testament to functionality and durability, boasting water resistance up to 12 ATM. Its compact design ensures effortless wearability, making it the perfect companion for both the racetrack and the boardroom.
Yet, amidst the celebration of luxury and performance, H. Moser & Cie. remains steadfast in its commitment to social responsibility. In a poignant gesture of generosity, the Manufacture will produce an additional timepiece to be auctioned off for charity. All proceeds from this philanthropic endeavor will be donated to AQUA PEARLS, a non-profit foundation established by BWT and its CEO Andreas Weissenbacher, dedicated to providing clean drinking water worldwide, promoting sustainability, and combating poverty.
In the convergence of speed, style, and philanthropy, the H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton stands as a beacon of excellence, symbolizing the timeless union of innovation and compassion in the pursuit of a brighter future.
