Interesting.

But, I'll pass.

[Krant]

Yeah me too.
The bracelet looks real comfortable but overall to much retro feeling for me.

Ehhh.
Not feeling it. Cool movement though.

I saw some other pics from the link you posted to the Moser site, looks very cool. I like this one, need to see in person.

Pretty good review of the chrono:

Movement looks stunning! The rest not so much... Seems many on IG seem to like it, but I really can't see the appeal.

I agree. it's different though, I'll give them that!

[b0rderman]

If I want to be negative, it is an oakley/nixon/singer mash-up...but that is not true or fair.

When the teasers came out, I was questioning how they would get their scripty signature to jive with a contemporary sport watch...but it feels perfectly at home on the dial.

+1

Much more pleasing and consistent in terms of design than the recent Lange and Chopard sports watch releases in my view...

[RTG]

I’m liking the Streamliner a little to much. Love the chronograph minute hand strike. Love that it doesn’t look like a Chronograph. Movement with hidden rotor is really cool. Checks a lot of boxes for me.

Hopefully you guys buy them all fast so I miss out.

Moser owner here but the Streamliner is not doing it for me at all!

[astewartconst]

I like it a lot but it’s too expensive and limited for me right now

Interesting watch for a flyback. A bit too much though, price wise

[PJ S]

Price is reflective of the fact that it’s a completely new chronograph design, which if Moser themselves were to have done, would’ve taken 7 years and at least CHF 5M.
Divide that by 100 pieces, and they’d need to sell them at 100K each, just to recoup the development costs.
The same design is in Faberge and Singer watches, but the Moser one has a few tweaks compared to those, making it somewhat bespoke.

[ajw45]

I agree, it does feel a little pricey. Central minutes chronographs on the market range from damasko for a few grand to panerai flyback around 15k so the complication itself is not inherently expensive. 40k is big time, more than the comparable AP and VC chronos. You'd have to really like it to go that way.

Thank you all for the insight. I am purchasing my first Moser soon! I did not want to quote member "bigfatpauli" because his remarks seemed quite triggered, personal and negative.. but I looked into some of his other posts and quickly saw a pattern.

I haven't been this excited for a new brand in quite some time. Although the Streamliner movement is excellent, the watch is not my taste.. but I also do not like ALS' shot at a integrated bracelet with the Odysseus either.

I look forward to being in the Moser community. I have always been a fan of indy's. Cheers!

Tried on my 1st Moser today. Defendant attorney on one of my cases complimented me on my Octofinisimo in court and I asked what he was wearing. I believe it was a black dialed pioneer. Nice watch. From pictures though, I think I like the blue funky the most.

Random question - I JUST bright an Endeavour (absolutely love it!!). When I tap on the glass (either side) I can hear a vibration. Nothing much, but absolutely
vibrating. Could that just be a spring moving? Keeps fantastic timing, don’t see any screws loose. But do feel something moving\vibrating when I tap on the glass

Makes a noise like a coil is wiggling. Something is audibly vibrating when you tap on it.

Normal I found with their standard three hander auto movement

If your Endeavor is a Centre Seconds, it could be the pawl winding system on the rotor. HMC 200s are noisy movements, both with the winding rotor and the keyless works.

Thanks!!! Feel much better now

The watch I was talking about - My new Endeavour Centre Seconds - Mosaic Green fumé (limited, 50)

Depending on the angle of the light, the pieces change hue/color

Thanks!!

Having bought and sold 40+ watches, I’m just realizing this is the first new watch (excluding toss around stuff) I have ever owned. I’ve always bought second hand.



I’m pretty excited to be in the Moser world now.

Congrats and welcome aboard!

Not normally one to name drop, but pretty interesting tidbit. I got to meet Ed and Nick a little over a year ago. I brought up the idea of creating this watch for customers (they created a one off mosaic endeavor about two years ago or so in blue, the mosaic was first used in the Alp tourbillon). They seemed initially hesitant, but I really thought it was such an interesting dial that they would have buyers. Left thinking they wouldn’t make it, but was pleasantly surprised when I saw the release on IG. Anyway, pretty cool that they seriously take feedback and suggestions from customers.

Well then, thank you! I’m proud to have one.

He didn’t take my advice of a 40/41 pioneer
