Interesting announcement about a new partnership between Moser and Alpine. There aren't many independent brands with the clout or resources to partner with an F1 team. I'm a fan of Moser, although I know some people feel like they are more of an insider than their "independent" status would normally represent. Regardless, it will definitely be increased exposure for Moser specifically and independent watchmaking generally. I'm excited to see what this partnership entails. Here's a photo of my Moser

Endeavour Centre Seconds Genesis, a playful and visually striking take on its core design that incorporates a QR code link to the authentication page for that particular watch. In true Moser fashion, the limited edition H. Moser & Cie. Endeavour Centre Seconds Genesis blends the brand’s signature luxe minimalist form with a lighthearted, design-forward statement style for the Web 3.0 generation. I gotta say that I love Moser and I love that they are willing to push boundaries and innovate. That said, not sure I'm on board with this one. That said, I like that they are exploring 3D printing. As a huge fan of Holthinrichs, I think 3D printing has an important place in watchmaking going forward. With recent advances, 3D printing can provide some distinct advantages such as unique design elements and incredibly tight tolerances. Photo credit to A Blog to Watch

Made with 5N Red Gold and a dial made with VantaBlack, the H. Moser & Cie Streamliner Tourbillon. Following on from the all-steel version, H. Moser & Cie. is releasing a red gold Streamliner. The streamlined aesthetic of this ode to minimalism complements the complexity of the automatic movement and the materials chosen. In a striking play of contrasts, H. Moser & Cie. distils the essence of the tourbillon, the traditional Haute Horlogerie mechanism, combining it with Vantablack®, an innovative coating used in astrophysics and taken from the aeronautical industry. Minimalist, ultra-modern and timeless. What are your thoughts? I've never liked gold cases with black dials. While I know its a classic look, it does nothing for me. On first glance, I felt the same about the Streamliner Tourbillon, but as I've looked closer, I actually kind of like the red gold with the black dial. I've always loved the Streamliner case and bracelet design - something truly out there and different. And the more I see photos, the more I'm starting to come around on the black dial with the red gold.
