H.Moser & Cie Pioneer Centre Seconds "Mega Cool" Blue Lagoon Fume Dial 3200-1214
The Moser Pioneer sits between the brand's dedicated "sports" watch, the Streamliner, and the rest of the collection. While it follows the overall aesthetic of its dressier cousins (round case and simple dial layouts), they are often larger and feature luminescent hands and markers. This makes for a watch that's more legible while keeping to the signature Moser aesthetic.
Even though H. Moser & Cie has only been around in its modern form since 2002, the brand has become synonymous with guerrilla marketing, customer engagement, and, of course, fume dials. These "smoked" dials are darker towards the outer edge, creating an aesthetically pleasing gradient.
Moser has featured fume dials across its collection, making them a ubiquitous yet beautiful presence in its lineup of watches. The dials make the most of the gorgeous colours and textures by keeping other decorative elements to a minimum, allowing them to really shine.
H. MOSER & CIE
H. Moser & Cie was originally founded in the early 19th Century in St. Petersburg, then part of the Russian Empire. It supplied the much of the European monarchies and aristocracy throughout its original iteration, and was re-founded in 2005 by one of Heinrich Moser's grandchildren.
Since its relaunch, the brand has been known both for its high-end watchmaking innovations as well as its eye-catching marketing approach. From making an Apple watch lookalike (its latest version complete with the "loading" icon) to crafting a watch out of Swiss cheese, Moser is no stranger to controversy. At the same time, its horological innovations are undoubtedly significant, including the world's first modular escapement, which eliminates one of the most time-consuming aspects of servicing a watch.

As part of our commitment to transparency, we're showing you this watch on our timegrapher. Testing is done in six positions, covering how the watch is worn in daily use.
Timegraphers listen to the ticks which a movement make. Professional machines like ours can take more measurements, create a graph, and support more escapement types.
"Accuracy" refers to how many seconds a movement gains or loses each day. COSC standards require -4/+6 seconds a day, while vintage watches may read closer to -60/+60s.
"Amplitude" tells you how much the balance wheel is moving each rotation. Certain escapements have a higher amplitude, while some will have a lower value by default. A below-average reading for your watch's escapement suggests there is friction in the movement from a lack of lubrication.
"Beat error" is an indication of the alignment between the timekeeping components. In modern watches, a reading under to 1.0ms should be expected, while vintage watches may have a reading of up to 3.0ms.
