H. Moser & Cie. has launched multiple variants of the Pioneer watch into the market with unique colors and components. Its latest watch is the Pioneer Tourbillon Burgundy.

This time around, the brand opted for a small and sleek design with a 40-mm case—something that can comfortably sit on the wrist without taking up too much space. The H. Moser & Cie. Pioneer Tourbillon Burgundy comes with a red gold casing—a touch of elegance and style. The hour markers also have the same hue.

Even though the casing and hour markers are quite impressive, the dial takes the whole look to a new level. As the name hints, it has a striking burgundy color, which captures attention easily. Thanks to the fume-like finish, the center and the edges have different hues—this is H. Moser & Cie.’s signature finish.

At the 6 o’clock denotation, a small tourbillion complements gold hour markers. It runs on the HMC 805 caliber, a modern and high-end movement backed by a 72-hour power reserve. This variant of the watch has a wider opening onto the mechanism, which can be viewed through partially skeletonized bridges. Both the gear train and bi-directional automatic winding system wheels are visible.

The watch also has a high-quality green strap with perforations to elevate the style. Since the strap is green, it creates a certain color contrast that shifts the focus to the dial. While the green hue is quite stylish, it is not as bright as the burgundy color.

The new Burgundy edition is priced at $65,900.

Frederique Constant unveils new Healey limited editions in pale blue
Racing heritage: Frederique constant's healey collaboration shifts to pale blue inspiration
Frederique constant's healey editions

Frederique Constant has extended its partnership with British carmaker Healey, marking two decades of collaboration. This year, two new limited editions have been introduced, departing from the traditional British Racing Green. Instead, they feature pale blue dials inspired by early 1960s Austin-Healey 3000 MKII models. Priced at €1,695 and €3,395, these timepieces continue an unusual collaboration that began in 2004.
At the heart of the partnership is a single historic vehicle: the ex-Works 1953–55 Austin-Healey 100S Special Test Car, registration NOJ393. This car competed in the World Sports Car Championship and was sold unrestored at Bonhams in 2011 for £843,000 ($1,000,000). Since then, it has been restored to its 1955 Le Mans specification.
Unlike typical automotive collaborations that focus on brand logos and color matching, Frederique Constant’s approach is different. The brand aims to capture the essence of this specific car and also supports Healey classic car rallies and community programs. Over 20 years, the partnership has produced many timepieces, most featuring the 100S’s distinctive green livery.
This year’s editions take a new aesthetic direction. The pale blue sunray dials with metallic coloring are inspired by the early 1960s Austin-Healey 3000 MKII, moving away from the traditional green to reflect the broader Austin-Healey palette while maintaining a connection to racing heritage.
The three-handed automatic variant features a curvaceous 36mm polished steel case, incorporating both Frederique Constant and Healey dial elements. Applied hour markers, including an oversized 12, are hand-polished silver with white luminous material. The bright red central seconds hand adds a sporty, dashboard-inspired touch, while the dark blue minute track flange matches the co-signing.
The chronograph edition measures 41mm and has a polished steel case with a two-counter layout. Bright red accents appear on both the central chronograph hand and the 30-minute subdial, which sits opposite the small seconds display. This color coordination visually connects to automotive instrumentation while maintaining horological function.
Both models are paired with blue leather straps and closed case backs engraved with the historic 100S. Each is limited to 1,888 pieces, emphasizing the partnership’s exclusivity while still offering reasonable availability for enthusiasts.
The automatic model costs €1,695, making it an accessible entry point into the collaboration. The chronograph is priced at €3,395, targeting collectors seeking additional complications. These price points are competitive with similar Swiss offerings and provide a sense of automotive provenance.
Frederique Constant has also reintroduced the 40mm 2023 Classics Vintage Rally Healey Automatic, featuring a steel case and British Racing Green dial. This model becomes a core collection piece, losing its limited edition status to broaden accessibility.
This partnership demonstrates how authentic collaborations can move beyond typical co-branding, emphasizing genuine community engagement and respect for automotive heritage. The result is a series of distinctive timepieces that appeal to both watch and car enthusiasts

H. Moser & Cie. revolutionizes motorsport partnerships with groundbreaking Alpine collaboration
Engineering excellence: H. Moser's Alpine Formula 1 collaboration produces groundbreaking dual timepiece release
H Moser Streamliner Alpine Drivers

Most luxury watch and automotive partnerships follow predictable formulas—logo swaps, color coordination, marketing spectacle. H. Moser & Cie. and Alpine Motorsports have rewritten these rules entirely, launching two revolutionary timepieces that represent genuine engineering collaboration rather than superficial branding exercises.
The partnership began with a provocative question: How can a two-hundred-year-old Swiss manufacturer genuinely support Formula 1 teams' quest for precision? The answer arrives through the Streamliner Alpine Drivers Edition and Streamliner Alpine Mechanics Edition—representing opposite ends of horological innovation while sharing the same pioneering spirit.
The Drivers Edition showcases the first skeleton version of H. Moser's acclaimed AgenGraphe movement, developed through direct dialogue with Alpine drivers seeking track-worthy elegance. V-shaped bridges echo Formula 1 suspension geometry, while the central bridge resembles a driver's helmet. The skeleton rotor mirrors the dynamics of the Alpine A110 wheel rim, creating organic connections between automotive and horological engineering with each wrist rotation.
This chronograph features central minute and seconds displays without subdials, emphasizing the minimalism and legibility crucial during high-speed competition. The flyback function enables instantaneous chronograph restart—because in Formula 1, as in Swiss watchmaking, every fraction of a second matters.
Revolutionary by contrast, the Mechanics Edition represents horological history: the first timepiece designed specifically as a working tool for Formula 1 teams. A mysterious black screen remains silent during standby, activating only with race-critical information including GMT with country selector, split-seconds chronograph, perpetual calendar, and a specialized F1 mode featuring countdown timers and race notifications.
"We wanted to create a measuring instrument that meets Formula 1 team demands," explains Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie. "A tool designed to improve their race against the clock, their quest for every precious second."
The connected timepiece combines digital innovation with analog tradition through a small Funky Blue fumé dial, proving precision and Swiss elegance can coexist. Compatible with Android and iOS platforms, it operates autonomously while syncing via Bluetooth, with power reserves calibrated for one year in time-only mode or six Grand Prix weekends when connected.
Limited to 200 dual sets, these timepieces transcend traditional partnerships by addressing fundamental challenges through genuine engineering dialogue between industries obsessed with precision.
