Introducing: The Luxurious H. Moser & Cie Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Boutique Edition
It’s full steam ahead for H. Moser’s luxury sports Streamliner collection. Introduced in 2020, the fluid, sophisticated design of the Streamliner has hosted a Perpetual Calendar, a Tourbillon and its first model, a Flyback Chronograph with one of the best chronograph calibres designed by movement specialist Agenhor. Thanks to record growth and its increasing dominion of the independent scene, Moser has been busy developing retail spaces in Asia, the Middle East, America and China. The latest interpretation of the Streamliner Flyback Chronograph celebrates the opening of Moser boutiques in Hong Kong and Shanghai and, for the first time in its three-year lifespan, appears in a luxurious red gold case on a rubber strap with a Matrix Green fume dial.The success of Moser’s luxury sports watch is that it does not fall into the trap of emulating the 1972 octagonal Royal Oak designed by Gerald Genta - the indisputable leader of the pack and its countless copycats.

First Look: The Bulgari x MB&F Serpenti, A New Striking Collab
Incredible things can happen when you put Bulgari's designer extraordinaire and director of watchmaking, Fabrizio Buonamassa, and MB&F's visionary founder and creator, Max Busser, in the same room. Joining forces for the second time, the dynamic duo has envisioned a new habitat for Bulgari's iconic Serpenti that sheds its familiar feminine universe and takes possession of a purpose-built Horological Machine. Beady-eyed MB&F fans might recognise some features of the mechanical movement powering the HM10 Bulldog, which has undergone significant modifications to adapt to the sleek, sinuous habitat created for the Serpenti. Available in pink gold, titanium and black PVD, each limited to 33 pieces, fans of both brands are going to relish its bite.

Hands-On - Louis Moinet Ultravox Hour Strike Watch Made with Eric Coudray (Live Pics, Specs & Price)
The unique way Louis Moinet stages complications has become something of a brand signature. Its double tourbillon with kaleidoscope (Mobilis), oversized tourbillon poised with a planet in orbit (Space Mystery), dial side chronograph (Memoris), original retrograde seconds (Tempograph) are all examples of Jean-Marie Schaller's (the brand CEO and creative director) taste for the spectacular. And the new Louis Moinet Ultravox that was unveiled today is no exception.The brand's latest creation, the Louis Moinet Ultravox, features a rare complication: the hour strike au passage', displaying its striking mechanism up front, on the dial. An unusual choice, the complication can be admired in its entirety without being hidden beneath a dial or on the back side of the watch. This allows for a clear view of the mesmerising ballet of its hammer, rack, fly-wheel, levers and other mechanical processes taking place dial-side. The depth of the watch's face, with each part contrasting against a Moinet b

Video Review Omega Speedmaster Super Racing and Spirate System
A tiny device that makes a massive change… This is how Omega teased its latest technical development, and the watch to house it. The technical achievement in question has a name, it’s the Spirate System. The watch to feature it too, it’s the Omega Speedmaster Super Racing. And we introduced both to you in an article last week, with quite some details. However, this new device that allows ultra-fine tuning of the rate of the watch isn’t really simple to understand. The result and the way to use the Spirate System in real life, for the watchmakers, is extremely efficient. There is true watchmaking science behind it, however. And in this respect, a video will always be more precise than static images to understand such technical topics. Hence why we decided to bring you all the details about the Speedmaster Super Racing and the Spirate System in a video that you can look at right here, on top of this article.?What is the Spirate system…? It is a new technical

The new Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial… THE star of Baselworld 2014, a truly inspired watch with its superb vintage design, a great horological content, and the introduction of a fully?anti-magnetic movement! We’ve covered it multiple times already on Monochrome (here and here). After all the noise created around this timepiece, it was clearly time for us to use it, to feel it, to show it. Well, we’ve been testing the Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial in titanium over the space of a whole summer.Omega surprised us just before Baselworld 2014, with a teaser showing a new dive watch. You know us here at Monochrome-Watches, we can’t resist opening our photo-editing software and to imagine the future novelties. So, we’ve predicted this new watch. The impatience was great before the annual watch fair, as we knew Omega was cooking something cool. The result was beyond our expectations, with a superbly designed watch which had been inspired by one of the b
