At the beginning of 2024, the Swiss brand with the slogan "Very Rare" presents its best innovation in watch models. The Streamliner Tourbillon Wyoming Jade is an invention that takes on the natural beauty of jade.
Dressed in red gold, the Streamliner Tourbillon Wyoming Jade model celebrates this decorative stone in style, as the embodiment of refined sophistication, understated modernity, and timeless elegance. With no logo and just three indices, the dial offers an unobstructed view of the one-minute flying tourbillon at 6 o'clock, laying bare the full splendor of jade.
Limitless Innovation
An artistic canvas on which nature blends with horology, creating an exceptional watch that transcends time. The manufacturing process for the jade dials used on the Streamliner Tourbillon Wyoming Jade watch is the result of a marriage between traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. It all starts with the painstaking selection of the raw material, with each piece of jade carefully chosen for its inherent quality and beauty. Once the material has been selected, the jade is precision cut using CNC technology in a liquid environment.
This allows slices of jade just 1 to 1.2 mm thick to be obtained. These slices are then laid on jigs, wetted and inspected under a light to determine the optimal positioning of the plates for cutting the dials. The dials created, which are carefully glued to metal plates, are CNC milled to obtain the perfect outer shape, then refined down to the desired thickness. This process requires extreme precision to preserve the uniform structure of the jade. The final touch is added by hand polishing, which is carried out with care to eliminate any chips or scratches while accentuating the natural brilliance of the jade.
The final touch is added by hand polishing, which is carried out with care to eliminate any chips or scratches while accentuating the natural brilliance of the jade. At this stage, the dial-maker takes over from the lapidary, gluing the dials onto a brass base once a thin layer of varnish has been carefully applied to the back of the dial to prevent the brass plate from being visible due to the transparency, and to preserve the aesthetic integrity of the jade.
The result of a union between nature and watchmaking craftsmanship, the Streamliner Tourbillon Wyoming Jade is to be enjoyed fully yet in moderation since only 100 pieces are available. Very rare. H. Moser & Cie.'s unique take on Haute Horlogerie.
