Introducing the H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner Chronograph Automatic ‘Frozen’

The Streamliner has always been one of the most distinctive models in the H. Moser and Cie. lineup. It is modern and sculptural without feeling overdesigned, and it does minimalism with enough confidence to stand out in a crowded segment. For Watches and Wonders 2025, Moser is doubling down on that identity with the Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Automatic Frozen. Available in both 5N red gold and stainless steel, this new version leans into texture and light in a way that feels totally fresh and insane.

The headliner here is the frosted fumé dial, which manages to be both understated and completely attention grabbing depending on how the light hits it. Moser has taken two of their best dial colors, Midnight Blue and Matrix Green, and applied a new sculpted texture that looks almost like powdered snow caught mid swirl. The result is a chronograph that feels equal parts high performance and high art.

The Juice

Let us start with the obvious. These dials are beautiful. Moser already had one of the best blue and green in the game, but this new frosted execution changes the entire vibe. They start with a base brass plate, engrave it by hand to create the pattern, then apply multiple layers of tinted lacquer to give it depth. At the right angle, the dial reflects like it is dusted with crushed ice. It is subtle until it is not, and that is what makes it special.

Then there is the movement. The HMC 907 is not just a nice looking calibre. It was developed with Agenhor, which basically guarantees you are getting something serious. The oscillating weight is hidden between the dial and the movement so that you can see everything else. That means the column wheel, the levers, and the whole chronograph mechanism are fully visible through the caseback. Functionally, it is a two register central chronograph with flyback capability and it works beautifully. The smooth start and reset are a result of a friction wheel design that avoids the usual jitters when you engage the chronograph. It feels engineered for someone who really appreciates a good chronograph, not just the look of one.

In the steel version, the Matrix Green dial paired with the matching bracelet gives the watch a clean sporty feel. The case curves in all the right places and the bracelet has a fluid drape that makes it wear well on just about any wrist. The red gold version on rubber is a little more unexpected. Gold sports watches can be tough to get right, but this one feels bold without being too flashy. The dark blue dial keeps it grounded and the rubber strap adds just the right amount of contrast.

What is consistent across both models is the attention to detail. The pushers are integrated at two and ten o clock with the crown at four. The hands are filled with Globolight which is a luminous ceramic compound that lights up nicely in low light. There is a tachymeter scale on the outer edge of the dial and the chronograph hand is a bright red that keeps it legible and easy to follow.

Final Thoughts

The Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Automatic Frozen feels like the best version of what Moser is trying to do. They are not chasing vintage, they are not leaning on heritage, and they are not copying anyone. This is a modern chronograph through and through with real watchmaking under the hood and a ton of personality on the surface.

It is easy to say that the dials are the star of the show, and they are, but this is not just a dial update. The combination of sculptural case design, top shelf movement architecture, and thoughtful color execution puts this in a different category. It is sporty, but refined. Complex, but clean. It is one of those watches that feels instantly familiar but gets better the longer you spend with it.

If you already liked the Streamliner, this is probably the most compelling version yet. And if you were still on the fence, this might be the one that pulls you in.
