Why we chose it

A note from the PRJKT8 team

We chose it because here the movement is the dial. You can follow the retrograde seconds through every layer of the skeletonised HMC 251, and it still wears like a sports watch: 40 mm of steel, 120 m of water resistance, and a khaki rubber strap in the box besides the bracelet.

The watch

Nothing on this Pioneer is hidden. There is no dial as such: the movement is skeletonised into layers of anthracite bridges and wheels, with gold-coloured hands and hour markers on top.

Among them, the seconds hand sweeps a 30-second arc and snaps back to zero, while a two-tone disc shows which half of the minute it is on. Here Moser developed the retrograde itself, inside the automatic HMC 251, with at least 3 days of power reserve.

The 40 mm steel case has a screw-in crown and is water resistant to 120 m. It comes on an integrated steel bracelet, with a khaki rubber strap too, for when you want it lighter.
