Both parties continue to create surprises in their respective fields by creating works that subvert imagination and break the rules. The new limited-edition Streamliner Chronograph UNDEFEATED special edition (Streamliner Chronograph UNDEFEATED), with the theme of victory and virtue, highlights the smooth lines of the Speeder series with a bold design of minimalism and readability, with a very sporty feel. The design perfectly echoes the “Play Dirty” philosophy of the street culture brand. The Speeder Chronograph UNDEFEATED Special Edition will be available on the website, selected UNDEFEATED boutiques and H. Moser & Cie. e-commerce platform from June 22nd.
random encounter
Founded in 2002 by James Bond and Eddie Cruz, UNDEFEATED opened its first clothing and sneaker store on Los Angeles’ legendary La Brea Avenue. UNDEFEATED currently has 28 stores worldwide, making it one of the most influential brands today. Since its inception, UNDEFEATED has always been committed to launching highly representative co-branded groups, cooperating with artists and brands to create highly sought-after limited-edition works in diverse fields ranging from mainstream basketball culture to luxury cars.
The idea to collaborate with H. Moser & Cie. came from Eric Cheng, one of the partners of UNDEFEATED. As an avid fan and collector of H. Moser & Cie. watches, he contacted Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie., and said: “H. Moser & Cie. has become an unbeaten player in watchmaking with its unconventional approach and philosophy. The brand Its two strengths are boldness and timelessness. This is an inspiring watchmaking brand, so we decided to connect with Edouard and his team.” The story later, everyone knows!
new design
The Speeder series shows exquisite fluidity with geometric curves and dynamic design, becoming a very distinctive timepiece. For the first time in this series, the cushion-shaped case is coated with anthracite-grey DLC and is paired with an integrated stainless steel strap. “We used the DLC process on this piece at the request of UNDEFEATED. Eric Cheng wanted us to create a watch with a bold design, strong personality and vitality that would gradually develop a patina over time,” revealed Edouard. This bespoke watch features a black tiger camouflage patterned smoked dial. This pattern, a favorite of UNDEFEATED, requires multiple layers of varnish to create the dial tone after engraving. The lacquer is then surface-finished to achieve H. Moser & Cie.’s signature smokey effect. In fine watchmaking, details are always the key to great success. The Speeder Chronograph UNDEFEATED Special Edition combines perfect proportions, sleek shapes and superb Haute Horlogerie craftsmanship. Like other models in the Speeder series, this new chronograph also echoes the name of the series with a smooth curve – the first high-speed trains that appeared in the 1920s and 1930s. Grey scales wrap around the edge of the dial, with the outer track measuring the seconds and the inner track counting the minutes. The black rhodium-plated stainless steel UNDEFEATED logo at 12 o’clock perfectly echoes the three applied numeral hour markers. A discreet light grey H. Moser & Cie. logo is adorned directly below. The chronograph central hand for precise measurement has a contrasting wide end and a very thin tip, similar to the design of the hands of a car instrument or a measuring instrument. UNDEFEATED and the Manufacture chose to make the hour and minute hands in a three-dimensional curved shape. The hands are divided into two parts, covered with anthracite Globolight® inlays, and made of an innovative ceramic base material with Super-LumiNova® luminous material.
Extremely precise
The Speeder Chronograph UNDEFEATED Special Edition is equipped with a chronograph movement jointly developed by AGENHOR and H. Moser & Cie. This movement has a complex functional structure, but its functional display is centered on simplicity and legibility, with a practical and ergonomic central chronograph display. The Speeder Chronograph UNDEFEATED Special Edition is water-resistant to 120 meters (12 ATM) at rest and in action, with an understated and elegant appearance that is easy to read.
stories of success
The Speeder Chronograph UNDEFEATED Special Edition comes from a cross-border cooperation in two very different fields, and it is another representative work of this cooperation model. The watch is limited to 76 pieces and will be available on UNDEFEATED.com and H. Moser & Cie. on June 22. In addition to the watches, the two brands also launched a capsule collection, including H. Moser & Cie. Wall Clocks and the “Friends & Family” limited-edition jacket developed exclusively by UNDEFEATED. This capsule collection not only provides a richer choice for the community that actively participates in the brand’s interaction, but also completes the new world created by the passion of the two brands.
H. Moser & Cie. presents a unique insight into the craftsmanship of fine watchmaking.
