Can you believe there exists a material so dark it absorbs nearly 99.97% of all visible light? That’s Vantablack—originally developed for aerospace applications—and H. Moser & Cie. had the audacity and brilliance to put it on a watch dial. The result is the Streamliner Tourbillon 6805-0412, a $200,400 masterpiece that doesn’t just tell time—it swallows it.
The Void That Captivates
The moment your eyes land on the Vantablack® dial, something shifts in your perception. It doesn’t look black the way your favorite blazer looks black. It looks like a portal — a depth without dimension, a surface that simply refuses to give light back to you. Against this extraordinary backdrop, the flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock appears to float in space, suspended in an infinite void. There is no visual noise. No competing elements. Just the mesmerizing rotation of one of watchmaking’s most revered complications doing exactly what it was born to do.
This is deliberate minimalism elevated to philosophy. H. Moser & Cie. has always believed that true luxury whispers rather than shouts, and the Vantablack dial is perhaps the quietest—and most powerful—statement they’ve ever made.
Rose Gold and Darkness: The Perfect Contradiction
What makes this particular reference so visually arresting is the tension between its materials. The 40mm cushion-shaped case and the Streamliner’s iconic integrated bracelet are crafted in warm 18k rose gold—a metal historically associated with romance, warmth, and radiance. Set against the cold, light-devouring Vantablack dial, the contrast is nothing short of breathtaking. Rose gold glowing at the edges, nothingness at the center. It shouldn’t work on paper, but on the wrist, it is nothing short of extraordinary.
The Heart of the Matter: Caliber HMC 804
Beneath the drama of the dial lives an in-house automatic movement, the Caliber HMC 804, hand-finished to the exacting standards H. Moser & Cie. has maintained since 1828. The flying tourbillon—visible through the exhibition caseback—rotates with a calm precision that is almost meditative to watch. This is a manufacturer that produces its own movements and its own escapements and even grows its own hairsprings. When you invest in a Moser, you are investing in one of the last truly independent Swiss watchmakers, a house that answers to no conglomerate and compromises for no one.
Who Wears This Watch
This is not a watch for someone who needs to explain what they’re wearing. The Streamliner Tourbillon Vantablack is for the collector who already knows. The connoisseur who appreciates that restraint is the rarest form of luxury. The individual who understands that a dial with no indices, no date, and no logo—just a spinning cage of mechanical perfection against an abyss of black—is the boldest possible declaration of taste.
It is also, with 120 m of water resistance and a robust integrated bracelet, a tourbillon you can actually live in. H. Moser has never been interested in watches that live in safes.
