H. Moser & Cie. Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red Revealed

by Chamath Gamage

H. Moser & Cie. has just recently unveiled the Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red timepiece, a watch that embodies the spirit of adventure. The watch was designed in a way to appeal to the connoisseur, with its distinctive Fume’ dial and attractive case. The Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red was created to be comfortable for everyday wear, to be able to tackle almost any situation.

The dial of this latest creation by H. Moser & Cie. is the main talking point of this timepiece. H. Moser & Cie. for this model chose a brand-new dial to use, one that they knew would surely turn heads. The Swiss Mad Red Fume’ dial features as the name suggest a beautiful warm and vibrant red dial. One of the reasons why red was chosen for the new Fume’ dial was because of what the colour represents. The colour red is synonymous with passion, power and life. In some cultures, the colour red is also seen as a symbol of joy and good fortune. We might be stating the obvious here, but you will definitely be seeing joy upon looking at this Fume’ dial.

Featuring a 42.8mm solid steel case, the Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red comes with a domed sapphire crystal and a see-through case-back to be able to see H. Moser & Cie.’s in-house movement inside. 

This three-hander timepiece comes with faceted hour indices, and also includes Superluminova filled dots adjacent to the hour markers. The leaf-shaped hour and minute hands are partially skeletonised, almost making the hands appear to have the red fume’ on them as well. Overall the hour indexes and hands work well to contrast against the red Fume’ dial, making not only the legibility crystal clear but also stand out from some distance.

The engine running the Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red is H. Moser & Cie.’s HMC 200 movement. This movement has been designed, developed and produced all in-house by the Swiss brand. The HMC 200 also uses a regulating organ which has been created by H. Moser & Cie’s sister company, Precision Engineering AG. Through the open case-back, we can see Moser’s famous double stripes on the main plate and bridges and also the large engraved oscillating weight. The HMC 200 movement comes with a minimum of 3 days power reserve, allowing the watch to be not only a daily but also a decent travel watch. H. Moser & Cie is proud of this movement and rightly so, as it is 100% Swiss (no non-Swiss parts used) and 100% Moser. 

The Pioneer Centre Seconds Swiss Mad Red comes with a black rubber strap, which matches very nicely with the black tones on the dial. Overall this latest piece by H. Moser & Cie. is another testament to what the brand can do by keeping things minimal and simplistic.
