Back in 2015 H. Moser & Cie created its first sports-styled watch made from a red gold case. The Pioneer Centre Seconds watch almost hit the spot for sports watch aficionados but not quite.

So, the Swiss watch company of almost 200 years dedicated a further 2 years to developing a steel version of the Pioneer Centre Seconds. That model is now the predecessor to a new iteration from H.

The timepiece is a collaborative effort between H. Moser & Cie and Collective Horology.
