Pioneer Flying Hours

3240-0900 Pioneer

Description

Ten years after the launch of the Pioneer collection, and seven years after the introduction of the first Flying Hours model, H. Moser & Cie. is bringing these two iconic approaches together in one irresistible cocktail. In 2025, this saga is being enriched with two new references, two variations on a single theme: displaying the time via the medium of discs, inspired by the satellite systems which have marked the rise of modern independent watchmaking. In a change from the first generation, where the hours gradually appeared and disappeared, the Pioneer Flying Hours is now adopting an instantaneous display. At each new hour, the numeral jumps with instant accuracy, boosting readability and providing a more intuitive experience. In a red gold and titanium or steel case, the flying hour function on this model is powered by three fixed discs, each rotating on its own axis, arranged in orbit around a central minutes disc. With this piece, the Schaffhausen manufacturer has created a refined modular evolution, powered by its HMC 240 automatic calibre, for a fluid, graphic, and wholly captivating time display.
