The H. Moser & Cie. Streamliner OFF-GRID combines mechanical watchmaking aesthetics with a digital display, offering a hybrid timepiece retailing for US$4,900, according to the manufacturer. Designed following previous Formula 1 collaborative editions, the watch provides 12 months of battery life and multiple complications without relying on a constant smartphone connection, as reported by Andrew O’Connor.
Design and Case Specifications of the Streamliner OFF-GRID
According to specifications provided by H. Moser & Cie., the Streamliner OFF-GRID features a stainless steel case measuring 42.6mm wide and 14.4mm thick, with a water resistance of 120 metres. The watch is offered in two distinct colourways. Reference 6DI0-1202 pairs a blue PVD-treated steel case with a Blackor fumé sub-dial and a white rubber strap, while reference 6DI0-1205 combines a black PVD-treated case with a red fumé sub-dial and a black rubber strap. Both versions utilize a domed sapphire crystal on the front and a sapphire-equipped caseback displaying the Moser emblem.
The dial arrangement integrates a digital display at the 6 o’clock position beneath a skeletonized background that reveals parts of the inner movement. At the 12 o’clock position sits a small domed fumé sub-dial featuring the brand logo in transparent lacquer. The hands and applied Super-LumiNova ceramic indices maintain legibility in low-light conditions.
Calibre D10 Movement and Practical Complications
Inside the case beats the Calibre D10 movement, developed in partnership with Sequent, measuring 32.5mm wide, 33.9mm long, and 6.9mm thick. According to H. Moser & Cie., the movement operates at a frequency of 32,768 vibrations per second and is rated to an accuracy of +/-0.3 seconds per day. The battery delivers up to 12 months of autonomy in time display-only mode, dropping to six months with combined usage that includes 30 days of alarm function and one hour of chronograph use.
Did you know? The Calibre D10 packs 186 components into its 6.9mm thickness, powering features like a perpetual moon phase updated every hour and programmed for the next 100 years.
Beyond standard timekeeping, the Calibre D10 includes a GMT function with a country selector for all time zones, a split-seconds chronograph measuring 1/100th of a second, a perpetual calendar, a vibrating alarm, a timer, and sunrise and sunset times calculated for the next century, as detailed by Andrew O’Connor. Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 is built into the movement, providing compatibility with iOS and Android devices.
The OFF-GRID Mode and Standalone Functionality
Unlike standard smartwatches that demand constant app dependency and push notifications, H. Moser & Cie. designed the Streamliner OFF-GRID to operate largely independently. A pusher located at the 9 o’clock position activates the namesake “OFF-GRID” mode, which allows wearers to select a country and access a built-in multilingual dictionary displaying ten words across 21 different languages, according to manufacturer data.

Both colourways of the Streamliner OFF-GRID are limited to 1,000 pieces each, priced at US$4,900. Priority ordering is allocated to existing Moser clients from September 21st to September 23rd, followed by broader availability for the wider community running from September 24th to October 5th, according to brand launch details.
