The H. Moser & Cie. Off-Grid pairs a skeleton dial with Calibre D10 digital functions. Limited to 1,000 pieces, available from September 2026.
Where It Stands
- Limited to 1,000 pieces per reference, the Off-Grid departs from both the mechanical watch and the conventional smartwatch, positioning itself as a distinct category within H. Moser & Cie.’s Moser Exploration LAB, where subtraction, not addition, drives the brief.
- Two references: 6DI0-1202 (blue PVD, Blackor fumé dial, white rubber strap) and 6DI0-1205 (black PVD, Red fumé dial, black rubber strap).
- Calibre D10, co-developed with SEQUENT, delivers ±0.3 seconds per day accuracy and a power reserve exceeding 12 months in time-display-only mode.
- Available exclusively through H. Moser & Cie. boutiques and h-moser.com; this edition closes on 5 October 2026.
Announced from Neuhausen am Rheinfall on 21 September 2026, the Off-Grid measures 42.6 mm across and 14.4 mm in height, housed in steel with white or black composite and finished with colour-matched PVD treatment. H. Moser & Cie. describes it as neither a mechanical watch nor a smartwatch, but something that occupies the space between them without conceding to the conventions of either.
The Innovation: Calibre D10
Calibre D10, co-developed with SEQUENT, forms the technical core of the Off-Grid. Its 186 components run at 32,768 vibrations per second, achieving ±0.3 seconds per day. Power reserve varies by usage: beyond 12 months in time-display-only mode, more than six months with GMT and alarm, and over three months when the split-seconds chronograph is added to that mix.
The function list is deliberately specific. GMT with a full country selector, a perpetual calendar, a perpetual moon phase updated every hour and programmed for the next 100 years, and sunrise and sunset times accurate to one minute and thirty seconds over the same century. A vibrating alarm, a timer, and the Off-Grid travel mode — which includes a dictionary of 10 words across 21 languages — round out the module. Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 connects to both iOS and Android.
The Execution: Skeleton Architecture
Through the skeleton dial, the digital module sits at 6 o’clock beneath a small fumé sub-dial at 12 — Blackor fumé on the blue PVD reference, Red fumé on the black. The H. Moser & Cie. logo appears in transparent lacquer on that sub-dial. Super-LumiNova ceramic indexes and filled hands complete the layout. A sapphire crystal case-back engraved with the Moser hallmark closes the 12 ATM-rated case, which accepts push-buttons at 2, 3 and 4 o’clock, plus a dedicated Off-Grid button at 9.
Significance for the Manufacture
For a house that erased its own logo from dials as a provocation and stripped the perpetual calendar to three correctors, entering the digital category on these terms carries weight. The Off-Grid joins Watches and Wonders-era conversation about where independent watchmaking goes next, but on H. Moser & Cie.’s own schedule. Founded in 1828, the Schaffhausen manufacture produces around 4,000 watches per year and has developed 20 in-house calibres to date. The Off-Grid is the first to embed a digital module at that scale.
