Does anyone else here agree with my opinion that the Streamliner and Pioneers would look better with the simple and elegant "H Moser et Cie" script in a contrasting colour rather than clear lacquer? (I'm not asking for five lines of Superlative Chronometer waffle like on many Rolexes). I understand the CEOs opinion that the quality of the watch speaks for itself, but the script seems to add charm to an otherwise quite clinical dial, all the fume and sunburst effects notwithstanding. I just think it would be better to offer choices both with clear and contrasting options to appeal to more collectors. And it would make it look a bit less mall watch. (I appreciate that some Moser owners will be unhappy about that phrase, and I know the watches are anything but mall watches once you look more closely at them.)
Yes, agree, although I think it depends a bit on the dial—wanting the script. I know you’re talking streamliner and pioneer, but I got an endeavor with the script because I liked that better than some of the concept ones. But the blue lagoon one I think looks better as pure concept.

Overall, I agree the blue streamliner chronograph and green looked better to me with script in white. Of course, all the enamel dials look better without script to me—if that’s even possible to put script on it.
