H. Moser, Chanel, De Bethune, Louis Vuitton: 4 luxury watches to discover in 2026

In the spring of 2026, four watches are capturing the attention of collectors. Among them, a Louis Vuitton creation stands out for its audacity and technical mastery. The watch panorama also features pieces by H. Moser & Cie, Chanel and De Bethune.

H. Moser & Cie. reinvent the Streamliner in compact format

Since its launch in 2020, the Streamliner from H. Moser & Cie. has established itself as a modern benchmark. Its flowing design and integrated bracelet have won over enthusiasts. However, its size has been an obstacle for some wrists.

With the Streamliner Two Hands in 34 mm and 28 mm, Moser corrects this shortcoming. The 34 mm model retains the sculpted case and seamless bracelet characteristic of the collection. In this way, the watch remains true to its DNA while gaining in discretion.

The smoked silver dial, with its frosted texture, captures the light in a subtle way. This version sacrifices nothing for elegance. What’s more, it goes with every outfit, from suit to casual look.

“This watch isn’t just a smaller Streamliner, it’s also more versatile.”

An uncompromising mechanical movement

The 34 mm version features the in-house HMC 400 movement, while the 28 mm version houses the HMC 410 caliber. Both offer a 60-hour power reserve and solid gold oscillating weight. This level of finish remains exceptional for a watch with a minimal display.

By offering more compact formats, Moser is broadening its audience. The brand is now opening its doors to wrists that were previously out of reach. This evolution reflects a real desire for accessibility.

• Streamliner Two Hands available in 34 mm and 28 mm
• Smoked silver dial for the 34 mm model, smoked burgundy for the 28 mm model
• HMC 400 and HMC 410 automatic movements
• 60-hour power reserve
• Solid gold oscillating weight

Chanel Monsieur Lion Tourbillon Black Edition: the power of the symbol

Chanel strikes hard with the Monsieur Lion Tourbillon Black Edition. Limited to 55 pieces, this watch combines a matt black ceramic case with an openworked dial. The flying tourbillon, positioned at 6 o’clock, is an immediate eye-catcher.

The laser-engraved lion’s head in the tourbillon cage is the real ornament of this model. This symbol refers to Gabrielle Chanel’s astrological sign. It is part of the House’s watchmaking DNA.

Technically speaking, this timepiece offers a 72-hour power reserve thanks to its two barrels. In-house caliber 5.1 confirms Chanel’s watchmaking ambition. In a market saturated with tourbillons, this model manages to stand out.

De Bethune DB28xs Sea Tourbillon: mechanical poetry

De Bethune offers an atmospheric vision of watchmaking with the DB28xs Sea Tourbillon. Its blued titanium dial features a random guilloché pattern that evokes light on water. The 39 mm case in mirror-polished titanium remains highly portable.

The brand’s signature floating lugs add visual lightness. Beneath the dial, a hand-wound movement offers five days of power reserve. The tourbillon rotates once every 30 seconds at high frequency.

Louis Vuitton Tambour Taiko Arty Automata: pop art on the wrist

With the Tambour Taiko Arty Automata, Louis Vuitton pushes the boundaries of watchmaking expression. This timepiece is neither discreet nor sober. On the contrary, it assumes a radical artistic bias.

The white gold case measures 42 mm. The dial features 23-tone enamel, diamond-set Monogram flowers and a blinking eye with feathery lashes. Glossy lips embrace a candy-pink heart. This visual composition is unlike anything else on the market.

Press the push-button at 8 o’clock and seven elements come to life simultaneously. A flying tourbillon anchors the whole. The automatic movement, developed in-house by Louis Vuitton, reflects a rare technical mastery. This creation is one of the most audacious watches of 2026.

Louis Vuitton thus confirms its place in creative haute horlogerie. Far from traditional codes, the Tambour Taiko Arty Automata is aimed at collectors in search of unique timepieces. It embodies a joyful, uninhibited vision of mechanical luxury.
