RIGHT TIME, RIGHT PLACE

Edouard Meylan, CEO of luxury independent brand, H. Moser & Cie., reflects on his company's evolution on the occasion of the opening of its new Singapore boutique.

H. MOSER & CIE. HAS OPENED its first standalone boutique at Raffles City in Singapore, offering local collectors a new home for the independent watchmaker. For CEO Edouard Meylan, the milestone marks a natural turning point driven by rising global visibility, deeper resonance with collectors, and the brand's continued momentum in product development.

Founded in 1828 by Schaffhausen-born watchmaker Heinrich Moser, the brand first built its reputation in St Petersburg, supplying highgrade pocket watches to the Russian aristocracy and imperial court. Following its acquisition by the Meylan family's MELB Holding in 2012, the brand entered a new chapter under Edouard as it rolled out timepieces marked by bold fume dials, clean no-logo aesthetics, and concept pieces that challenge conventional horological traditions.

This evolution repositioned H. Moser & Cie. as a respected independent brand with a distinct voice grounded in watchmaking.
