I think that you can exclude that it is a Gios. Given the fork and the overall quality of the frame, I believe that it is more likely a Moser.

I believe that it isn't a super record based on the lugs, bottom bracket and the rear dropouts.

It looks like the fork was put on a so-so frame, whatever that frame was its a little older due to the longer dropouts. But it doesnt scream anything high end.

Moser bikes were not generally recognized as being high end, so it might be a Moser, but who knows?
