Humankind has been obsessed with tracking the sun, the moon, and the stars for millennia. That\u2019s why we have timepieces in the first place. While tracking the sun allowed our ancestors to follow the passing of time, days, and seasons, reading the phases of the moon was one of the only ways to track the passing of months. This makes the moonphase<\/a> one of the oldest complications in the history of horology.<\/p>\n

A moonphase watch is not only a functional timekeeping instrument but also a work of art that captures the beauty and mystery of the celestial world. If you want to elevate your watch collection with a touch of elegance and creativity, a moonphase watch may be the perfect choice for you. Here’s a simplified guide to this timeless complication.<\/p>\n


\nWhat Is a Moonphase Watch?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Strictly speaking, a moonphase watch<\/a> is one that possesses a complication that tracks the 29.5-day cycle between full moons. The mechanism to track the phases of the moon predates watchmaking entirely. The earliest example was discovered in a Greek shipwreck in 1901 and dates back over 2000 years.<\/p>\n

The earliest known example of a moonphase was the Antikythera mechanism. The artifact was found off a shipwreck in the Greek island of Antikythera in 1901, but studies showed it dates back to 2nd Century BC.

When the moon has played such a great role in humankind\u2019s existence, why wouldn\u2019t we still feel the need to track it today? From religious holidays, to harvest season and navigation, it\u2019s always been a priority to track through the phases to some degree or another.<\/p>\n

The more complicated pocket watches of the 19th<\/sup> and 20th<\/sup> centuries often tracked the phases of the moon. It makes sense that when watchmakers shifted over to wristwatches for men as well as women, that the tracking of the phases of the moon followed too.<\/p>\n


\nTwo Styles of Moonphase Watches<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

There are two styles of moonphase watches the most common being the bosom moonphase<\/strong> watch. This is probably the type you\u2019re most familiar with. An aperture in the watch dial reveals the parts of the moon that are currently visible in the night sky.<\/p>\n

The other, less popular style of moonphase is the radial moonphase<\/strong> watch. This type of watch uses an indicator hand to show the current phase of the moon.

Bosom Moonphase (left) versus Radial Moonphase (Right). Blancpain Villeret Complete Calendar 8 Days<\/a> and Jaeger Lecoultre Master Grande Reveil<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The earliest mechanism used on watches to display the phases of the moon was a simple dial with two pictorial representations of the moon on either side. A 59-tooth driving wheel turned the dial once per day. After 29.5 days a full lunar cycle is completed, and the second moon would appear in the aperture on the dial.<\/p>\n


\nAccuracy of Moonphase Watches<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The standard 59-tooth wheel is consistently accurate, but still limited in the actual precision. In actuality, the moon cycle is precisely 29 days, 12 hours, and 44 minutes or 29.53 days. As such, your watch is missing 0.03 days each month. Eventually, this adds up. You\u2019ll have to manually adjust the watch a full day every two years and seven and a half months. That\u2019s how long it takes your moonphase dial to fall behind a full day. Manually adjusting every three years will be enough to maintain the accuracy of your moonphase watch.<\/p>\n

Luxury brands have adapted to a 135-tooth wheel for their moonphase dial leading to a considerable boost in the accuracy. These particular watches won\u2019t have to be manually adjusted until 122 years have passed! Not a bad trade off for a slightly more complicated wheel in the movement.<\/p>\n

\n

<><\/span>
\nHow Does a Moonphase Watch Work?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Moonphase watches<\/a> display the phases of the moon, and they’re mechanical watches. A rotating disc shows the phases of the moon, which means you can tell when it’s full or new without having to rely on your phone or an app.<\/p>\n

The moonphase is the lighted portion of the moon in the sky and the dial on your watch will display it simultaneously.<\/p>\n

The moonphase mechanism itself isn’t complicated: It’s just a series of gears that move in relation to one another as time goes by (and when you set your watch).<\/p>\n

Most basic moonphase designs use discs with holes cut out around them. This allows you to see where everything lines up on each day so that you know what phase it should be entering into next — and how far along in its cycle it has progressed since last month’s Full Moon.<\/p>\n

Some more complicated moonphase systems use digital readouts or lights that shine through a semi-opaque representation of the moon.<\/p>\n

Compared to other complications, it\u2019s not necessarily practical in this day and age, yet they are still incredibly popular. Maybe it’s our historic drive to follow the moon. Maybe it\u2019s innate and in our bones to track the world around us. Either way, they\u2019re a beautiful addition to any watch face.<\/p>\n

\nBest Moonphase Watches<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Evoking celestial beauty and poetic allure, moonphase watches stand as timeless symbols of precision craftsmanship and artistic expression. Here are some of the best examples.

Rolex Cellini Moonphase<\/a> watches are a classic example of the moonphase complication on a stunning dress watch. As Rolex is far more known for their sports watches that transcend nicely between casual and dress, the Cellini Moonphase often falls through the cracks unnoticed.<\/p>\n

At the time of its production, the Cellini was the only model in the Rolex catalog without an Oyster case, and with a moonphase dial. Located at 6 o\u2019clock is the prominently displayed blue moonphase dial, featuring a moon made of meteorite. This particular dial features an image of the full moon and a dark new moon.<\/p>\n


\nOmega Speedmaster Moonphase<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can\u2019t have a list of Moonphase watches without including the Omega Speedmaster<\/a> – the watch that traveled to the moon on all six lunar missions.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not all that makes this watch a wonderful addition to your wrist. The hyper-realistic moon image on the dial tucked behind the crescent aperture at 6 o\u2019clock, draws the eye with the incredible detail. There\u2019s even an oversized footprint marking where the watch landed on the moon the first time.<\/p>\n

The moonphase function on this watch only needs to be manually adjusted once every 10 years to maintain accuracy.<\/p>\n

The IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar Moonphase<\/a> is a remarkable timepiece that combines timeless elegance with intricate engineering.<\/p>\n

It represents a fusion of the iconic Portuguese design elements with state-of-the-art complications: a perpetual calendar, displaying the date, day, month, and the year in four digits; alongside a moon phase display that diverges by just 1 day in 577.5 years from the actual phase of the moon.<\/p>\n

The cleverly designed dial with four sub-dials includes a double moonphase display at 12 o’clock, whose mirror image shows the phase of the moon on both northern and southern hemispheres.<\/p>\n

Combine an excellent moonphase complication and a unique case shape and you have a stunning timepiece. Still, with its simplistic style, it\u2019s one of Cartier\u2019s more subdued moonphase watches.<\/p>\n

With bold Roman numerals, you\u2019d think the moonphase dial would get lost, but it subtly draws attention to the aperture at 6 o\u2019clock. The stark colors stand out nicely against the silvered guilloche dial. The stylistic aperture makes the moon peak out over a set of white mountain-like shapes.<\/p>\n

On this watch, the moonphase takes the show as the only additional dial on the face. The signature Cartier blued steel hands offset the blue of the sky quite nicely.<\/p>\n

The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712<\/a> has the moonphase as the main complication of the watch, but it snuggles nicely inside the date dial. By combining the complications, Patek found an excellent way to declutter the iconic embossed dial. There\u2019s even a small, unobtrusive indicator of the 48-hour power reserve level for the automatic, self-winding movement.<\/p>\n

Pairing a gradient blue dial with a stainless steel case, and boasting of a a transparent caseback displaying the intricate details of the movement within, it\u2019s a favorite from the Nautilus line.

The Jaeger LeCoultre Master Calendar<\/a> is a remarkable timepiece that exemplifies the brand’s expertise in fine watchmaking. The sophisticated range integrates various complications while maintaining its classic and elegant design.<\/p>\n

Watches from the range offer an easy way to read the calendar: the day of the week and month are displayed through double windows below the logo, the date is indicated through the chapter ring and a red crescent tip pointer hand, while the moonphase sits at 6 o’clock in a subsidiary dial. A cut-out showcases the current phase of the moon, adding a celestial and poetic touch to the overall design of the watch.<\/p>\n
