The MAN|May 01, 2020
When man first got curious about the passage of time, he began to notice the movement of the sun, moon and constellations. During medieval times, it was common practice to track changes in the lunar cycle; in other words, moonphases to tell the passing of time. Since then, this particular complication has garnered a cult following in the watch world and the fascination hasn't dwindled. So, here are the top six moonphase watches that you need to have a look at to understand this “wild” admiration

TOP 6 - MOONPHASE WATCHES

1 IWC PORTOFINO AUTOMATIC MOON PHASE

₹ 5. 43 lakh approx

KEEPING IT simple is the IWC Portofino Automatic Moon Phase. As the first timepiece from the Portofino collection to feature a moonphase complication, the watch features clean aesthetics, classic design and an understated appeal like no other.

While it was earlier offered only in 37mm or 45mm case sizes, the moon phase edition is now available in a 40mm stainless steel case with a water resistance of 3 bar. Powered by the automatic caliber 35800, the movement offers a moon phase function that is displayed on the silver-plated dial at 12 o'clock. Smart and utterly classic, the IWC Portofino Automatic Moon Phase is available in a brown alligator leather strap dedicated to the contemporary gentlemen.

2 ROLEX CELLINI MOONPHASE

₹ 17.55 lakh approx

INTRODUCED in 2017, the Rolex Cellini Moonphase is a distinctive timepiece with an exclusive display of the phases of the moon. One of the more classical timepieces from Rolex, the Cellini Moonphase is available in a 39mm 18K Everose gold case with a new mechanical automatic movement (Caliber 3195) working within that clocks in a power reserve of 48 hours. Despite its high quality aesthetics and mechanical mastery, the most special aspect of the Rolex Cellini Moonphase is the exclusive display of the phases of the moon. The lunar cycle is showcased with the help of a new moon (empty silver ring) and the full moon (specially made with a meteorite disc) — all of this is set on a beautifully designed star-studded blue enamel disc background. Priced at ₹17.55 lakh approx, the dressy Rolex Cellini Moonphase is available in a brown leather strap that works beautifully with the overall golden accents of the watch.
