Questions regarding moonphase Cellini
I love this watch - thinking of adding it to my watch box. Couple questions.
1. How does one read the moon phase exactly? I found instructions on how to set it, but I still don’t understand how to read it.
2. It apparently is accurate to one day in 122 years. Does this mean that after 122 years the moon phase complication is no longer usable or accurate?
3. Can one use alligator straps in water? The watch is water resistant to 50m with a screw down crown so I thought that strap would also be water friendly.
Cheers and thanks!

I can answer on point 2 and 3. There are high chances your strap is not water resistant. And as for the moon phase accuracy, that means that...
It means that, in 122 years, if your watch is continuously running, the moon will be too fast or too slow by one day... Which is theoretical, since nobody lets his watch continuously run for such a long time. Hence the limited interest of such an accuracy...
Very poetic, but I think 'moonphase' is misnaming this watch
To me the disc is useful to roughly determine the age of moon in a moon month, since there is no visual display of the moon's phases.
The Cellini is a nice watch
1. There used to be a graphic on the cellini page for the rolex website explaining how to read the moonphase, it's not so hard to tell waxing and waning, etc., after looking at it for a moment. When the solid circle is at 12, that is a full moon. When the...
Thanks!
For taking the time to reply - appreciated! Such a cool watch - just trying to make sure it qualifies as a daily wearer. Happy Monday
It doesn't burn (actually) it just reflects something else burning [nt]
