Joining Filip in being predictable - a fresh shot of the Habring2 Aurora ⏱️🌊🇦🇹
Just like Filip with his Sarpaneva, I am still in the honeymoon phase with the Habring2 Aurora that arrived in December. Slowly exploring it on different straps, here on a moon phase matching grey canvas.
I guess one reason for it being worn so much is that I cannot be bothered to learn to set the moon phase 😂😉

That's one sleek design....
And yes, I totally empathize with your Moon phase blues! It's such a romantic complication that I, admittedly, don't pay much attention to since the actual item is readily displayed in the sky most of the time 😄👍
I am with you there 😂🤷🏻♂️
In this context - with the tide complication - it makes a lot of sense, since the magnitudes of the tides are moon phase dependent. But then again, as with everything there are better, non mechanical tools for it all 😉
Thanks - thought so, too! 😊👍🏻
Will try some non-grey straps next. I have the impression that it’s quite versatile strap wise 🤞🏻👍🏻
Great shot
and very appealing watch! I'm not surprised you keep enjoying wearing it. The grey canvas strap works perfectly. Best, Emmanuel
Thanks a lot, Emmanuel 👍🏻🙏🏻
It does change the vibe a little bit to make it a tad less somber 😊
Obviously nice strap! :)
By the way - why "antarctic moon"? This would mean, that the moonphase is shown mirror-inverted in the northern hemisphere? And PS: Don't get confused with the tide indication at Lake of Constance...
