The moon phase window is definitely the true star of this timepiece even if it offers a lot of subtle details (the two jewels at 12, discreet date window at 6 and floral engravings)
Such a big moon phase window is quite rare (I don’t know if it was the case when it has been made) even today. I only have in mind the Arnold & Son HM Perpetual Moon and the Konstantin Chaykin Joker which can measure up.
Thank you for this discovery (at least for me).
Best wishes

Seldom Seen Seiko - the angular moon phase

Martin Braun made one, the Selene
Here is his moonphase with meteorite dial, and this looks just like the Martin Braun and there is this one by Christopher Ward, and there is one more I know of from a French house whose name I cannot recall right now. Cazalea PS - this is nice too ...
I knew these Martin Braun and GP but I didn’t think about them. If I know the brand Christopher Ward, it’s probably the first time I see this model. You have better memories than me 😊
Regarding the French brand, it depends if it’s an old or more recent one. LIP or Pequignet maybe? Best wishes Alkiro
Well "old" meaning 1980-90's or so. The brand said Paris was its HQ
I keep banging my head on the wall hoping those brain cells will wake up!
No, that's not it - the brand was high-end, jewelry setting and much bigger moon
I think it was $7-8,000 15-20 years ago
Eureka! I have found it to be L. Leroy
Now known as montres-leroy I was in love with this for its arabic numerals and the large moon, though I cannot recall the numbers of the moon phases from the watch I saw back then. Cazalea ...
I want to know about this watch
I want to know about this watch, its production year and how much it costed back in the day. Also, can I fix this watch nowadays?
