This breathtaking product options an off-centred, white lacquered dial for the hour and the minute on the prime of the aventurine glass dial, and a particularly giant, three-dimensional moon section indicator at 6 o’clock.

Is it the primary wristwatch with a three-dimensional moon? No, it’s not. However this one is BIG because the identify Luna Magna implies. Actually, it measures a whopping 12 mm in diameter – the largest we are able to consider. For some context, this characteristic is as huge as many watches are thick, and this has some bearing on how thick this watch is.

One half of this sphere is fabricated from aventurine glass, similar because the dial itself, to signify the darkish facet of the moon. The opposite half is fabricated from marble because it symbolises the illuminated half.

The moon section indicator is ready by the crown and exactly so, due to a devoted scale on the again of the motion. You’d be appropriate to imagine that the moon section is an astronomical one, boasting the precision of a one-day deviation in 122 years. And because it weighs solely 2.2 grams, it doesn’t require numerous energy to maneuver.

That’s the reason Arnold & Son can declare a 90-hour energy reserve on the hand-winding Calibre A&S1021. The watch measures 44 mm in diameter and 15.90 mm in thickness, already together with the domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on either side.

We count on the watch to be extremely wearable although as a result of downward curvature of the lugs. This Arnold & Son Luna Magna in purple gold is marketed as a restricted version of 28 items. The manufacture didn’t point out the opportunity of future variations, however these are to be anticipated.
