Whereas the Grande Seconde Dual Time 

Updated the initial model by putting a GMT indication within the large seconds/date display subdial (the low circle from the dial’s figure eight), the Grande Seconde Moon adds an uplifting astronomical moon-phase indicator. Requiring adjustment just once every 122 many 46 days

The specifically developed “mechanism 135” for that moon-phase includes a carefully studied gear ratio which makes it a lot more precise compared to 59-toothed mechanism inside a traditional moon-phase, which builds up a mistake of 1 day in roughly 2 yrs, seven several weeks, and 20 days. Top of the subdial discreetly displays the hrs and minutes.

The timepiece comes with an 18k rose gold situation calculating 43 mm across

And it is graced by having an ivory enamel dial as well as an applied, satin-finish, rose-gold circular ring all around the moon-phase aperture. (You'll also have two steel-cased models available, one having a silvery opaline dial with Roman numerals within the upper subdial, another having a deep silver dial with thin hour indices within the upper subdial.)

The self-winding movement from the Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde Moon is seen with the caseback.

The moon-phase disk, nestled within the circular scales for that seconds and also the hands-type date indicator, consists of blued steel, with small gold stars along with a realistic-searching gold moon that rotates clockwise in faithful tune using the actual moon’s lunar cycles. The double-level structure from the dial helps with legibility, while a corrector situated in along side it from the situation at 8 o’clock - run by a stylus that's incorporated with every watch - makes adjustments from the moon-phase easy.
