increments of the moon’s stately and accurate
passage through the skies to be admired in detail.
Onto the large moon disc, the moon’s surface
is 3D stamped and given a semi-matt galvanic
finish, revealing its texture to full effect. The bespoke
guilloche pattern on the lower half of the centre
dial is inspired by the tidal patterns the moon’s
gravitational pull determines, and when taken
together with the polished nickel hands and
indexes, the overall effect is quite magnificent.
The complication most requested by our followers
since CW was founded in 2004, in the C9
Moonphase we have created a timepiece that
fulfils ours and our customers’ common desire,
but also one that, hopefully, does credit to the
source of its inspiration, our waxing, waning,
wondrous moon.
