of moonphase watches. Several dream watches here. Thanks!

thanks for your kind reply. Oliver

It's funny as, though it is a really simple complication, it remains a very appealing one. As you say, because of its romantism maybe... Here is MY moonphase watch today: I must say this Patek MP disk fits very well the Nautilus but I don't really like it...  

"it remains a very appealing one" Yes, the complication and your PP 5712 :-) This very special moon from VC is superb, but the rest of the watch doesn´t fit to me and my taste. Once I seriously thought about a custom made order with that moon from VC and ... 

has most handsome moons not so long ago BP was my favorite brand regarding moons but lately there is one exceptional moon phase indicator maybe most romantic of them all the IWC QP Petit Prince O la la Cheers D

Yes Damjan you're right. I discovered it just several days ago and indeed it may be one of the most poetic moonphase. Nice choice. Cheers, Mark ...  

that's it! I'm afraid that if I own it I'll lost my mind staring at it 24/7 :) Cordially Damjan

on a great piece Bruno you lucky man Sincerely Damjan

classical and nice one. Bruno it is always nice to see it. Thanks! Oliver

Mine is the Lange 1 Tokyo Edition. Love that watch!

your question and failed to give you a final answer. But the Lange 1 Tokyo Edition was and still is high on my (wish) list, as well. When it still was available (in Tokyo only!), I tried to see it before buying one - which was not possible for me. Now I h... 

You're not the only one my friend... And unfortunately the low turnover is not going to help us.

you presented tonight Oliver DeBethune's looks most live of all and I dare to say most handsome Great post about romantic complication Sincerely D

for your kind reply and yes the De Bethune moon indications are really outstading. Cheers, Oliver

I'm not alone Thank you Best D

HI What a stunning collection of moonphases, the square Vacheron really stood out - looked really good. It looks distinctly vintage. Cheers JML

vintage watches this VC would be on top of my list. It was a real pleasure to try it on my wrist, some time ago at a collectors dinner. Thanks! Oliver

That looks an awful lot like the Martin Braun Selene!

My one and only ...  

but still so adorable and charming. Thanks! Oliver

I really got into moon phase timekeeping devices. This and the following IWC are my favorite moon phase watches (that I've owned). Now there's a nice moon Not forgetting this, which appears a little bit off. Mike PS - forgot this one ...

you are a serious lover of that complication :-) Thanks! Oliver

Recently departed since I would much rather have a display back version rather than the closed back. What is the point if you can't see the gorgeous movement. Anyway Oliver, hope you don't have a copyright on picture layout design ! Dean ...  

has started new trend ;) and you followed it superbly Dean It would be almost impossible for me to let that moon go ;) Sincerely Damjan

I see you are closing in on the big 7,000 ! Looking forward to it ! Dean

paired with beautiful pictures. Very nice! No copyright at all on double, triple ... pictures :-) Thanks! Oliver

...and one of nature elegant iconic? Captured last night from the verandah best henry ...  

even when the first one is almost forgotten today. Does the Villeret stay with you from day one - mid 80s/90s? It´s nice to see their moon without face. Also I would not mind to have your view :-) Thanks! Oliver

acquired it after much musing in mid 90s, from AD and have enjoyed it since----sits nicely on my smallish wrist. Glad you enjoyed the view of the moonlight off the terrace of yacht club best henry

But still sparkling :) ...  

and maybe even the milky way is close :-) Impressive piece, for sure. Thanks for sharing! Oliver

Oliver, this is indeed a breathtaking compilation you presented here. One piece, one picture is more beautiful than the next. All I can do is to add the few moonphase watches I owned, resp. still own: Unfortunately, I sold this beautiful LE Speedmaster ...  

and I guess some PuristS here have never seen some of the watches posted by you. Superb! Thanks a lot for sharing! Oliver

Thanks for sharing. Wow, grail after grail in here! Love the detail on the VC moonphases the most

and I am happy that you like them. Oliver

I'll add a couple of pics. cheers fernando ...  

I was already waiting for you ;-) Thanks a lot for joining! Oliver

Have just one to add from my end. Love the moonphase complication. Darren ...  

I am a great admirer of Christian Klings, and would love to see (much) more of them! Thanks for indulging me, Magnus

Finally, I decided to join the club after following from outside for years. I've been enjoying this pearl since December 2011 and often thought about capturing a shot of a personalized full moon. Well - after twiddling about with positioning of the equipm...  

Never saw a moonphase so... Human! ;) Best, Nicolas

welcome at PuristSPro! Now we can finally show there is a man on the moon :-) If you have more pictures or maybe thoughts about the watch in general to share, it would be great to see/read them in our GO forum. Promising start! Gruß, Oliver

Joining this belatedly but I noticed that two of my moon phases were included. At least I think I don't see them in this cavalcade of beautiful watches. Here goes: First, a watch maker known for moon/planet complications: And the face of the full moon, wh...
