The shape of the case is particularly well thought out and made. You definitely own an unusual timepiece but, at the same time, a dressy and timeless one for me. A good compromise between modernity and classicism
Beautiful piece! Since you own it I have to ask your opinion...

...wat made you pick moonphase over date complication? A lot of watches are doing just the time with moonphase complication only (very easy to replace+/add to seconds gear) which to me is least useful of all basic calendar functions.
No doubt a seconds hand would be useful for accurate time setting.
But you know how classic high-end Cartier pieces just tell hours and minutes. Those models with seconds and date are less desirable. Example: Tank Louis Cartier, Cartier Santos Dumont dials are very clean compared to “lower end” Tank Solo, or even the Santos 100.
It looks larger because the face is not round. And my picture is angled. It looks more proportioned when taken with the face flat on the wrist. The crystal is significantly domed. But still thin enough to fit under the sleeve. I guess I have to take a picture of that as it is rarely shown.
They say you only need to adjust the moon phase once every 125 years. That is if you kept the watch going for that long. Hehe.
