Still under the charm of the Emperador Moonphase...

Several years after its unveiling, the Emperador Moonphase remains for me one of the most beautiful Moonphase watches for several reasons:

- there isn't any date display and I love the watches which replace this useful complication by the most poetic one...
- the absence of a second hand creates a very peaceful atmosphere: the Emperador Moonphase is a s-l-o-w and quiet watch
- the Moonphase display is very large, the whole watch seems to be built around it
- we really feel to observe the surface of the Moon
- each piece is unique in a sense due to the creation process of this surface
- the watch is big... very big (46,5mm) but remains comfortable on the wrist. And the objective behind is to get the largest Moon. With a smaller case, I believe that the watch wouldn't have the same charm.
- automatic movement 860P is efficient and decorated with sobriety.

All these details, all these reasons make it very appealing and seducing. My fav version is by far the WG one, more discreet and whose colours are more coherent with the idea behind the watch in my point of view.
