The Lunar Effect

certina-watch-ds-8-chrono-moon-phase

With Halloween creeping upon us, superstitions of the full moon are in all our thoughts. Stories are told of the Lunar Effect and how each stage of the moon slightly alters human and animal behaviour alike - especially werewolves. With the night of terror swooping in quickly, it seems only apt to explore those transformed by the phase of the moon.

 

Stunning timepieces embrace the Lunar calendar incorporating a complication that accurately showcases each moon phase; a nod to how the moon was instrumental in the first method of monitoring the passing of months by our ancestors. The wristwatch feature visually demonstrates how the moon glides across the sky showing the passage of time. An artistic tribute to the early fascination with time, which has dramatically evolved.
