The best luxury lunar watches
Joanne Glasbey picks out some of the most creative and interesting moon phase timepieces
Witnessing the different phases of the Moon has captivated man for millennia. Its monthly orbit around our Earth has inspired not only astronomers and navigators — who used the heavenly bodies to track time and the tides — but poets, writers and artists, fascinated by its physical and psychological impact. Watchmakers, too, have fallen under its lunar spell, some producing the most creative and interesting timepieces of their collections. Here we highlight some stellar examples.
