That nice - how difficult is it to set the date etc if you have not worn it for a while …. I have a triple date watch but I seldom wear it coz it’s a pain to set

Thanks mate!

Yeah it’s a bit of a faff, there’s a quickset for the day, month and moonphase but the date you have to advance through midnight, then wind back to about 9pm, then forward again through midnight, kinda like a first series Royal Oak.

I don’t mind it though, I think the fact vintage watches are a bit needy is one of their charms, they demand interaction. Automatic watches are boring, if you haven’t got to twist things or push buttons then what’s the point honestly?

That is a lovely piece indeed @_DC_. Although I'm sure you have a system, this is a good video (a bit wordy at the beginning) explaining how to set the moon phase accurately. It's the same for a pusher or crown advanced complication. I often tend to just go the lazy route, if I know I'm only going to wear it for a day or so, and wing it.

Going green today

Cheers mate, yeah I’ve got two moonphase watches and I’m kinda obsessive about making sure they are correct when I wear them... I’ve got an app that tells me the correct position, either that or I set it to full moon then check when the last full moon was and advance it accordingly!

May I ask what app you use? I use Moongiant :)

Seeing as the Ice Cream Truck is servicing my corner, I'll sneak in a Sinn shot...

I hadn't worn this in a few months and decided today was the day.

@FunnyStarSystem

I use an app called “Moonphase Watch Calendar” it’s real simple and has a calendar layout so you can click back to find the last full moon and count on the days from there.

While on the subject, here’s my other moonphase gen... a triple calendar moonphase chronograph no less ;)

Decided to switch it up for something more casual... since we’re all meant to be going green!!
