Belisar Chronograph Moon Phase white/gold

BELISAR
CHRONOGRAPH MOON PHASE

WHITE DIAL WITH ROSE GOLD ACCENTS AND LEATHER STRAP

TO THE MOON AND BACK

The moon phase display is one of the most traditional complications in watchmaking. Union Glashütte presents a timelessly elegant iteration of this design feature. A round 44 mm stainless steel case provides the perfect backdrop for the Belisar Chronograph Moon Phase. The push-buttons on the chronograph mechanism are accompanied by a discreet corrector positioned at 10 o'clock, which enables the wearer to set the day of the week separately. Among its other attributes are the anti-reflective coating on both faces of the crystal, water resistance of up to 10 bar (100 m) and the screwed-on flanks that are characteristic of the Belisar collection. All these features are complemented by a brown calfskin leather strap with crocodile-skin finish and light-coloured contrast stitching.

SPECIAL FEATURES

The moon is as beguiling on the wrist as it is in a clear night's sky. The finely crafted golden moon of the Belisar Chronograph Moon Phase follows its path against the dark blue sky. The moon finds itself in good company: an array of calendar functions strikes a clear contrast against the white dial with its rose gold coloured indices and numerals. These include the date, which is displayed via a central hand with a crescent-shaped tip, and the day and month displays positioned at 12 o'clock. As with the moon phase itself, these elements are stylishly integrated into the chronograph's counters – the 30-minute counter at 12 o'clock and the 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock. The small second, meanwhile, shares its counter with the 24-hour display at 9 o'clock. A blued stop-second hand in the centre can also be used to measure short time spans.
