NAOS Moonphase midnight blue silver / Bridle 20 dark brown

A moonphase is the only complication that measures something you can look up and check yourself.

The Sternglas NAOS Moonphase adds that display to the most reduced dial in the brand's range, which is a harder trick than it sounds: the Naos is built on leaving things out. The moon indication is worked into the layout without crowding the markers, and the date stays where it always was.

This version has a midnight blue dial in a 38 mm polished stainless steel case with 20 mm lugs, on a Bridle leather strap in dark brown. Blue and brown is a forgiving combination, and the deep dial gives the moon display a plausible sky to sit in. A quartz movement handles the time, date and moon indication, the crystal is double-domed sapphire with double anti-reflective coating, and water resistance is 5 bar.

It suits someone who wants one poetic detail on an otherwise disciplined dial.

Perfect for: moonphase watch buyers, midnight blue dial collectors, brown leather strap combinations.
