Is a moonphase the must have complication of 2024? We shall see! This thing is drop dead gorgeous, just so long as you have a relaxed attitude to timekeeping and a confident attitude towards your own masculinity. Cheers, Jody

[@birdytiger]

They have made an amazing job of making genuinely distinct and varied watches right off the bat. Not putting out divers one after the other like many do

[@Horizontalvertigo]

I just got my Sugess moon phase in the mail with the aventurine dial, and I love it. Best $115 you can spend on a watch

[@markwheeler4417]

The whole point of this watch is its impracticality. There's a metaphor lurking around the idea that at night you can only tell the time by the moon. This is the third iteration of a moonphase from the brand and is certainly the most whimsical. It's not for everyone, it's not for me but it is very good looking and for those who want this it's also great value. I also wish they'd left "Swiss Made" off the dial. If you want an aventurine dial with more practicality and a smaller size CW now offer a C63 Sealander in 39 mm, indices, lume and water resistance. It's called the Celeste.

[@czguy3045]

That is definitely a beautiful watch... that I would never dream of purchasing. It's basically everything I DON'T look for in a watch but absolutely lovely and I'm certain it is finished to perfection.

[@adk7962]

Holy Tourbillon Batman! Is Jody being sent free CW Watches now. Damn…Good for you mate! It’s a beauty, but I have just way too many watches I want before I would get something like this for my collection. But again, it’s a beauty.

[@TerrySteiner]

Of CW's recent releases, I would prefer the 12 or Belcanto but you can't go wrong with any of them. Not for me but drop dead gorgeous.

[@westendwatch]

Absolutely beautiful watch and its bold design choices are to be applauded. The presence of SWISS MADE and the absence of CW branding just reflects the relative marketing power of those two marques and is an attempt to separate the watch from the 500 USD microbrand pack. Jody's concerns about legibility and practicality can be rationalised if you accept that this watch is not even attempting to compete in the GADA category. It's purely a dress watch to be judged as an objet d'art . As Jody himself might have said : If you really need to know the time wear a CASIO 😀

I hate to say this, but Sugess also make an adventurine moonphase, also with a lumed moon, and with the added features of legibility and the ability to be set accurately. It’s also a fraction of the price. Yes, I know it’s Chinese and not Swiss, but in this case, I think it’s the far better deal.

[@bumsebieneSum]

Great hint! I was not aware of this watch before.

[@zwerko]

If only there would be something between those two. CW is pretty to look at but it's super impractical, whereas the Sugess' version is far too busy to be considered gorgeous. Plus I'm inherently distrustful of Seagull movements...

[@watchthewatch3354]

​@@zwerkocheck out loresum, they will launch a big moonphase with aventurine at around 600 gbp in February that absolutely looks the bollocks. Way nicer than the CW in my opinion, miyota movement (so not swiss, but proven and reliable), and looks like a nice in between

They should have done small silver dots for hour markers. At least that way you could tell time with it😂.

My Wiccan spouse assures me moon phases are very relevant.

[@popezosimusthethird269]

About the Swiss Made marker : In order for a watch to be eligible for the "Swiss Made" label, having the indicator somewhere on the dial is mandatory. if you want to be able to legally advertise your watch as being "Swiss Made" then you don't have a choice (unless you're H. Moser and consider the label to be a joke because it mostly requires assembly in Switzerland, does not include dials and bracelets and is calculated based on added value, so instead you don't label your watches say it's "made in-house and our house is in Switzerland")

[@steffenaarsnes8066]

IMO it should have been 36mm with hour markers and no seconds hand. Beautiful dial, but a big miss for me. Cheers for the review though!

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

I kind of agree with dropping the second hand. But at that point, you may as well go quartz, and then the whole point of the watch is lost. 🤷

[@richardbently7236]

The glaring most obvious negative is the "swiss made" painted on. Bang on review.

Lovely watch, although i prefer the celeste. Just hope they make it in a 38mm in time.

[@AbdulRWatches]

I really like that clean dial, and the big lumed moon. I also like that the dial covers the other moon that circulates around, I really think CW are doing great lately.

[@mell3109]

Interesting addition, CW are assembling a rather rounded collection, go back 4 years and the offered dive and tool watches. Interesting module added to the base movement, most click round per day on a modified date model, if I’m right the moon on thin moves constantly. One thing I’m not keen on is that the moon seems pixelated but I would need to see it in hand. Moonphase is a good complication if you’re interested in tides…just saying 😁

[@jirskyrjenkins1959]

I have an emerging problem with CW unfortunately - their new watches are great, but the price point keeps escalating. I own 3 CWs all ~ AUD 1,500 including delivery; at that price point they are terrific value and one of the best brands in the AUD 1-2K range. But they want AUD 3,275 (excl delivery) for this Moonphase and AUD 5,275 for the Bel Canto, both on leather straps. These are beautiful but fairly experimental watches. At these price points I can buy some of the best Longines, Sinn or Tudor watches. So I really like these CWs but I would buy a Tudor BB 58, every day of the week, before a Bel Canto.

[@Horizontalvertigo]

I'd definitely get a Bel Canto over the 58, 58s are ubiquitous, and I just deeply appreciate the watchmaking in the design of a chiming watch, along with the modern interpretation of a classic watch style. There's nothing special about modern Tudor, Sinn has some claim to fame, and Longines watches are good, but none of them are particularly interesting or innovative.

[@bullnose01]

it definitely is a stunning watch, but I think it is too much of a one-trick pony and that its on wrist appeal quickly would fade for me. I wanted to add a moon phase watch to my collection, and I ended up getting a Farer, which I think has a more interesting dial and case design, is more versatile, costs less, and which I can actually use as a timepiece.

[@Barbecuejag]

The aventurine is certainly stunning. But I love and much prefer my C1 Moonglow. On mesh bracelet it looks and feels so elegant. Agreed these certainly aren't for anyone who is looking for a tool watch or daily wearing. But they definitely deserve serious consideration in a larger collection and by anyone who is looking for something out of the ordinary, especially for dress wear. Jody, you make watch collecting fun!

‘Swiss Made’ is quite obviously a necessary for them. Not a style of watch or watch brand for that matter, that I would ever dream of buying.

[@strongandco]

That type of dial asthetic might look good as as a wall clock in a man cave or study but not as wrist watch

[@watchdogpodcast239]

I have a concept dial Moser Endeavour. I agree with you. If you're going the sterile dial route, leave all text off. My Moser has no text whatsoever. The beautiful dial speaks for itself. CW ahould have followed suit. I think if I get a moon phase, I will just go for that new radio controlled Citizen moonphase. When it syncs, it takes care of setting the moon phase for you. Pretty brilliant and I'm surprised it hasn't been done before now

[@jamm8284]

IMO that metal case and bracelet doesnt suit the face. The leather was a good compromise but as you said that has its own issues. I think a dimpled case that represented the cratered surface of the moon would have been perfect.

Beautifully finished watch, but the only occasion I can see for wearing this is on a night out when you don’t actually care what time it is 😂

[@apollomoonlandings]

I really enjoyed watching this review. This watch definitely looks better with the metal bracelet. I really like the bracelet. Perhaps Christopher Ward should consider either micro drilling or laser etching hour divots into the underside of the sapphire crystal to indicate 12, 3, 6, and 9 hours in order to facilitate precisely setting the correct time. Perhaps laser etch the 3, 6, and 9 divots and micro drill the 12 divot so that the 12 divot could be filled with lume. Similarly, the hour and minute hands need some sort of lume filled divots. "SWISS MADE" is distracting and should be removed from the aventurine dial since it is also on the caseback. Anyway, these are my thoughts for how this lovely watch could be tweaked for better functionality.

[@wpherigo1]

Stunning! The effect as the lume fades is brilliant!

[@lkdenve]

I love the Christopher Ward C1 Moonglow. This is nice enough, but definitely not my preference.

I bought one two weeks ago. It's a beautiful piece, and the sparkling Aventurine dial makes women slightly more interested in me.

[@SideWalkAstronomyNetherlands]

So..... how can you tell the time? Just asking...lol

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

Well...... It does have hands....

[@Beechhill]

I agree totally with your critique of the text on the dial. Those things belong on the caseback. My take is this is an exhibition dress watch, and that the confusing and superfluos element is the seconds hand. Any thought of practicality or toughness has nothing to do with this piece. This is black tie country! Edit: The lume is a popart mistake.

[@franciscomoliner1296]

As has been stated before, Sugess has a version which is smaller, thinner and even available in rose gold finish for c.a. 2xx dollars. This one is to big, too thick and does not even look refined, much less dressy to me. Regards

[@dunderhay9169]

It's pretty, but without markers, I think it is more jewellry than a timepiece. Your criticisms were more pointing out design features rather than flaws.

[@EndtheWokeMadness]

It's a beauty! I dont understand the point of the second hand, since you can't precisely time things with it. The bracelet is lovely, but I do prefer it on the leather strap. I could see this watch going well with a suit, or when on leather, even with a tuxedo.

[@seancassidycowie4193]

Great looking watch, the dial is very special for the price. I just think it’s too big for a classy/dressy watch. Thicker than a speedy and over 40mm. I think this dial in a 36 or 38 would look great

[@bipennate]

My thoughts exactly, from the moment that I saw this.

[@michaelclarke1792]

I bought The Twelve, I love it and wear it more than my more expensive watches. I presume and hope that CW monitor comments. I love the watch and the adventurine dial, but I am not interested in a moon phase watch; also there is a need for hour and minute indices perhaps just small ‘pips’ If they made a similar but less expensive watch with the same adventurine dial (minus the moon phase complication) on the consort bracelet I might be inclined to purchase it.

[@watchingthewatches]

I like the watch, but with two caveats: 1) The handset looks as though it was ripped off of another watch and dropped on the dial. It's almost too angular for such a whimsical piece. Something a little more ornate or interesting would've been appreciated (like Moser-style leaf hands). 2) The bracelet seems too conventional for a watch this dressy (it looks like what you see on some of the more common Seiko Presages and lower-end Tissots, even if it is well-finished). I'm sure they were trying to keep costs down, so they didn't want to get too crazy with the bracelet, but a more unique design would've really helped frame that dial appropriately.

[@edwardsjohnpaul]

In many shots here, it really looks like a huge GASH/SCRATCH near the 2/2:30 point of the dial, which is absent in other shots? Is that a design of the dial & moonphase feature? The overall look reminds me of the NOKIA STEEL HR. I can't get past the negatives, especially the general pretentiousness of it. Overpriced and not special, I suspect this comes down to how much disposable income you have. I just cannot like this watch, and can't see the positives, but "to each their own". Very informative video, very judicious review, I certainly wouldn't have been so unbiased.

[@watchdogpodcast239]

The dial has two layers. The moon is on the bottom layer and "hides' as it goes around. That's what you are seeing

[@lammyjammer6670]

The Agelocer moonphase seems to make up for all the cons mentioned in this model while having a very similar dial design. I'd love to see you review it some time. I've always been curious about it.

[@shermano2153]

as someone said, if you need to know the time, buy a Casio or look at your phone

[@thewaywelive2775]

I would love this as a dress watch and conversation starter, but it's too big to be a dress watch imo. And I agree with the comment below about its gimmicky nature not being interesting enough for the price. I respect the fact that they took a chance, though! It's obviously not going to be in everyone's taste. I'm guessing it's difficult to predict how many they're going to sell, making it equally difficult to set the right price.

[@Horizontalvertigo]

dress watches should really top out at 36mm

[@HarshilPandit]

38mm is the right size for this watch. Remove the Swiss made and add the CW logo

[@Hrethgir]

If they had just done a brushed finish on one side of the hands, they wouldn't disappear like that. I have a Trident C65 GMT, and the center strip where the lume is located is brushed, and the sides are polished, and it is insanely legible, even in dim light. And it isn't the lume, it has very little of that, the hands are just always visible.

[@michaelclarke1792]

Just read on the comments re the C63 Celeste -Nice - but I would prefer the a plain dial simplicity of the Moonphase minus Swiss made, but with small indices for the hours and minutes

[@neogeijutsu]

[@tkindschi]

Guess I have to admit to myself that I place practicality over looks. So, I think that this one misses most of my marks. Nice effort, though!

[@thebitterfig9903]

I dunno, I kinda think it’s gorgeous. Sometimes, impracticality is the point, and this makes a somewhat convincing argument. Although the price argues very effectively against it. Might be different in person, but the starfield looks great. While a moonphase is mostly kinda useless, they just resonate with me. And when it comes down to it, if I need practical, I’ll wear one of my Casio Duros. I was starting to think “what if they lumed the hands?” Maybe with one side of the dauphine hands lumed, one polished, akin to the half-polished, half-brushed style. But I kinda feel that’d ruin the boldness of the bright glowing moon. While traditional hour markers would break up the clean dial, maybe 12 indents in the bezel would have worked. That might add some practicality back while keeping the watch face as empty as space. So to put it another way: I’d never consider a watch of this price. I have a pleasant little Casio collection I’m quite happy with (a gorgeous 3-hands Oceanus T200 at the top). But of all the kinds of watches with a price this high, most just do the same thing one Casio or another does. Is a Black Bay nicer than a Duro? Yeah, and the gap in finish level is doubtless very wide, but like, they’re both archetypical divers. One is better, but there’s countless different dive watches at all tiers of quality. This, however, seems unlike anything else. If I had a watch this pricey, I’d rather it be as unique as this moonphase.

[@ryndanriley5348]

Would seriously consider it if not for the "swiss made." Fully agree that it undercuts the entire decision to keep it free of indices.

[@bagpiper]

A beautifully case and dial. Not so sure of the bracelet or strap. The bracelet is too busy for the lines of the case. I'm thinking a mesh band would suit it better. The strap looks too narrow at the case. The clasp appears to have a more dramatic curve than seems comfortable. But my complaints probably mean little as I *not* the demographic for this anyway. A great and distinctive design - for somebody with a bigger toy budget than mine. Great review as always!

[@DrTerryBooth]

Movado Museum watch with a bigger mobile blob at the top? Having said that, I like it but I suspect it would go straight in a drawer (if that makes any sense at all). You didn't mention that you'd need to keep it wound to keep the moon phase in phase, or you have to reset it when you take it out of the drawer or you wear it with the watch showing the moon incorrectly. At least you could see the phase of the moon at night, or you could just look up in the sky to the moon phase that never needs adjusting. But the moon phase isn't the most useless complication on a wristwatch, that prize must go to the tourbillon - invented to reduce the effect of gravity on the escapement of a stationary clock - completely pointless on a wristwatch unless worn by a corpse.

[@BrianHartman]

Great review as always, Jody! This one's absolutely not for me. It's not ugly, but it fails at actually being a *Watch*. Aside from the legibility issue, it would annoy me to always have to refer to "a little past 2" and "not quite 3:30". I mean, what is the second hand on that watch even *for*?

[@Username.RandomNumbers]

Not super impressed with the execution of this one. The case seems a bit at odds with the dial. The dials screams dress watch but the case is a bit sporty and a bit too chunky. I think this issues is more pronounced with that bracelet. I think it looks a little bit dressier on the leather. I think a smaller and slimmer case would have been better. I appreciate a slimmer case would not be simple seeing as there are two slabs of aventurine in there. Maybe they should have dropped the rotor and went with a manual wind? Also I would like to see some subtle indices. Even if they are just hour markers. I'm that guy who sets my watch to the second so I need indices. And like you said, dropping everything from the dial but leaving "Swiss Made" just looks odd. This watch had a lot of potential bus misses the mark, for me.

Beautiful watch but: 1. This is a dress watch for evenings. 2. It is too thick - I would have made it with a manually wound movement to remove some of the depth - this is not an every day watch so automatic not necessary. 3. Agree Swiss Made should be removed. 4. I would do a smaller dial as well so it could be a lady's watch.
