Watch that I miss - Speedy Moon phase white dialed ...

Team,

I was doing the proper moon phase setting today (It's full Moon) on my black dialed Moon phase and I took a look on pictures of the white dialed.

The good news are that the white dialed is more common here and one will show up.

"Destiny, here ... waiting" (The Ballad of Cable Hogue", directed by Sam Peckinpah in 1970).

Cheers,

Nilo

You're in the same boat with Marcus, Nilo . . .

. . . he also parted with a white dial moonphase Speedy some time ago, only to re-engage with a current automatic model. The limited production aventurine dials . . . . . . are my cuppa tea. ...

Is gorgeous but I want my white dialed first. Two reasons: 1) I love the contrast between the black (that I own) and the white. 2) Being a contrarian, the movement of the white (F. Piguet) was trashed by the early forums (simple enumeration, one problem t... 

I let my white dial go for the black dial too Nilo.

And brought back the Broad Arrow hands with the 1957 :-) Me thinks the black dial moon phase is more classic. Cheers! -- Richard.

I agree ...

The black dialed moon phase is more "chic" but the white dialed has its "charm". Cheers, Nilo

I like my Skeleton version
