Description

uSince the dawn of time, the moon has been a constant source of inspiration for scholars or scientists. This fascinating satellite is known to exercise an influence on both tides and times. The True Moon aventurine is a celestial and original time instrument.Like its predecessors the True Moon aventurine depicts a realistic patented moon phase system on the dial. It is the world-first mechanism capable of keeping precise track of the true waxing and waning faces of the nocturnal star.In addition to this grand complication movement, this timepiece is a highly precious object. Inlaid diamonds on the case and aventurine used for the dial contribute to its rarity and exception.Aventurine is a variety of quartz containing sparkling particles of mica. It emits golden reflection and gives a totally aerial dimension to the timepiece. For an aside, thanks to this incredible and brilliant material, the time instrument is a complete reference to the whole solar system as it is also called Sunstone.The True Moon aventurine is the perfect representation of an innovative perpetual moon phase system.
