What our Customers think

„I bought a Breitling at Zeitauktion and sold a Breitling to Zeitauktion. Very fair prices - both in the purchase and in the sale - and the entire process was simply super - it couldn't have been better. Many thanks to the team at Zeitauktion!!!"

“In Short: Fair purchase, fair price, very good contact, bought a VC Royal Eagle and traded in my watch. Everything went smoothly. Excellent watch received. Looks like new. I can therefore highly recommend the dealer and would happily buy there again.

„The best and most honest platform on the internet if you want to sell your luxury watch. At first, I had slight doubts about whether it would work, as my watch was worth a few thousand euros. But 2 days after my watch was sent, the money was already in my account. Perfect!!"

Watches with a moon phase are highly sought-after luxury watches with an extraordinary complication that can display the different phases of the moon for years, depending on the manufacturer. The display on the dial is versatile and visually highly sophisticated.

What is a moon phase?

The moon, or rather the phase of the moon, has determined people's lives for centuries. The moon phase was already used to measure time during the Roman Empire. It is a cycle that corresponds to exactly 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2.8 seconds, or 29.53 days calculated in days. The exact determination of a moon phase makes it possible for manufacturers to technically reproduce it on a wristwatch for years.

Moon phases on a wristwatch

Even early on, people were able to utilise the moon phase in relation to time and watches. With the growing popularity of wristwatches and the development of technical refinements in watch brands, the moon phase has become one of the most popular complications in luxury watches over the past 100 years. There is hardly a brand that has yet to produce a model with a moon phase.

The various models differ in the way they display the moon phase on the dial, which is often integrated at 12 o'clock or 6 o'clock. There are also larger and more inconspicuous moon phase complications, so that every enthusiast is sure to find a suitable watch for themselves.

Luxury watches and models with moon phases

If you are looking for a luxury watch with a moon phase without a particular preference for a brand, you will be surprised by the large selection. A Blancpain Villeret Lady Calendar Moon Phase for ladies, a Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar, an Omega Speedmaster Moon Phase Chronograph, a Cartier Tank Louis Cartier Moon Phase, a Breitling Bentley Mark VI Chronograph, a Zenith Port Royal Calendar Chronograph or an IWC Porsche Design Chronograph are just a small selection of watches with a moon phase.

Prices for a moon phase watch

The prices for a moon phase watch are wide-ranging. Entry-level models from IWC or Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece cost around €1,600. Many models range in price between €5,000 and €7,000. Of course, some editions can cost much more. A Glashütte Original Senator Excellence Perpetual Calendar costs more than 18,000 euros.
