This is another beautiful moon phase watch from Arnold & Son and like all Luna Magna watches before it, it will undoubtedly be a real head turner – but that’s only if you can afford its £58,600 price tag. As long as you keep the watch fully wound, you won’t need to make any adjustment for 122 years.

It also runs at a frequency of 21,600vph and attests to accounting for the complete 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, and 2.8 seconds of a complete lunar cycle.

The manual winding movement does not need to be wound all that often, boasting a 90-hour power reserve. Decorations include Geneva striping, blued, chamfered screws and satin finished wheels. Above it, Arnold & Son have rather ingeniously included another moon phase indicator, this time one that more accuracy reveals the eight phases of the moon. Through the back of the Arnold & Son Luna Magna Red Gold Meteorite watch, you can admire the manual-winding A&S1021 calibre which includes the opposing side of the spherical moon. The exterior is completed by a blue alligator leather strap and an 18ct rose gold cover and stirrup folding buckle. It includes two box sapphire crystals on the front and back and offers a 30 metre water resistance. It is brightly polished and measures to 44mm wide and 15.9mm tall. The case of the Arnold & Son Luna Magna Red Gold Meteorite watch contrasts nicely to the lunar-inspired display in 18ct rose gold. What’s more, the opal segments of the dial are coated in Superluminova which means half the moon and hour and minutes dial glow blue-green once night falls. It beautifully reflects the light across the surface and on the large three-dimensional moon. The meteorite has a unique criss-crossing, jagged geometric structure also known as a Widmanstätten pattern. This is one of those dials you’ll appreciate more when you see it in person. The former has a milky, almost lunar sheen thanks to its opal surface to match with the two-toned opal and meteorite moonphase feature. It’s a spacious dial really, considering it has a reasonably sized off-centred hour and minutes dial at 12 o’clock and one of the largest spherical moon phase complications at 6 o’clock.
