Teddy, at 54 years old I'm just "getting into" watches, after raising 4 kids and finally finding myself with a bit of disposable income to spend on myself. I stumbled up your channel quite by accident and have found your videos to be so incredibly helpful as I navigate this journey. Thanks very much for this exceptional content.
It honestly makes me feel GREAT that I’m 33, raising 3 children, in love with watches I can’t afford and therefore can’t attain and enjoy, and a 54 year old guy is finally able to spend some of his sweat on himself and is HAPPY! It makes it a lot easier to to enjoy viewing and learning, and take my time to save up and get pieces I will really enjoy.
PS; cheers to you for making your children your primary expense for as long as you have and sacrificing things you obviously wanted, and waiting until your children could carry themselves. You’re a good man, a good father, and I LOVE sharing hobbies with people who have such honourable trait’s. May you be blessed with your favourite JLC, Vacheron or A. Lang soon ❤️
Well done, Sir. Raising 4 kids, I take my hat off to you. I wish you an enjoyable journey in the watch world. Me, I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum, having had my first kid this year, aged 52. God willing, he might get siblings, so it's a good thing I managed to build my collection as disposable income dries up.
@@MarazAmc Thank you!
@@johnnyguitar6697 Thank you!
I would love a moon phase watch!
Love moon phases. The Lange 1 moon phase is, IMHO, the most beautiful watch I have ever seen. It’s stunning. I wish more companies would adopt the day/night complication behind the moon. It’s exquisite.
The Lange is indeed the pick of the litter.
Its a shame that only the Lange 1 moon phase looks that good, I wish all of Lange's moon phases looked like that. Its a completely moot point of course since I won't be able to afford any of these but I wish the Langematik perpetual, , datopgraph perpetual, saxonia annual calendar and saxonia moonphase had the moon phase from the lange 1 instead of their normal moonphase. The blue us much more rich and the stars are painted with much greater detail on the lange 1 compared to their other moonphase offerings.
You know, Teddy, I’ve been feeling like I need a moon phase watch in my life and hear you are reading my mind and giving me exactly what I wanted before I ever asked for it. You are the man!
My favourite complication! Adds a lot of elegance to the dial, and I actually use it… I’m definitely saving this video. Some great suggestions to consider, I’ve been wanting a moonphase for quite a while
The orient star contemporary moomphase is really nice too! Similar texture as the zenith on its regular production models and fairly sporty too. In the metal, the finishing is amazing! I got my Limited MOP "nebula" dial one for the equivalent of 875USD and I'd say that the fit and finish is approaches gs levels (70-80% maybe??). Great time piece! Though some don't like the open heart and power reserve, I really like how they all come together on this piece. Worth checking out!! I also really like the white and black textured dial versions of this, but I gotta say I like the nebula is my fave
Teddy you don’t stop to amaze me with the great content. Good job to you and the team
Nice content Teddy. My favorite is the Master Calendar from JLC. The jumping date hand 15-16, is a hidden complication just to highlight the moon phase even more
Wow, Teddy. U are absolutely right. The Lange at the end is gorgeous. The contrast and negativ space is amazing. Thanks for your videos. Keep up your great work!!
12:13 So glad that you included the Rolex Cellini Moonphase watch. That one is my favorite out of the entire Rolex collection and so underrated. It's really the only watch in their Cellini line that is generally not available at authorized dealers and you need either be on a wait list or pay a little bit above retail in the secondary market to obtain one immediately.
My first and only moon phase was a Certina DS-8 Chrono Moon phase. It's only a quartz, but Swiss quality. Beautifully done with a many layered dial really makes it pop. But what really set it off for me was the moon phase calendar. It shows the day of the moon phase as well as the Qtr, first, full, last Qtr, and new moons which makes it really cool. I was surprised no perpetual calendars were on here. The Frederique Constant is on my list!
I'm very happy with my Glycine Combat Moonphase. I have the other version without numbers but with lume, and I can't recommend it enough. Super comfortable, great bracelet and solid, reliable movement. Great everyday watch.
Thank you Teddy, for taking the time to show these beautiful watches. I appreciate the information on them.
That Christopher Ward is absolutely the most beautiful Moonphase I have seen. Definitely something I am saving up for.
Perhaps my favorite they make.
Absolute beaut, next level craftsmanship especially for the price, on point size, that's got to be their baddest watch
If the CW is your style, the Arnold & Son HM Perpetual Moon would blow your mind.
I own one, and it's definitely worth it in my opinion! So cool.
@@porsche911c thanks!!
That Raymond Weil is gorgeous, and actually quite affordable - under $1,000 from some sellers. And 9.8 mm thin, which I want to see in a dress watch. The version with the grey-black dial is stunning - that one goes straight onto my wish list.
Crazy I just wrote on one of his recent vids that I just got a Raymond Weil moonphase. White face maestro and for the price it is a really really good value
have never clicked so fast!! Thanks for making an update of this video, Teddy
Great content and crisp editing as per usual Teddy 👌. I love the moonphase but with other watches in my collection it just wouldn't stay accurate as an automatic. I went for the Tidal Moonphase by Sekoni and love it.
I love and own the Longines Master Calendar Chrono for its Moon Phase, but also for all the other complications it comes with blended together in one beautifully designed elegance of a watch. It is a great value for the price for a classic moon phase watch.
What color
This is amazing! I was looking for a video by you about this yesterday
The Longines master collection chrono is my grail watch. Thanks for including it in this list
Great video. Love this complication and compare my watch depiction with the night sky all the time. I have one I haven't seen mentioned yet, the Xeric NASA Apollo 15 watch. GORGEOUS little watch that never ceases to make me smile!
The A.Longe at the end is a real beauty! very interesting style and design. Everything is well balance on the dial just perfect.
I really appreciate the value proposition of the Longines piece, and every time I see both the GO and the Lange, my heart skips a beat. Thank you, Teddy. Could you at some point do a deep dive into Longines’ dress watches for men? Again, thank you.
Thrilled to see this review. I love moonphases and either the Glashutte or the JLC will one day make the collection.
Love the moonphase on my Eterna watch. Very helpful in planning when I turn into a werewolf.
That Lange 1 moonphase is gorgeous. I like the G.O. for 1/4 the price, although the curve on the large date indicator, compared to the squared off windows of the Lange, may be something that I can't 'unsee'. Thanks for the review Teddy!
awesome video teddy, please make a video on best budget aesthetically looking open back case watches(especially manual wind). Keep going💯
As always. Very nice, informative and entertaining. I would like to make 2 remarks. Moon phase complications can be very useful in cultures that observe lunar calendar. I use it all the time for this purpose. Which brings the second point. I had surveyed the market 2 yrs back and chose the CW moonglow for practical and aesthetic points. The practical point being the ability to read the lunar date with ease.
Man I was waiting for this!
Another excellent vid. Many thanks.
Infomative. Thanks Teddy! I do like that Ball Engineer II
Hi Teddy, I am very late to the party but I immediately thought about the Glycine Moonphase and you showed it first . I have the Glycine in a dark blue and love it. I had a Airman but never adjusted to the 24 hour dial. This Glycine Moonphase I consider as the very best buy I got and it is in my rotation solidly along with two Seamasters and some other very popular watches. To top it off I purchased the Glycine new for $300 a couple years ago. I love your Ball moonphase. Thanks for your excellent presentation as always.
I like moon phase watches, but enjoy clocks with this contrivance much more. Thanks again for always compelling presentation and content.
Great channel I'm definitely on my way to a great start on this watch journey.
Some years ago I purchased RW Maestro Moonphase from a Belgium online store that had a sale, and still to this day that watch is my go to dress watch.
Nice video! I always wanted a moonphase, and I think you should also mention one of Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch with moonphase, just to be complete. Most of them were too big at 44 and 45mm for my taste, however. I am hoping Omega comes up with smaller (42mm or less) moonphase speedmaster soon!!
Two moonphase watches are my favorites. The shown JLC Master ultra thin moonphase and the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712. Especially the white gold version. This has such a cool and Understatement style.
Love my CW moonphase especially on the bracelet. Stunning piece
The Lange is awesome--especially the newer ones with the day/night (am/pm) indicator behind the moon. I also like the Omega moon phase watches that have Buzz's footprint on the moon. That is cool too. Great video on one of the coolest complications out there.
I swear you’re a mind reader! Have been dying for a video like this!
I bought the Glycine with blue dial about 2 months ago for 400$.
Really a good deal. Finishing is impressive for this level. You are right to say it wears smaller.
Thanks for this video Teddy. I’ve been interested in astrology for over a decade and knowing the moon phase at any time of the month is critical for certain types of astrology readings. I’ve looked at the Christopher Ward one for a while and I may pull the trigger on that one day.
i was waiting for this type of video
THIS IS THE VIDEO WE WERE ASKING FOR!!!
Killing it as usual !!!
The Lange 1 Moonphase is top of my list if I really decide to indulge into another haute horlogerie piece. Just about perfect. And I agree with Teddy that it's probably the pick of the entire Lange 1 collection.
Teddy I love your review and honest opinion. Keep up the good work mate. I have a Doxa watch, which I recently bought it there is not enough reviews on this.
JLC Ultra Thin Moon...One of my Grails for sure.
Awesome list!
That Glashutte👌🏾
Would be dope to see one for worldtimers!
I think my favorites are the Christopher Ward as well as Ball but not sure which model since Ball has more than one moon phase. I’m super excited I just ordered a Junghans Meister Chronoscope green dial from you!!!! Keep doing what you do Teddy!!!!
Had my eye on the Oris Artelier collection for a while, some very beautiful watches there.
My wife got me the Oris Artix Complication Moonphase (black dial on a black leather strap) for our wedding about 5 years back. I think that it's amazing value for money, and is just outstanding quality overall. :)
I have a Chr Ward Moon Glow on order, when it is on your wrist the 3D moon effect is stunning, really beautiful and you can get it with a complimentary 'bling" Milanese bracelet 😀
Thanks, for the video Teddy. Any insights or a review on the new Ball Moon Calendar? Thanks!
One gorgeous moonphase watch is the Christiaan van der Klaauw Real Moon Joure, which has the most accurate 3D moonphase in the world and only needs to be adjusted once in 11.000 years. :) It's a beautiful design but as you can imagine it is not cheap. Van der Klaauw watches specialise in astronomical complications.
My favorite is the 7751, I have one of Maurice Lacroix. It is a very sweet and nice watch, it is running in COSC. 30 years old and still like new.
PURRRFECT, was just looking for a moon phase watch!
Also love the Edox Les Vaouberts Moonphase 80505 - 42mm with Sellita movement - economical and great finishing. But of the above, the Meistersinger attracts me.
Love the Blue JLC Thin Moon. Very classy time piece.
Honestly, I fell in love with the Ball watch... it is such a beautiful watch, if it weren't for you Teddy, I would've never known that brand. I just made an offer for one exactly the same one you showed here. I find it stunningly beautiful and it makes me smile, that's what it all is about: it should make you smile :-)
I fell for the Omega Moonwatch Moonphase. Love it but was hard to choose between that and their Worldtimer. That one’s next on the list.
I’ve been struggling with the best moonphase. I’ve been trying to find the best one and I agree, the alange 1 is phenomenal. I tried it on in Vegas a few weeks back and fell in love with it. The runner up is the JLC master ultra thin. I’ll likely get the JLC, though the alange is fireeeeeee
Wonderful Collection.
I was going to ask for this video.
Wow that Constant watch blew me away. Absolutely fantastic looking watch. Might be saving up for that after I get my Ball
If you like that one, check out the Slimline version too.
great video! Id LOVE a similar thing for world timers!
If you live in a region that uses both solar and lunar calendars, I tell you it's damn satisfying to see a full moon on a lunar holiday and actually see the moon phase dial match the calendar.
LOVE THIS VIDEO ❤️
ALS, JLC blue dial (and cognac or similar colour leather strap), Glashutte...and that was before I even saw your list. So in other words, I think you killed it with your list.
I like the Raymond Weil Maestro moonphase watch. It looks gorgeous and is relatively affordable. The version with the dark dial (not featured on this video) looks stunning in my opinion.
I just purchased the Longines 1832 moon-phase in black. It’ll be a great dress watch!
Love this channel your knowledge of watches is outstanding 💯 want to get a nice watch off your site one day
My favorite has to be this JLC. Just simplicity, elegance, and a great brand. I really like moonphase, but find it difficult to wear without a suit.
One of my favorite watches is the newer Omega Speedmaster Moonphase, blue on blue strap 👌🏼
I have had the Citizen BU 0002-13P for 4 years and like it very much :).
JLC Master Control chronograph is my favorite moon phase watch. The dial symmetry is perfect.
Just picked up a Longness Master Collection Moonphase piece over the weekend, absolutely love it.
I also purchased the Longines white dial moon phase in Australia two weeks ago, it is the best complication I have. Cheers all.
Which one?
@@amgolfer3591 Hi, Longines Master Collection Chronograph Calendar/ moon phase - L2,6734,793. year 2019 as new... Cheers...
I really enjoy your channel and I have to admit those are some very beautiful moon phase watches. However, at the less pricey end of the market segment there is the Red Star mechanical chronograph with moon phase. Mine has worked flawlessly for the past couple of years. At the time of purchase it cost me under$250.00. An added quirky plus is that in most cases I'm pretty sure I'm the only Jarhead in the room rocking a P.R.C. mechanical moonphase with a sickle and hammer on the chronograph second hand and a Chairman Moa slogan (Serve the people) emblazoned across the bottom. I love this watch.
I’m more of a oyster perpetual and datejust kinda guy, but this moon phase rolex is absolutely stunning!
Should also consider the Frederique Constant slimline moonphase. Blue dial looks just as good as the JLC for a third of the price
I am about to purchase a moon phase second hand JLC master Ultra thin; eventually I’ll get the perpetual calendar one day. 😁
A couple watches I’m shocked not to see mentioned:
JLC Reverso Duoface Tribute Moon
Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonphase
I think I’ve even seen that JLC in one of your videos with Kevin. And then the moon phase on the moon watch? I know it’s not for everyone but I love the juxtaposition
Sir you have done videos on almost every thing about watches and each video is very informative my sincere request is you should do a video on Titan edge watches which I feel would be appreciated thanks god bless
wow this is so crazy I have got a glashütte panomaticlunar commenting in the mail as i writing this to you l watched all the videos including the one you did glashütte panomaticlunar thank you so much for doing such an awesome job and all your videos really appreciate it
When will you review the micro brand Serica 5303-01? It looks outstanding, would really appreaciate it!
Great content, keep it up!
Rolex Cellini Moonphase is my favorite. Thank you for your amazing videos.
Glad to see Ball made a mention. It's really cool irl
My favourites are the GO Panomatic Lunar in blue and the Schaumburg Watch Moon Meteorite. 🤩
The Cellini is the only Rolex I would ever buy but love the Glashutte the most, and it even has lume 😉
I love the richard lange with the moonphase on the back
I love the moonphase complication. I also need it as a healthcare worker, full-moon night shifts are to be avoided at all costs. I have been eyeing the Raymond Weil Moonphase for a while. Waiting to find the ideal excuse to pull the trigger.
Great videos Teddy. Regards from Malta.
Why do u need to avoid full moon shifts? Are u a Werewolf or sth? :D
Did you get one yet??? I just did and for the price man it’s hard to beat. Maestro white face with blue strap and hands
The watch with the one hand… that deserves its own video!
The Longines Master Collection Moonphase blue is gorgeous!!!
Thank you so much for this trip to find dream watches. The good size of men when they want to manufacture the best watches as possible. I like the ZENITH moon phase watch.
Master altrathin moonphase (silver dial). Thanks for the great video..
Dude I literally just got into watches 3 months ago, and I’m absolutely hooked! I’ve already planned out my collection from start to finish. I’ve even bought my first one, currently on the way! Thanks Teddy!
What's your first purchase? I love the enthusiasm. Welcome, my friend.
@@amgolfer3591 Hamilton Alpinist! Love the dial paired with the strap. Everything I’ve read about Hamilton is positive, and Teddy seems to think so too. I’m stoked!
@@_Aurelian_ I own Hamilton and never knew they had an "Alpinist" model? I own the Khaki Field and Teddy has praised thato one. There is the Seiko Alpinist of which I love for the price--great field watch. Hamilton makes amazing field watches as well.
@@amgolfer3591 Seiko Alpinist is what I had meant to say lol. I was thinking of another Hamilton model. You’re right, I was mistaken.
@@_Aurelian_ The Seiko Alpinist is a great watch. You will not be disappointed my friend. Hamilton is another great brand to look at along w/Longines, Squale, Sinn, Fortis, Tudor and Omega....so many others. Fortis, Tudor and Omega are a more expensive, but great timepieces. Woth saving for. I am learning a lot w/my journey as well. Don't settle for just anything and take your time and save for truly great timepieces that fit your budget. Good luck as this is a great and addictive hobby.....
Teddy- non watch related; where are you finding your shirts? Great casual styles in cool colors with a good fit.
Carry on with the solid watch lover content 🙏
The ball engineer 2 is Really really beautiful.. A work of art..
love the moonphase complication, i also agree that it is by far the best complication in terms of visual appeal. My fav moon phase was actually one not mentioned in this video, the ball trainmaster moon phase, in either blue or black. Beautiful watch from a brand rich in history and has a great movement that's well decorated for the price range in my opinion. I also love the unique crown and their distinctive seconds hand and of course their use of trillium. No moon phase really competes for me personally until we get to the $10k range for the likes of the a. lange and zohne ect.
FC watches are really nice. Picked up a blue slim line and that watch is so pretty.
Thanks for helping me decide what moon phase to buy next. JLC, but what color? They are all beautiful!
