Mission Moon I is the first chapter of our lunar chronograph saga. Built around a modified Valjoux 7751 calibre, it tracks hours, minutes, seconds, date, day, month and a moonphase display — the kind of mechanical wonder that makes quartz look like a digital watch from a cereal box. The 40 mm stainless-steel case is coin‑edged and polished like a nautical sextant; the silvered dial uses rhodium-plated appliques and blued-steel hands to catch light like a waxing moon. Assembled and hand‑regulated in our Maryland atelier, each piece is numbered and accompanied by engraved caseback art referencing the Apollo era. Retired long ago, Mission Moon I is already a collector’s favorite — a reliable tool watch with the soul of a pocket observatory.
