Aside from the date, day, month and year in four digits, the Portuguese Perpetual Calendar also indicates the number of days remaining until the next full moon. The display showing its course and featuring mirror images of the moon in the northern and southern hemispheres deviates from the moon’s actual progress by just 12 seconds in one lunar period. The striking colour combination found in the new version in white gold will increase its attraction to watch lovers and stargazers: the rhodium-plated moon-phase indicator discs wax and wane thanks to a midnight-blue cut-out display in a dial also finished in midnight blue. In the model with the red gold case, the warm tone provides a pleasing contrast to the black dial.
