Designed by Juan C. Restrepo, the 'Apollo' Chronometer Watch features a naturalistic design touch that focuses on the moon. Rather than featuring a chronometer that will detail minutes, seconds or a stopwatch, the 'Apollo' watch depicts the current phase of the moon.
A beautiful timepiece that helps to offer guidance with celestial happenings, the 'Apollo' Chronometer Watch operates like a traditional watch by showing the time in a uniform manner. Behind the hands, the moon is shown in the current phase ranging from waxing crescent, to new moon. This information can be used as a way to offer astronomers a constant reminder of the moon phase or even just as a design aesthetic for those who are spiritually connected with the moon.
