Andersen Geneve Kamar Moonphase Watch

Time Zone highlights another watch that will be shown off at Baselworld by Andersen Geneve. The Kamar moonphase watch shows the phase of the moon with one gleaming mother-of-pearl disc that shows a dark and light moon and moves one notch forward at noon and midnight. It is has a 45mm case available in 18K white or rose gold with front and back sapphire crystals. It uses an automatic caliber A574 (base F. Piguet 1150) movement with a 70 hour power reserve.The dial is engine-turned 22K blue gold . Like the last watch from Andersen we profiled, it earns major points for beauty (I love the blue gold dial) but suffers a bit on the readability side.

Andersen Geneve Grande Jour et Nuit Watch

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

Andersen Geneve makes watches that are always high on beauty but low on readability. For this year's Baselworld show, Sven Andersen is breaking out the Grande Jour et Nuit, a new version of the original which debuted six years ago. It has a hand-wound caliber A573 (base Frederic Piguet) movement. According to Time Zone, the hour hand points to the day with its longer end and the night with its short end and jumps to the following hour when the minute hand has performed a full revolution of the dial. It comes in 18K white or rose gold, measures 44mm and has double sapphire crystals. The dial is 22kt blue gold with tapasserie finish. It's lovely but I have no idea what time it is showing.
