Your watch features a moon phase display, which, with the help
of a transmission, displays the time from one full moon to the
next with 28 days, 12 hours and 44 minutes as precisely as
possible. The moon phase display advances in wholeday incre
ments together with the calendar. As a full moon can occur at
any time of night or day, it may be that your watch displays the
calendar date of the full or new moon but that the moon phase
display has not reached this position due to the exact time of
the full or new moon. IWC sets the moon phase display so that
it displays the full and new moon precisely on as many dates in
the year as possible.

Setting when crossing time zones:
– When crossing time zones in an easterly direction, you should
simply set the time forward to the new local time.
– When crossing time zones in a westerly direction, you can set
the hands of your watch back to the actual time of day. When
doing this, however, you must not move back into the calen
dar's automatic switching phase, i.e. beyond 2 a.m. If this
situation occurs when you are travelling west, you should set
the local time of your destination before 10 p.m. You must
