Herbelin Inspiration Automatic 38mm Moon Phase Watch 2847P08GR

The Watch

The majestic Inspiration Automatic Moon Phase Watch embodies the perfect union of watchmaking tradition and modernity. Its round case in 316L stainless steel with yellow gold PVD coating features a 38 mm diameter and a refined thickness of 11.65 mm. This choice of materials gives the watch not only exceptional robustness but also a magnificent polished finish that catches the light brilliantly. The case weight, a subtle 60 g, ensures comfortable all-day wear - true to the spirit of French elegance. Every detail has been crafted to captivate, from the harmonious curves to the polished finish and the transparent caseback that reveals the full beauty of the inner mechanism.

The Dial

The dial of this watch is a true tribute to traditional craftsmanship, with a finely executed guilloché and sunray finish. In a silver tone, it showcases majestic Roman numerals that stand out elegantly against the refined background. The slender, precise hands sweep across the dial like dancers, displaying seconds, minutes, and hours with remarkable clarity. A discreet date window sits near 3 o'clock, seamlessly integrated into the overall aesthetic. At center stage, the moon phase complication at 6 o'clock brings a poetic and sophisticated dimension, capturing the magic of the night sky and delivering an unforgettable visual experience.

The Movement

At the heart of this fascinating timepiece beats a Swiss automatic movement by Sellita, the SW200-1 caliber. A benchmark for precision and durability, it delivers an impressive power reserve of 41 hours. Beating at 28,800 A/h (4 Hz), this caliber achieves remarkable fluidity and accuracy. The oscillating weight, visible through the transparent caseback, adds a mesmerizing visual depth - making every glance at the watch an experience in itself.

The Strap

This watch's strap is designed to combine style and comfort, crafted in brown bovine leather with an alligator pattern. It features topstitching that accentuates its classic character and ensures lasting durability. The look is completed by a pin buckle in yellow gold PVD stainless steel, providing a secure and elegant closure.

Water Resistance

While this watch's primary purpose is refined style, it doesn't skimp on technical capability - it boasts 3 ATM water resistance. This means it can handle light splashes such as rain, though it is not designed for prolonged submersion.
