Auguste Reymond Magellan Orbital Moon Q44: Navigating by the Stars

Some men measure time; others navigate it. Therefore Maison Auguste Reymond signs the Auguste Reymond Magellan Orbital Moon Q44, a 44 mm instrument in steel and fluted ceramic. Moreover, its tri-compax dial gathers hours, minutes, seconds, day, date and orbital moonphase. Availability opens in September 2026.

Auguste Reymond Magellan Orbital Moon Q44: Astronomy as an Instrument

Ferdinand Magellan navigated by quadrant and astrolabe. Reading the sky meant survival then, not culture. Auguste Reymond transposes that rigour onto the wrist. Therefore the Q44 becomes a bridge between cartography and the cosmos, following the Greek triad of Chronos, Kairos and Aion.

A tri-compax reading of time

The steel case measures 10.80 mm thick and spans 51.70 mm from horn to horn. Its screwed-in crown and fluted ceramic bezel answer demanding conditions. Meanwhile, anti-reflective sapphire protects a sunray dial in silver, blue or black. At 3 o’clock, an arrow-tipped hand marks the date. Opposite, at 9 o’clock, a second arrow gives the day. Then, at 6 o’clock, the moon orbits the Earth across a black disc.

Swiss precision on every horizon

A Swiss Made quartz movement drives the display of the Auguste Reymond Magellan Orbital Moon Q44. Water resistance reaches 100 metres, so the watch follows you well beyond the city. Moreover, the solid case back carries the Reymond family coat of arms, a reminder of roots reaching to 1898. Each link of the steel bracelet gathers seven distinct elements; as a result, the articulation follows your wrist rather than fighting it. Finally, a double swing folding clasp closes the whole.

Six references open the series, in full steel or two-tone, from CHF 1,250.
