A complication far more intricate and impressive than a standard perpetual calendar, this piece features a series of sub-dials and hands that display various aspects of the Chinese calendar, including:
– A 12-year zodiac cycle (displayed through a dragon motif)
– A 10-year cycle (represented by the Five Elements)
– A 12-month lunar cycle (indicated by a moon phase display)
– A 29.5-day lunar month cycle (tracked by a leap month indicator)
– A 24-hour day-night indicator
The Traditional Chinese Calendar is based on a lunisolar system, combining both lunar and solar cycles. The watch’s masterfully finished caliber 3638(that boasts an impressive 8 day power reserve)takes into account the varying lengths of the lunar months and accurately displays the corresponding information.
