Hey guys,
I've been considering buying the C1 Moonglow since it was announced a few months back. interested to here what you guys thinks of this model? Not that it would necessarily influence my decision, just like to get feedback
Only hands-on video i found was on the Oracle Time YouTube channel here:

The lume looks cool but think the moon maybe be a bit overpowering!
New C1 Moonglow
Re: New C1 Moonglow
I saw the Moon Glow in the flesh at the Bristol get together, it is lovely, and if it was a little cheaper think I would seriously consider it. Really beautiful watch in my opinion, and the lume is gorgeous... I am heading down to show room next weekend with view to buying the C60 trident 600 GMT in blue... the lower price point makes it viable for me.

Re: New C1 Moonglow
My problem with the moonglow is there is only 1 moon (here on Earth anyway) yet the choice of smoked semi-transparent dial shows two. I think they could have come up with something more effective.

Agreed. The concept is terrific, but the two moons kill it for me.

Re: New C1 Moonglow
I’ve had my Moonglow for a couple of weeks , what I have noticed is that the smoke dial in bright light & at certain angles looks more like a mirror & therefore takes away the effect of the “second “ moon , which is disappointing- to this wearer!
Also haven’t been able to see the luminous Moonglow effect as yet - perhaps I’m not wearing it in the right conditions

Re: New C1 Moonglow
Well, the Moonglow manual recommends to be flatly floating in orbit during a lunar eclipse to capture full power of the lume. Might want to give it a shot sometime.
