The back indicates the nocturnal sky, the phases and orbit of the moon, and sidereal time.The Sky Moon Tourbillon´s biggest design challenges were brought about by the arrangement of the intricate mechanisms implemented within the small case of the wristwatch. The painstaking craftsmanship that this horological masterpiece necessitates limits its production output to a few pieces per year.The tourbillon is a small rotating carriage that accommodates the escapement, balance wheel and balance spring, and revolves about its axis once a minute to constantly offset the effects of gravity on the oscillation frequency of thedelicate spring.An additional complexity is the fact that the tourbillon, the balance wheel and the fourth wheel are arranged on one axis.Minute repeater: the resonant sounds with which the minute repeater indicates the time are mesmerizing, striking the hours, quarter-hours and minutes in a way never before implemented in a wristwatch; this is attributable to the two so-called cathedral gongs that produce a rich and particularly long-lasting reverberation.This is due to the special steel alloy Patek Philippe helped to develop, as well as their extraordinary length: both gongs are almost two movement circumferences longThe Sky Chart A celestial chart requires a certain amount of space in which to portray the heavenly bodies with sufficiently high resolution.The syncopation of complex celestial functions is handled by a patented mechanism of enormous intricacy. Out of more than 25 trillion gear train reduction ratios, Patek Philippe’s engineers found the one that achieves the greatest possible accuracy for all displays combined.A 24-hour hour scale with Arabic numerals is used to indicate sidereal time with white hands.Sidereal time is based upon the period of a complete rotation of the earth about its axis with reference to a hypothetical point in the celestial sphere known as the first point of Aries or the vernal equinox.The Sky Moon Tourbillon deviates 0.088 seconds per sidereal day.Phases of the moon: A deep blue sapphire crystal disc reveals the moon phases in a small round aperture.The moon phases are the progression of visible changes in the moon’s appearance during its orbit around the Earth (new moon, waxing moon, half moon, full moon, waning moon). Orbit of the moon: A deep blue sapphire crystal disc emulates the angular motion of the moonIn this mechanism, the progression of the lunar phase is continuous, whilst in current mechanisms this is done in jumps.The moon phase is accurate to 6.51 seconds per lunation, the average duration of which is 29 days, 12 Gentlemen Patek Philippe replicasHomepagePatek Philippe Site
