Louis Moinet's Magistralis: Wear the moon

November 2008


Who will be the first man to wear the moon on his wrist?
Louis Moinet answers this question with “Magistralis”
Louis Moinet is the world’s first and only brand to create a watch featuring an authentic piece of the moon. This 2000 year-old lunar meteorite is used for the moon-phase display of the hundred-year old and extremely sophisticated complication movement (including minute repeater, perpetual calendar and single-pusher chronograph functions) powering the Magistralis.

The incredibly complex 5N rose gold and 3N case is composed of 90 different parts, while the presentation box is highly creative in its own right: Louis Moinet introduces the first musical instrument for watches thanks to the watch stand which serves to amplify the sound of the repeater mechanism. Finally, an original copy of Louis Moinet’s famous TraitÉ d’Horlogerie sets the final touch to the fascinating history of this watch.

Magistralis is an extraordinary watch representing the expert craftsmanship of the time-honoured art of Haute Horlogerie. It is one of a kind, unlike any other, and will never be repeated.
