“Top of the line quality and materials, It looks even better in person than in pictures, really interactive, different but really elegant at the same time! The watch really feels like looking at the stars! I love it!”
Hey Luis! Glad to hear you're still enjoying that Moonphase! Be on the lookout for our Apollo 15 campaign through Kickstarter in July. I think you'll enjoy the new models!
“This was a gift for my husband for his 30th birthday. He collects watches and is fascinated by space. He loved it and has been wearing it for the past week with both formal wear and with casual clothing.
It really looks amazing (exactly as in the pictures shown on the website!), we are both impressed with the concept, the design, the quality and my husband also really likes how it feels on his wrist.
The only downside is that he can't know for sure the exact time in the sense of minutes - it's usually a gap of about 5 minutes between the actual time and what he is able to read using this watch. In the end... does it even really matter though?! :)”
“IMPOSSIBLE to see the date display on this watch which, for some unknown, stupid reason, appears to be in black on black microprint, invisible to anyone over the age of 20. Add to that the fact that the moon-phases were equally hard to see. And the glare from the crystal - combined with the black-on-back micro-printing - makes the watch nothing more than a $300A complete and total waste of my money.”
“I recently found out about Xeric and decided to buy this wonderful watch.
The design is unique, but at the same time elegant and beautiful. I was indecisive between the NASA Trappist and this.
Both are extraordinary design watches. I went for the Moonphase because I preferred this dial the most. When the stars move they give a depth and a 3d effect. And the grid symbolizing the time space completes the whole design.
I couldn't have enjoyed it more. I still do. And reading the time is just a matter of use. After a couple of hours is very simple. Be mindful though, that wearing this watch isn't about the time only. It's the emotion, the thought of space. And that one day we might me able to travel through time and space.
Apart from how I feel when I wear this watch, I would like also to emphasize that it is very original and modern, looks very good to the eye and it is a stylish item that everyone can enjoy.
Don't think too much acquiring one of Xeric's watches. It is a brand that is here to stay. Xeric is absolutely one of my favorite brands from now on.”
“Bought this watch as a gift for someone. I must say that although the pictures are great on the website, it still is way better looking in person. It truly is a beautiful watch.”
“Yes - it's unique. Yes - it's special and kind of masterpiece, especially for enthusiasts of astronautics. I really love it! But - that kind of love with struggles... :(
The greatest problem - "Super Lumi Nova". Seriously? Maby my watch is defective but it doesn't glow in the dark at all. In fact - my Oris from 1973 lights much, much brighter than that "super luminova". Also leads of my Festina 6761 glows much brighter... Very shame - without bright glowing that watch is almost unusable without daylight or powerful artifical lighting.
Second problem is - that is not kind of watch you can use to easy reading the time - but that's something I can stand.
Summarizing, if that "super luminova" which almost doesn't glow even just after very sunny day is only problem of my watch, please XERIC contact with me to fix the problem (Watch was founded on Kickstarter). If it is to be like that - only 3 stars from me, despite all the charm of this small masterpiece :(
PS
I really, really hope so new version T-Rappist NASA will be much brighter in the dark - because of my Early Bird pledge... For that reason I choose "Apollo 11" version - to have a chance to use it after sunset...”
“I love the piece -
An interesting puzzle for a watch
However if we could make the glow in the dark have an actual light that could be switched on or automatically glow in the dark without using light to spark the glow”
