This is a moon dial I guess?

It could be a good name for it!

I recall another different SMDV called a space dial, there could be an intentional small side theme

I was quite tempted by this one that sold at auction recently. Arrowhead markers, crosshairs and a textured inner dial and non-textured outer portion.

Yeah it's not safe to hang out around here too much. I have seen some of these dials only once or twice, so some of these make for pretty challenging targets though.

Thanks! They really do nice work. In addition to refinishing the case, they performed a full movement service, installed a correct crown and crystal, replated and relumed the hands, and switched out the old strap and buckle for new ones that I supplied.

 

[PlainVanilla]

The work on the case looks very well done!
