Moon Phases and Moon Age
The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. During each cycle, the Moon appears to wax and
wane as the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes. The greater the angular distance
between the Moon and the Sun,* the more we see illuminated.
* The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible from the Earth.
See “Northern Hemisphere View or Southern Hemisphere View Moon Phase” (page E-49).
Your watch shows the Moon phase and Moon age at noon of a date, regardless of the time displayed
by the watch.
The Moon phase is based on the northern hemisphere view, with the Moon to the south. Note that the
Moon phase form will be reversed in the case of the southern hemisphere view (Moon to the north) or in
the vicinity of the equator.
The margin for error of the Moon age is ±1 day.
The Moon Phase and Moon Age of the watch’s Home City are shown, even if the watch is in the World
Time Mode.
If Moon Graph indication is not correct, check the Timekeeping Mode time and date settings, and the
Home City setting.
