In the 16th century monks and alchemists , who were to make a precious stone for the pope which links heaven and earth, invented the gold stone. Its name comes from the fact that it shines like gold and begins to flow at high temperatures.This dial made of goldstone is absolutely gorgeous and really pops with the hand engraved rose colored moon.

This moonphase display is so accurate that it is only off by one day ever 122 years! The case is very comfortable with its downward curving lugs and recessed crown.
