Background

My fascination with watches began in early 2018, and I have been captivated by the charm and elegance of the moon phase complication ever since. Inspired by this passion, I set out to create an app that combines the beauty of traditional horology with the capabilities of modern technology. With Beautiful Moon, I aim to bring the traditional moon phase indicator to the Apple Watch, offering a timeless and romantic experience. The app was officially released in March 2025.
