The timepiece is available in two variations - one is Classic Moon Silver and the other is Classic Moon Blue. Both the iterations feature a chemin de fer minute track, 31 date numerals in a classic font on the dial periphery, which is set via the a corrector on case located at 10 o’clock, Roman and baton hour markers, and slender ruthenium-treated white gold versions of the Assegai-shaped hands.

There are two beveled windows below 12 o’clock for weekdays and month at left and right respectively. The highlight of the dial and the brand’s debuting complication - the moonphase indication, designed in Aventurine glass and a translucent enamel, is located at 6 o'clock, inside the slightly expanded small seconds display. The moonphase is adjusted via a discreet flush fitted corrector on the case between 8 and 9 o’clock.

Powering the timepieces is the new redesigned automatic calibre LF126.02, which is inspired by the brand’s previous annual calendar movement LF126.01. The new calibre boasts a power reserve of about 80-hours—the power reserve can be seen via the caseback. The Classic Moon Blue model is finished with a hand-sewn gray Nubuck leather with stainless steel pin buckle, while the Classic Moon Silver is completed with a brown calf leather with 18K/750 5N red gold pin buckle.
