Perpetual calendar with astronomical moonphase. Power reserve is 5 days. Several technical aspects make this a very interesting watch to collect; first of all a legible perpetual calendar is something not talked about more often enough. Many perpetual calendar on the market are simply impossible to read; this DB17 is very legible with a simplistic approach in dial design.
