The Watch
Here we have a 2022 Ming 37.05 Moonphase Manually Wound with a 38mm brushed stainless steel case; the distinctive thick flared scalloped lugs have a lug-to-lug length of 45mm and a case thickness of 12mm for an impressive wrist presence. On the right side, is a signed crown. The brushed smooth bezel holds a domed sapphire crystal AR coated on both sides; the multi-layered dial consists of a metal layer with a tight spiral pattern that has a dynamic gradient from midnight blue to black, as seen in the night sky. The floating long-hour marks are laser etched to a sapphire layer and inlaid with HyCeram ceramic Super-LumiNova, Ming's hands are infilled this time round and sit majestically above the cut-out Moonphase disc just underneath, which has a luminance that moves in increments until it reaches a full moon and creates a circle, and at 6 o’clock a date window completes this stunning mesmerising dial. On the reverse a screwed-down exhibition case back, inside a manually wound Sellita for MING 288.M1. This modified movement by Schwarz-Etienne has incredible finishing with matte-blasted skeletonised components, anthracite-plating, and Rhodium-brushed accents, making this watch magical on both sides. The watch comes fitted on its 20mm Black barenia leather strap by Jean Rousseau Paris with a keeperless signed buckle with micro-adjustment by moving the spring bar that holds the buckle pin up or down. The watch also comes with its Ming presentation box and paperwork, plus a handmade leather travel pouch by Studio Koji Sato.
Personal Note
The Ming 37.05 is beautifully executed both front and back, from the dial and moonphase to the Sellita movement by Schwarz-Etienne which has incredible finishing with matte-blasted skeletonised components, anthracite-plating, and Rhodium-brushed accents. These were trading at crazy prices when first released, now they can be picked up for a relative bargain for what you get in today's market. I would not hesitate to add this to your collection today!
