Humankind has been obsessed with tracking the sun, the moon, and the stars for millennia. That’s why we have timepieces in the first place. While tracking the sun allowed our ancestors to follow the passing of time, days, and seasons, reading the phases of the moon was one of the only ways to track the passing of months. This makes the moonphase one of the oldest complications in the history of horology.
