Neografic
The moon is a symbol of cycles and continual renewal (new moon, full moon, etc.). "Neo" symbolizes the cyclical and perpetually renewed nature of the lunar phases, embodying the idea of the new moon that always returns, marking the beginning of a new cycle. "Neo" is also associated with duality (day/night, light/dark) and transitions marking the passage between two states, between shadow and light.
Astral Complications
Day/night function
Progressive indication over a 24-hour cycle, showing day and night in succession, making it possible to distinguish whether the watch is displaying 3:00 a.m. or 3:00 p.m.
Moon phases
A watch complication that displays the different phases of the moon on the dial which reproduces the lunar cycle by visually indicating the waxing and waning phases of the moon, from the new moon to the full moon, including the first quarter and the last quarter.
Neografic
Moon phase watch, inspired by a White Star model created in 1953.
The highly refined dial features the moon phases coated with Super-LumiNova® that glows at night, providing a nitescent light to the moon's cycles, a luminescence that is also found on the day/night function, giving the whole a remarkable aesthetic and charm. The elegance of this model is not limited to its functionality, it has also been designed to delicately hug women's wrists.
Case and crown
With initial training in jewelry, the owner of White Star has taken care to give the Neografic model an aesthetic authenticity evoking the 1950s, while adding a personal and resolutely contemporary touch, similar to our Diagrafic model.
The crown positioned at 2 o'clock further emphasizes the contemporaneity of this unique model.
Date display
Asserting an undeniable freedom of tone, we have chosen to place the date display at 2:00, adopting a horizontal display specifically designed to reinforce the aesthetic balance of the model. This design is enhanced by a round-shaped window, an unusual feature in the 1950s, but proposed by White Star in 1958.
The horns
The small facet located at the upper corner of the horns has become a distinctive symbol of White Star's new aesthetic identity, embodying timeless elegance. It highlights the remarkable beauty of the models thanks to taut and refined lines, highlighted by the play of light on the polished and satin-finished surfaces.
Day/night function
At the rhythm of the 24 hours, this night-time luminous function alternates between day and night, revealing the essence of time at a glance. It magnifies the moon phase complication and envelops the watch in a luminous and magical aura.
Moon phases
Coated with phosphorescent Super-LumiNova®, the moons and stars come to life at night, revealing the lunar cycles in a luminescent dance. This magical rotation floods the watch face with a soft, magical light, creating a captivating ambiance.
904L stainless steel
High-performance 904L stainless steel is distinguished by its unique composition, enriched with chromium, molybdenum, nickel and copper, which makes it exceptionally resistant to corrosion, oxidation, acids and shocks. Initially developed for diving equipment and materials that must withstand immersion in seawater, this alloy won over the Rolex brand in the 1980s due to its qualities that are far superior to other alloys. Its unique hardness allows it to withstand extreme conditions, requiring specific machining and manufacturing methods to shape it correctly. Visually, 904L steel is characterized by a superb, ultra-lustrous polished finish that ages beautifully. Although all our watches are designed to withstand the wear and tear of time, our White Star timepieces are made from 904L stainless steel, which further increases their robustness, reliability and brilliance.
