re: moon phase by moderator on Mar 22,2004 11:31 AM First of all go to: www.watchnetwork.com/moonphase or click the moonphase button above to get the correct setting.
Basically, the rotation on the dial mimics the phases of the moon. Seeing the full moon or new moon is obvious, but the waxing and waning is where it gets confusing by simply looking at the moon outside.
