I mean let's face it. There are far more important and useful complications on a watch than the moonphase, but few look cooler on the dial imho. Too bad Rolex didn't add it to the SkyD. Would have made the watch even better! Forgive me crude mock up...

I know the latest Cellini model has a moonphase, but any previous Rolex models? (sorry Google is your friend...references 6062 and 8171)

Too busy

Does look pretty busy. Try it with the Moonphase dial from the Cellini. I think it’d fit in the middle of the date wheel nicely. Plus it is blue background so will match.

It’s, interesting, haha. Not too sure about the moonphase. The SkyD is one of the rare few watches which can pull off sport / dress watch and has the right dial and complications.

Not that one, but a more subtle iteration would be interesting, although anything that potentially increases case thickness could tip it over the edge. As a DJ that has eaten one too many pies, the Sky Dweller just about pulls it off at its present thickness. On the same track, the date wheel would need to be above it. It is more recessed than on any other date model. As it is, you have a comparatively narrow angle of clear view through the cyclops. It's too recessed for a sideways glance.
