A rolex I saw once, I need the model name

It was very shiny and had sort of a half moon thing that moved around the face of the watch. i think the watch was gold and maybe green but that could be completely wrong. Any idea?

One of these maybe? I don't know the ref # but it's very rare.

Rolex did have a Triple Calendar Moonphase ref 6062, watch back in the late 50's.

Today, they are worth the same as a nice house.

i did not mean half moon like that. there is like a metal piece, which physically moves on the face of the watch. it spins around. i think the shape is sort of like a banana/half moon but maybe not.

you have the watch big hand and small hand, then between that and the glass of the watch face there is a metal piece which spins around.

Ok, sorry to bother you with the pictures of the "wrong" watch.

my question is why does Rolex feel the need to make the moon look pissed off?

LOL. Or he looks like he is very suspicious of those little stars on either side of him.

Well that moon phase wheel physically moves under the dial.
