The main complication featured on the Black Moon is a lunar cycle that makes use of fragments of two lunar meteorites. The new moon is made from the dark hued Dhofar 457 circled in red for greater readability. The full moon is cut from the lighter Gadamis 005 meteorite. The current lunar phase is read at three o'clock, where the index is framed in red. The lunar display is driven by an astronomical moon complication whose key component is a 135 tooth gear that ensures precision. Deviation is one day in 122 years.
