What to know

Cyma’s Grand Maestro The Chess Moonphase expands the collection with an automatic chronograph, triple calendar and lunar display. Monochrome reports three standard dial combinations—midnight blue, champagne with black, and silver-white—inside a 43.5mm steel case. A layered bezel develops the chess-inspired design, while a central pointer indicates the date around the dial.

The ETA 7751 automatic movement combines day, month and date with a chronograph, 24-hour indication and moon phase. Reported power reserve is 48 hours and water resistance is 100 metres. The standard references W02-00818-001, -002 and -003 are listed at US$4,515 on steel bracelets. Cyma’s official site identifies The Chess within Grand Maestro; exact product data and photography still require completion before editorial approval.
