- The Challenger -
Black Luna Fullcalender Chronograph with Moonphase

Introduction
Torsten Nagengast Timepieces (TNT) announced to produce a very special,limited edition of the latest Challenger model: The LUNA.

TNT requested FORaSEC to team up again and handle the sales and customer service for this project (like we do for the Watchuseek Rattrapante edition of the Challenger).

We are pleased to say that production of samples has already been started. Realistically we could have the watches ready before the end of March 2014. Demand will decide

The watch

The Triple calendar and the moon phase complication are custom made and have never been produced by Valjoux or ETA themselves in this combination.
The Moon will be filled with Super Luminova for maximum visibility. Fixed lugs and the coin-edge case body give the watch a nice vintage feeling.

The unique movement enables an incredible number of functions: Day and month display, date, chronograph function and a fantastic LUMINOVA MOON PHASE!
We will limit the LUNA to only 85 pieces worldwide. Still, we will give the choice of three different dial colors to suit everybody’s taste: black, blueberry or silver.

if we will pull the trigger on production. We decided to keep the price at a very decent € 1.198,- (€ 1.450,- incl. EU V.A.T.), as we believe our direct sales structure should benefit the customer as much as possible. A price level unheard of for this type of quality Valjoux-based complication.
