Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Moneta name comes from the Roman goddess on whose temple steps coins were minted — the fluted edge of ancient currency reappears here on the inner bezel, a small piece of etymology worked into metal rather than left to marketing copy. At 37mm with a 42mm lug-to-lug, this sits genuinely between sizes in the best sense: substantial enough to read against a shirt cuff, compact enough that the brown calfskin strap does not feel overwhelmed by the case above it. The moonphase at six o'clock is the kind of complication that earns its place on a quartz movement — it needs no winding correction for years at a stretch, and the silver sunray dial gives it room to catch light without competing with it.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's, though at 37mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
Who are Goldsmiths?
Goldsmiths has been selling watches in Britain since 1778 and is part of the Watches of Switzerland Group, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. They are an authorised dealer, so a watch comes with the manufacturer’s own warranty.
