How do I bid? Start here

Introduction

Having taken the independent watchmaking scene by storm, MING watches have become some of the most sought-after timepieces on the market, and the 37.05 Moonphase that we have here is no exception. Launched in 2021, it features a manual wind movement that asks its wearers to physically engage with their watch and embrace the allure of yesteryear. Featuring a subtle moonphase and date indicator at 6 o’clock on its stunning blue-to-black mirror dial, the 37.05 is a timepiece whose aesthetic is distinctly unique, all while speaking to Ming’s typical design language thanks to the layout of its luminescent material. Made of stainless steel and featuring the same 38mm case design as so many of Ming’s timepieces that have come before it, the 37.05 will have a familiar presence on the wrist of any Ming collector with its pagoda lugs and pronounced crown filling the wrist nicely.

Boasting a 38mm diameter and standing just under 12mm tall, the 37.05 is an exceptionally comfortable watch, with its pagoda lugs curving down the watch and allowing the strap to follow their path and effortlessly wrap around the wrist.
