Lobinni Sun Moon Rose Gold Watch

I introduced one Lobinni watch on my blog before, it is a watch that has several features such as power reserve indicator and day&night indicator, the day&night indicator looks like a moon phase but it is not, like this Lobinni watch I am going to introduce today, there is also an indicator at 6 o’clock that looks like moon phase, but it just shows the sun and moon, and it is also a time display of 24 hours. Actually a watch with real moon phase function is highly welcomed in watch industry, do you know the Jaeger LeCoultre Ultra Thin Moon Phase? I think no people won’t like this watch, however, it is very expensive, and I have not seen any alternatives of this moon phase watch in China, absolutely except the replica.

I like this Lobinni watch, probably because of this sun moon indicator that looks like the moon phase, but most importantly its rose gold color and the brown leather band make the watch look very luxury. The watch has a case measured in 40.5mm in diameter, the thickness is about 11.5mm, the case is polished with a thin round bezel, it is made with stainless steel and has rose gold plated, not solid rose gold, the gold absolutely will fade, but it won’t fade within one year. The logo engraving on the crown is beautifully finished.

The dial is under protection of a sapphire crystal, it has a silver white color, there are black printings of LOBINNI ENGRAVERS at 12 o’clock, not sure why they use the word ‘Engravers’ under the brand name, it does not have a special meaning. Hour markers are bar-shaped, the markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 have lume material applied on the center. Like I mentioned above, the round indicator at 6 o’clock shows sun and moon, there is also a small second hand inside pointing at current hour time. Actually I do not like the style of these hour markers, the triangle markers like the JL Master seem to be more suitable for such watch.

The brown leather band is not made with genuine alligator leather, but made with calfskin leather and has alligator patterns on the surface, the band feels a bit stiff, but it is perfectly in line with the rose gold tone of the watch.

Lobinni “Moon Phase” Power Reserve Watch Review

Lobinni Stainless Steel Watch

Do you know Lobinni? I read the brand story on its website and know it is registered in the Switzerland, is this true? I doubt it, a few watch brands in China have such a false story, claiming that they are made in a town of the Switzerland, actually they are just common watches made in China, and their movements are either from China or Japan, not C.O.S.C certified. However, I have seen many positive reviews about Lobinni, some doubt the brand’s origin but still like the quality of their watches, which are solid made with real functions. This is my first Lobinni watch, which looks classic on stainless steel case and black leather band, the dial design also makes it look a bit complicated but very easy to read. I have several dress watch with power reserve feature, except Parnis, this Lobinni is my most favorite.

The watch is slightly similar to a watch made by Jaeger LeCoultre, I do not know its name, but its dial certainly refers to the design of that Jaeger watch. Stainless steel case, silver dial and black leather strap, this is a very classic combination, every brand has such type of a dress watch in their product line.

The watch has a stainless steel case with a diameter of 41mm, which is not too big or too small, a suitable size for most wrist, the case thickness is 11.5mm, which can not be called ultra-thin, but it is already very thin for a mechanical watch with multiple functions. The case and round bezel are polished, the lugs have graceful arched design that make the watch fit your hand in a more comfortable way, the screw-down crown is onion-shaped and features a Lobinni logo on the frontal face, which is a “L” letter in a flower. The crown is designed to have a big size so that it will be much easier for the wearer to operate.

The white grid dial is the main point. The entire face has a slope design to show hour markers and minute scales, there are also several indicators in 3D to display different functions of the watch. First, the fan-shaped indicator positioned between 10 o’clock and 11 o’clock shows you the remaining power reserve energy, once the watch fully winded, the small hand will point at “40”. The day and night is displayed through the arch-shaped indicator at 2 o’clock, while the date is shown at 6 o’clock. All hour markers have a three-dimensional design, they have multiple cutting face, just like the central hour hand and minute hand. On the case, there are two small buttons up and under the crown, the one up the crown is to set day&night display, the button below the crown is set to adjust date.

The case back is a see-through sapphire crystal that shows an automatic movement in front of your eyes, it has beautiful decoration on the auto rotor and movement plates. Based on my experience, this is a very common Chinese movement that has a power reserve of about 38 hours once being fully winded. The black genuine leather band is made with calfskin leather that is soft and durable, it is fitted with a deployant clasp in stainless steel. The watch also has a rose gold version. Til now, the watch still works fine, no accuracy issue, 8 seconds faster each day is not a problem.
