Ulysses Nardin Astrolabium G. Galilei WatchThe Astrolabe was developed by ancient astronomers to measure the altitude and direction of celestial bodies over the horizon, calculate the seasons, the movements of the zodiac and to foretell eclipses.
This highly complex instrument indicates the position of the sun, the moon and the stars in the sky at any given hour as seen from Earth. It also indicates sunrise and sunset, dawn and dusk, moon phases, moonrise
and moonset, eclipses of sun and moon, the month and the day of the week. |
