LIP Watch: Mach 2000 Mini Moon 671163

Lip: the Mach 2000 Mini Moon 671163, a French design icon entirely clad in steel

The Lip Mach 2000 Mini Moon 671163 revisits the asymmetrical aesthetic imagined by French designer Roger Tallon in an entirely silver-colored version. The Mach 2000 Mini Moon thus adopts a more sober and versatile appearance, while retaining the unique character of the Mach 2000 collection.

The Mach 2000 Mini Moon features an asymmetrical case made of polished 316L stainless steel, measuring 30 × 28 mm. Its half-moon shape frees the wrist joint and breaks with traditional round or rectangular architectures. With a thickness of 7 mm, a lug width of 14 mm, and a weight of 54 grams, the Mach 2000 Mini Moon maintains proportions suited for slender wrists.

The silver sunray dial of the Mach 2000 Mini Moon captures the light while maintaining a minimalist composition. The black square indices structure the display, while the black hour hand creates a graphic contrast with the silver-colored minute and second hands. This chromatic combination reinforces the visual identity of the Mach 2000 Mini Moon without compromising its readability.

The Mach 2000 Mini Moon is protected by a flat mineral crystal. Its pressed stainless steel case back and push-pull crown complete a deliberately slim construction. Water-resistant to 30 meters, the Mach 2000 Mini Moon resists splashes and accidental contact with water, but is not designed for swimming or water activities.

The Mach 2000 Mini Moon is powered by the Swiss Ronda 763 quartz caliber. This five-jewel movement displays hours, minutes, and seconds, with an advertised precision between -10 and +20 seconds per month. Powered by a 364 battery, the Mach 2000 Mini Moon benefits from a theoretical battery life of approximately 40 months and a stop-second function that facilitates precise time setting.

The strap of the Mach 2000 Mini Moon is made of silver-colored 316L stainless steel Milanese mesh. Its flexible structure conforms to the wrist and is adjusted via a secure sliding buckle. Quick-release spring bars facilitate its replacement. Manufactured in France in Besançon, the Mach 2000 Mini Moon thus combines historical design, a uniform metallic finish, and the simplicity of a Swiss quartz movement.
