In 2018, Sun Lei, the Chief Designer of the company, leveraged the FIYTA platform and founded MOONYANG (Sun Lei’s pen name). It is the first high-end designer brand in China’s watch industry, and a pioneer Chinese wristwatch brand that integrates high-end international watchmaking resources with original design to create a luxury Chinese watch brand.

Sun MoonYang, founder of the MOONYANG brand, has been devoted to designing watches for nearly three decades. With his outstanding talent and endless enthusiasm, he is one of the most senior and stylish watch designers, who is followed diligently by the watchmaking industry in China. He has initiated various design projects, such as major national design projects (China Aeronautics Watch, China Air Force Pilot Watch, China Aircraft Carrier Pilot Watch, etc.), high-end collectible watch projects, futuristic innovative design projects, etc.

Many of his designs have won various awards, including China Industrial Award, China National Appearance Patent Prize, Red Dot Award, Gold Award of Governor Cup Industrial Design Competition, Red Star Award, and dozens of other well-known domestic and overseas design awards. His works have been displayed in the National Museum of China, the Swiss International Watch Museum, and other museums.

Sun MoonYang has always strived to express time innovatively. His aim is to break the clutter, while paying tribute to the classics, designing high-end timepieces with both aesthetic and collectible value in China’s wristwatch field.

The key person involved in crafting the movement of the early MOONYANG products—Arthur King and Xuanyuan Sword-themed wristwatches is Mr. Eric Coudray, who is known as “one of the three most complex movement designers in the world”. MOONYANG applies the concept of moving hour hands to time display. This is a pioneering approach, which makes the actual design and manufacture of the mechanical movement extremely difficult. Since it involves an underlying innovation in mechanical watch technology, there is no prior reference, hence making it a new breakthrough in the industry.

In the history of modern watches, Arthur King and Xuanyuan Sword-themed wristwatches have created a way to express time that differ from the traditional way of telling time in Europe. These watches tell time by the difference in position of the hour hands through the Jumping H Hands movement. As a result, they have redefined the expression of time, triggering a major innovation in the underlying structure of mechanical watches, and naturally they have been hailed as a “revolution of the hour hand” by the international watch industry.

MOONYANG brand has authorized Harmony World Watch Center to conduct omni-channel sales. Harmony World Watch Center also has a complete service center and is the official authorized maintenance center, providing professional and meticulous global guarantee service.
