The indicators in the above table show approximate phase forms when facing south to look up at the Moon in the Northern Hemisphere.
They are intended only to indicate whether the Moon's left or right side is darkened, and the Moon's actual appearance may be different. Also, in the Southern Hemisphere or near the equator, the Moon will appear in the northern sky, so the light and dark portions of the Moon will be opposite those shown by the watch’s indicator.
