What happens if I set two identical watches (same chronotropy) on my table and I slowly move one of them towards the moon
(let's say in three weeks to avoid a v²/c² ratio very different from 1)?

So the two clocks on your desk are synchronous.
If we ignore the gravitational blue shift, and pretend that
the ECI frame is a true inertial frame, then the lunar clock will
lag 0.45 μs on the Earth clock.
Which we will ignore, as you said we should.
So we will consider the clocks to be synchronous (within 1 μs).

 I notice in my telescope that when my watch marks
00:00'08" the lunar clock is desynchronized and marks 00:00'07".

Don't be ridiculous.
In the telescope you will see the clock showing 00:00'06.72".
Unless you are a complete moron, you will understand that
the lunar clock must have advanced 1.28" since the light
you see in the telescope was emitted.
So the clock is really 00:00'06.72" + 1.28" = 00:00'08".
The clocks are still synchronous.
Which is blazingly obvious, so what is the point
with the nonsense below?

 The fundamental question, absolutely fundamental, absolutely dramatic, absolutely scientific and above all absolutely relativistic, is: WHY are watches out of sync?
 There, two very clear opinions will oppose each other, that of the idiot Python, and that of the true genius of humanity Hachel.
 This will inevitably create the most magnificent sparks in the entire history of relativity, and forty years of hatred, misunderstandings, bullshit, whining..
 I'll ask my question again, of such depth that we must warn potential contenders for armed conflict with Hachel not to answer stupid things.
 WHY are watches out of sync?

Am I to understand that the genius Doctor Richard Hachel believe
that if you look at a the lunar clock through a telescope, then
the clock will be affected and set 1.28" back and be desynchronised?
What happens when you stop looking?
Will the clock be set 1.28" forward and again be synchronised?
No. Not even you can seriously believe so.
You know that the clocks can't be affected by being looked at,
so what was your point with this?
