Bold and modern in silver and black, this handsome timepiece from Movado's Sapphire series represents a futuristic interpretation of the classic Museum dial watch. It has a perfectly round mirror dial with silver-tone hands and a single concave dot at the twelve o'clock position. This is the minimalist look made famous for Movado by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Horwitt intended his design to be evocative of a sun dial, with the dot representing the sun at high noon. The dial is housed in a stainless steel case with extended lugs that angle back. A flat, dark metalized sapphire crystal lies flush to case edge for a sleek, seamless look. This watch offers precise Swiss quartz movement and presents on a soft black calfskin strap that fastens with a buckle closure. Water-resistant to 30 meters, it can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water, but it is not sufficiently resistant for swimming.
About Movado
Movado, one of the most celebrated watch brands in the world, traces its origins to the small village of La Chaux-de-faunds, Switzerland where, in 1881, a young watchmaker named Achille Ditesheim hired six assistants and opened a small workshop. He called his company Movado, a word which means, roughly, "always in motion." The company grew and prospered, evolving from a small pocketwatch manufacturer into a leading innovator and designer of precision wristwatches. Throughout its history, Movado has maintained its place at the pinnacle of innovation and excellence in design, craftsmanship and technology. Movado watches are crafted by highly-skilled watchmakers to meet the exacting standards of Swiss time technology. They are accurate to within seconds a year. All Movado watches are sealed and protected against water, moisture and dust, and individually tested to meet strict international standards of quality. A long-time dedicated supporter of the arts, Movado has, itself, been the recipient of over 200 international awards. Movado watches can now be found in the permanent collections of over 20 museums worldwide.
Customer Review: Great looking watch.
The watch looks great. I have several movado's and really like the mirror face on this one, however like someone else said, the twelve o'clock marker fell out of mine as well and then scratched the mirror face all up. I had to have the entire watch replaced.
Customer Review: Perfect Watch
I chose this watch for my graduation gift, and I couldn't be pleased more. The mirror finish is flawless. Being sapphire, the watch is very scratch resistant. I wanted a gift that I would have my whole life. It is modern, sleek, elegant, and very comfortable! I recommend it for sure-- Mahalo
