Description:

This classic Museum dial watch, in black and gleaming gold-tone steel, has a sleek, ultra-thin profile and distinctly modern styling. It features the legendary black Museum dial with gold-tone Dauphine hands and a single concave dot at the 12 o'clock position. This is Movado's signature dial, made famous 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 thin, flat dial is framed by a rounded gold-tone steel bezel and presents on a contoured leather strap that fastens with a buckle closure. Other notable features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and precise Swiss quartz movement. Water-resistant to 30 meters, this watch can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water; however, it is not sufficiently resistant for swimming. p strongAbout Movado/strongbr 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.

There's really not much to say about this watch. It's a Movado. It's beautiful. And it's unbelievably priced on Amazon at $179.99! The cheapest I've found this model in other stores was $225. Some other famous retailers sell it for around $300. I bought this as a gift for my "Best Man" at my wedding. I like it so much, I'm buying one for myself.

ALMOST perfect

I am pleased with this watch. I've wanted a Movado for a long time and this one is certainly affordable. I was a little surprised at the size of the watch face, it's small for a mans watch. It is not 37mm as advertized, it 33mm.
br /The leather band JUST fits on the first hole, and I have small wrists. Men with mediam/large wrist won't be able to use this band. Over all it a keeper, looks very nice.

It is a good and nice time piece. It looks expensive and catches the eyes. The setback is the watch is for dress only. It might not fit when going with casual clothes

This was really a good quality-price relationship. Because I am on Europe (Spain) they charge me the VAT (IVA) ahead, but information was accurate and the process was fast.
br /
br /Product shipping was ok, and overall preception of the watch matches with my expectations. Not luxury such as a Gucci or Piaget, but good choice for a second watch. Nothing to do with cheap funny Swatch.

br /Only compaint was related to UPS. They went on strike on Spain, and finally my wife had to pick up the mercancy at theirs store 15 days later than its arrival to Madrid.

I wanted a Movado for nearly two decades. The look was perfect but the price wasn't. Recently, Amazon had a sale and this watch was finally within buying range. Looks great. Runs great. Everything is so great my wife now wears the Movado.

This watch was a gift for our son's 21st birthday. He is very technical and loves modern, clean,contemporary lines; this watch fits the bill. He loved it and called all of his friends to tell them about it. They commented that "we were rich" (for getting him a Movado), thanks for the great price Amazon!!!!

I bought this watch for it's simple elegance and am not disappointed. You wear this watch more as jewelry than a timepiece. Every time that I wear this watch I get numerous positive comments from the ladies. As far as the band goes, my wrist is 6 7/8" circumference and I have 3 more expansion holes so it is just right for me . The only thing that I will have on my next Movado is a date (I didn't realize how much I counted on that simple function).

I received this watch with a size 18 band. I have average wrists. It would not fit. The watch band is short for all but those with small wrists because of how the clasp relates to the band holes.

Stunning Watch!

I purchased this watch from Amazon, and as always, received prompt shipping on the watch. I have never owned a Movado, and I am ecstatic about it! It's gorgeous, and in this style, I have never seen such a nice watch! It just has a type of class and distinction all of it's own. The size of the watch isn't too big, or too small. It's not big, bulky, or gaudy looking. It also has a "sharp" leather band, which matches well with the gold tone around the case. I have a medium sized wrist, and the band fits just fine. If nobody buys this watch for you as a gift, then treat yourself, and buy it anyway! You won't regret it!!

i hd a version of this watch many moons ago, and have just ordered another. i don/t i don/t think the previous poster gets it. if i need exact time, i can use my cell which is in contact w/ an atomic clock. i hope *not* to live my life so precise.

there are a few paragraphs in proust where he laments the coming of trains, because suddenly everyone has to be 'on time'. i hope i never get stuck back in that way of thinking. if i can/t be a few minutes off (or, for that matter, remember to arrive early), it/s probably not worth it. the movado *is* jewel, but one w/ a function. but casually.

eagerly awaiting ...

I purchased the watch as a birthday gift for my husband. It arrived in time and he was very pleased with it - he has been wearing it ever since! It is of good quality. His main comment is regarding the strap clasp which presents a problem in that the stem is not long enough to stay in the hole - it may not be as heavy duty as the leather band. Also, the battery has already had to be replaced after 3 months usage.

I knew what to expect and it was delivered in great condition. I want to emphasize that I am particularly empressed with the customer service... It is very personal and they really see you as a person, not just as a customer. That makes a difference. I had a light argument with them (they didn't inform me it took them longer to get the item and I absolutely had to get it before the end of the week)... so they really did something - they investigated, they replied promptly... I was really pleasantly impressed. I just started to work on my MBA and in the courses they often bring examples from Amazon... and yes, the company really works well, Good job!! (I am not even sure whether I am happy more with the watch or with the amazon service:-))

I purchased this watch not only for its style and value, but also to cover up an embarrassing secret I have kept hidden from everyone except my wife.
br /
br /I was walking down the sidewalk one afternoon, dressed in a fine suit and coat, on my way to a meeting. A woman at a bus stop asked me for the time as I was passing by. I looked down at the jeweled, name-brand Swiss timepiece I wore on my wrist and immediately began to panic. The dial began to swirl in my vision and the gold hands seemed to spin uncontrollably, pointing randomly to the chicken scratch numbers that meant nothing to me. You see, I am illiterate, and never learned to read either letters or numbers; my watch was merely a fashion accessory. My wife made sure it was set to the correct time every morning, but I relied on my secretary and others to make sure I was at scheduled appointments. I stood in a cold sweat, staring dumbly down at my wrist. "I think I might have missed my bus," the woman explained, "What time do you have?" I panicked and blurted out, "I think my watch is broken." I shook my wrist and held my watch up to my ear for added emphasis. "Really?" the woman asked, "May I see it?" I was trapped. I couldn't refuse her, so I offered her my wrist. She looked at my watch, saw the smooth sweep of the second hand, and said, "Why, your watch is working fine." I could only stammer, "Ummmm..." "And it's 3:45, so I haven't missed the bus yet. Oh good! Thank you very much!" I smiled meekly, mumbled you're welcome, and continued on my way. I could feel the burning gaze of the woman on the back of my head, and my face burned with shame and humiliation.
br /
br /I vowed then that I would never let anything like that happen to me again, so I went to all the fancy watch shops and jewelers looking for as abstract a watch as I could find. I found many crazy watch designs, but nothing befitting a man in my position. I almost gave up the search and resigned myself to a future without watches when I saw an ad in a magazine for a black and gold watch having a single gold dot on its face. I rushed to my wife and asked her what the ad said and where I could find such a watch. She told me it was a Movado, found an on-line seller, and purchased it for me. The watch came within a few days and was everything I needed: sleek, stylish, and most important, barren of numbers. The only marking on the face was the famous gold dot at the lunch position.
br /
br /Now whenever someone asks me the time, I simply show them my Movado and tell them, "Here, your guess is as good as mine." Not only does this save me from possibly revealing my illiteracy, it also often gets a laugh when my questioner sees the nearly blank watch face. Because of Movado, I am able to wear a sophisticated, stylish watch despite being unable to read time or anything else. And I also want to thank my wife for typing this review for me.

A thing of beauty

This is an incredibly beautiful dress watch, and richly deserves its place in the permanent collections of art museums.
br /
br /On the other hand, this watch supports the theory that the "dressiness" of a watch is in inverse proportion to its functionality. This is the opposite end of the spectrum from the Breitling multi-dial pilots' watches with the slide rule in the bezel and the Suunto X9 GPS watch (extremely functional, but just doesn't go with a tuxedo).
br /
br /As handsome as this watch is, it doesn't even have hour markings! It tells you roughly what time it is, +/- 5 minutes or so. To be fair, it seems very accurate, but the lack of markings means no precision (if it says noon, it is noon and it doesn't seem to gain or loss time, but you can't distinguish what minute it is).
br /
br /On the whole, a lovely piece of jewelry, but of only marginal utility as a timepiece.
