Product Description This ultra-sleek Men's Museum dial watch is the essence of simplicity and style. It features a perfectly round black Museum dial with slender 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 black dial is housed in an ultra-thin stainless steel case measuring 31mm wide and framed by a steel bezel with slightly elongated lugs. It presents on a sleek black calfskin strap that tapers slightly toward the ends and fastens with a stainless steel buckle closure. This watch features a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and precise Swiss quartz movement. Water-resistant to 30 meters, it can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water; however, 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. Museum Collection The watch dial defined by a dot at 12. Design simplicity unrivaled in the history of time-keeping. Flat dot/stick hands, or concave dot/dauphine hands. Stainless steel or gold-plated case. Fine leather strap. Swiss quartz movement. Sapphire crystal. Water resistant to 3 atm. |
Customers Reviews  2009-02-26 Amazon lies I purchased the watch advertised as a men's watch. Later they changed it to a womens's watch. I complained and they changed it back to a men's watch. A few days later they changed it back to a women's watch. Who knows what this watch is - its a nice watch, but amazon should fire someone in their advertising department. |  2008-11-03 First Rate Exceedingly good value, even allowing for exchange rates. Slim and elegant design coupled with precision manufacture has given me a very desirable watch |  2008-08-15 Very Satisfied As a female, I purchased the men's Movado instead of the ladies because I like larger cases on my watches. The ladies was too small in my opinion. At the time I decided to order one, I checked different sites and Amazon had the lowest price, so why not order from Amazon. In addition, I trust Amazon completely. I am very satisfied with Amazon and my purchase. |  2008-07-17 Slim, Stylish, Easier to read time than what I had imagined. I've had this watch for a little over 3 weeks now...
The best features I love:
- Thin. It's not a hugh honking piece of metal like most watches out there. If you're a thin, sleek man, or you dress that way, then this is probably the watch for you. I can't see beefier guys wearing this watch. It would look out of place with their physique.
- Stylish. I've gotten about 4 comments on my watch so far. Everyone recognizes the Movado look. It helps to boost my ego.
- Easy to read. Yes. It's not that hard to read. You just need to think a little more about where the hour hand is, but it's become automatic for me now. And if you tilt the watch just right, you can read it in low light conditions because of the shiny, metal hands.
Some things I don't like:
- Smudges. The face takes up fingerprints like the front of an iPhone. Can't keep it clean. erg.
- Strap wear. I'm dubious if the strap will be able to handle a year of daily wearing. We'll see.
Other things:
- Not as small as you think. Yes it's not a large faced men's watch, but it is most defintiely larger than a large woman's watch. Like I said before, it's sleek, so buy that if that's your look. |  2008-05-14 Movado Moderno/Museum?? I purchased this as a replacement watch for my son, who seems to have lost his 4 yr old Movado Moderno, given to him as a gift. It's very attractive and distinctive on his wrist,keeps perfect time and the sapphire crystal never seems to scratch. But, I am still wondering if I was mistakenly sent the Movado Museum watch rather than the Moderno which I ordered. The tag number on the watch he received was that of the Moderno, but the watch looked to be a few mm more in diameter and fit the description of the Museum, which is very similar but 5mm larger in diameter...further, the watch seemed larger on his wrist than the one he had previously. For a man, this is probably a better look, but since we were trying to replace (unnoticed)what he had before, it seems noticeable that it is larger. All in all..the watch is fantastic and a quality piece. |
| Movado WatchesMovado is a Swiss luxury watch company whose name is Esperanto for "movement". Movado was founded in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland by Achilles Ditesheim. The company is most renowned for its Museum watches that feature a black clock face with a single gold point at twelve o'clock. 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. This most recognizable look of a Movado is a simple hour and minute hand, with a solid background and a single depressed circle on the 12:00 mark. The Museum Dial, Movado's signature design, has no markings on for minutes or hours (although some of Movado's other designs now do). Many refer to this design as the "boss's watch" because the boss doesn't have to be on time (hence the vague display of time).
In addition to its design, Movado watches tend to be regarded for being light weight. Most Movado styles include the use of sapphire crystal, which is highly scratch resistant and thus used by most watchmaking companies.
