Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Movado's signature Museum dial stands out beautifully against a background of two-tone polished stainless steel in this elegant watch from Movado's Amorosa collection. This watch features a round black dial with gold-tone Dauphine hands and a concave dot marker 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 silver-tone stainless steel case that measures 24mm in diameter, and it is framed by a perfectly round silver-tone steel bezel. It presents on a beautifully polished steel bangle bracelet with gold-tone accents. The bracelet measures 6.5 inches and fastens with a jewelry clasp. 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.

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.

The Movado Story

The art of Movado is the art of design. Since its founding in 1881 by 19-year old entrepreneur Achille Ditesheim in the village of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Movado has achieved a legacy of design innovation, earning more than 100 patents and 200 international awards for artistry and innovation in watch design and time technology.

Movado, meaning "always in motion" in the international language of Esperanto, is the hallmark of some of the most famous timepieces ever created: the 1912 Polyplan, its revolutionary, patented movement constructed on three planes to fit a case curved to follow the wrist…the WWI Soldier’s Watch with its elegant, protective grill…the 1927 Ermeto, a capsule-shaped pocket watch wound by the sliding motion of its case…the innovative 1950’s Kingmatic series of rotor-driven automatics…the Movado Artist’s Series by luminaries of the fine art world…and the Movado Museum® Watch with its legendary dial.

Defined by a single dot at 12 representing the sun at high noon, the Museum Watch dial is regarded as an icon of Modernism. It was designed by Bauhaus-influenced artist Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. When Horwitt’s dial was selected for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1960, it was the first watch dial ever awarded this distinction. The name "Museum Watch" derives from this recognition. Today, Movado watches are in prominent museums worldwide, and this legendary dial distinguishes an entire collection of singular timepieces.

This review is from: Movado Women's 604760 Amorosa Two-Tone Stainless-Steel Bangle Bracelet Watch (Watch)

After much consideration, Movado was definitely my watch of choice. The minimalist styling, Swiss movement, and known quality make Movado the "Mercedes" of wristwatches (IMHO and even tho Mercedes was German and is now US.)

Anyway, after shopping fine jewelry stores and trying on the various styles (ladies), I chose the Amarosa because I have a small wrist and this one CAN be sized down (contrary to another review here.) I just had three links removed and it fits like a dream now! I did not, however, want to pay the $500 full price at local jewelry stores. I purchased at $249.00 through Amazon (direct, not through a partner.) Now it's even less ($239.00 as of this writing.) This is an authentic Movado complete with rounded leather-like box, documentation and genuine Movado materials. A trusted local jeweler, who sized it for me, confirmed it is "real." So, you can buy direct from Amazon with confidence and receive a FIVE year warranty. I love mine! It would make someone who loves Movado, as much as I do, a Very Merry Christmas gift.
