Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The elegant simplicity of Movado's signature Museum dial is highlighted in this sleek and versatile timepiece from Movado's Amorosa series. This watch features a round black dial with silver-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 25.5 mm in diameter, and it is framed by a perfectly round silver-tone steel bezel. The watch presents on a beautiful polished steel bangle bracelet accented with 18 small round diamonds. The bracelet measures 6.25 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.

Exclusive offerings include the proprietary and patented 114-facet Movado Diamond™ jewelry collection, Movado’s own modern 18K gold, diamond, sterling silver and gemstone jewelry, signature pens and personal accessories, Movado clocks and fine Swiss watches.

I picked this out for my birthday gift this year, and while I was a little apprehensive ordering sight-unseen, I'm thrilled with my gift. The watch arrived in two days in perfect condition. Amazon's 5-year warrenty paperwork was included. While small, the diamonds sparkle beautifully, and really enhance the look of this watch (I saw the plain version in person, and it's just that - plain). I have an average size wrist, and will need to get one or two links removed by a local jeweler.

My husband was going to go to a local jeweler and purchase this as a surprise, however he knew I could find a better price on-line. Sure enough, Amazon came through with the lowest price ( 50% off retail), free two-day shipping, and the A9 discount. Gotta love Amazon!

I highly recommend this watch, as well as it's purchase through Amazon.

This review is from: Movado Women's 604982 Amorosa Diamond Accented Bangle Bracelet Watch (Watch)

I recently purchased this to replace my Gucci watch. I've been searching for a watch that I can wear in the office and also out for a formal evening out. This turned out to be the perfect choice!

Before purchasing from Amazon, I went to Macys to try on and see the watch first. And yes, this same watch is retailing at Macys for $850.

What I like about this watch is that I have a round narrow wrist. And often, bracelet or bangles kind of watches tend to turn or slide on my wrist. But not this one. Although the sides are like a bracelet/bangle style, the clasp is a link type clasp so it can securely fasten the watch, and easily adjusted to fit.

The watch arrived in Movado box and instructions and Amazon's five years warranty. I like the diamonds as decorative setting rather than the other Amarosa Watch which I personally found to be too plain. This is a perfect watch as a gift or to purchase for yourself and at a terrific price! I am very happy with my purchase

Tip: Bring the watch to Movado to have the watch adjusted for sizing....they adjust all Movado watches for free whereas other jewellery/watch stores will!

Amazing product, arrived two days after purchase. I called around to jewlery stores all around town and couldn't get a hold of this model. The only place that was willing to order it in was asking for $1200 and gave me a waiting period of 3-4 weeks. Seriously a beautiful watch. I wish you all could see the look on my gilfriend's face when she opened her present. If you think that the images on amazon look impressive, you will not be disappointed when you open the box. The product came with all the proper packaging and after customs and over night delivery, the purchase came to just under $600 CDN. Awesome! Kay I'm done ranting. AWESOME!
