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.

The Movado Boutiques extend the Movado brand philosophy of design innovation beyond watches to a range of products for modern living. 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jomashop Came With a Beautful Movado Men's Fiero Watch at 40% off, October 11, 2006

I was skeptical to say the least when I came across Jomashop selling the Men's Movado Fiero watch at 40% off ($1,250.00) anywhere I could buy it in a retail store($2,000.00). So I searched the reviews and most of the negative comments dealt with purchasers not receiving their watches as quickly as they had hoped or watches on backorder.

Well, I was in no hurry to receive it so I ordered one through the Amazon.com website because of Amazon's purchase guarantee...still skeptical, when I received it I took it straight to an authorized Movado Service Center to verify the watch's authenticity...it was the real deal. A beautiful highly polished Tungsten Carbide virtually scratch proof Movado Fiero for 40% OFF!!! I am very pleased! Oh by the way, I received the watch in the time specified on the purchase order.

I have noticed some of the complaints about Joma involve buyers who did not notice that the watch does not come with a factory warranty...Since Joma is not an authorized Movado dealer the warranty provided is by Jomashop technicians. This was ok by me, I figure the money I saved by buying from Joma I could use for repair from an Authorized Movado Service Center if it needed repair. I would NEVER take my Movado anywhere but an authorized service center.

So...bottom line...GREAT price if you don't mind the warranty service being provide by someone other than a factory authorized technician.

If JOMA would incorporate some type of "Check Availability" option to their website and be upfront with regards to the availabilty of a product it would eliminate 98% of the negative comments about them...jmo

this is a tungsten carbide watch. the watch is heavy but it's contoured shape fits so well to the wrist it feels better than a lightweight titanium watch. while it is nearly impossible to scratch and incredibly dense, the texture of the metal feels soft like a malleable 24karat gold. it is quite expensive for a wristwatch, but once you try it on you will understand the value.

I bought this watch for my husband for his Birthday, He loves it, the quality of this watch is a very good. He said it has a good form to his wrist. We have looked at this same watch in other jewelry store. They wanted $2500.00-$2800.00, we got a good deal through Amazon. I would buy through them again. Shipping was very fast as well. Thanks again for quality and fast shipping.
