Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Sparkling diamond accents add a feminine touch to this sophisticated dress watch from Movado's Kara series. Silvertone Dauphine hands and Movado's iconic concave dot marker highlight the perfectly round black Museum dial. This is the Movado's signature dial, made famous by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Horwitt intended his minimalist design to be evocative of a sun dial, with the dot representing the sun at high noon. The elegant dial is set in a solid steel case framed by a diamond-accented bezel. It presents on a slender silver-tone bangle bracelet that fastens with a jewelry clasp. In addition to its classic styling and graceful silhouette, the Kara offers precise Swiss quartz movement and a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. This watch is water resistant to 30 meters.

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars scatch-proof bracelet?, May 3, 2009

By	Jane "Jane" (MN USA) - See all my reviews

This watch is a beauty! Absolutely stunning!
However, I found the bracelet is not scratch-proof at all!!!
After wearing it for one week, it got scraches all over the band! I am not doing some heavy-duty work, I just read books, write notes, with the bracelet rubbing against table surface occassionally.
I know for protecting the watch, I am not suppose to do that, but be realistic, it's a watch, how can I keep my arm in the air the whole time to display the watch, and not do any work?
It should have some scratch-proof at least...
Do you gals have the same problem with the bracelet?

By	Liang Chen "LC" (Clark, NJ, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received my order today. It has been shipped in a timely manner, only took two days to get it. I'm really impressed. I like the watch very much. It's simple, but elegant. I've been struggling bewteen Kara and Amorosa, and finally chose Kara. It just fits me better. I really like the simple but elegant design.
