Amazon.com Product Description
Sleek, modern styling and superior durability combine in this handsome Museum dial watch from Movado's Valor series. It features a black rectangular dial with silver-tone hands and a small silver-tone dot and Movado logo at the twelve o'clock position. The dial is housed in a case crafted from steely blue tungsten carbide with a virtually scratch-proof finish. This metal rates a 7 of 10 on Movado's scratch-proof scale. For comparison, aluminum rates a 3, gold a 4, steel a 5, and diamond a full 10. The watch presents on a handsome bracelet-style band made up of polished rectangular links and fastens with a hidden push-button deployment clasp. The case measures 35 mm long and bracelet measures 23 mm wide. Other notable features of this watch include 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.
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.

Customer Reviews
4 years old and still perfect
I got this watch for my 2nd anniversary four years ago and wear it all the time. Formal, casual, it goes with any thing and I still get comments on it all the time. The tungsten material is IMPOSSIBLE to scratch. I would definately buy another Movado.
Movado Men's Valor Watch
A stunningly beautiful dress watch. This bracelet watch made with Tungsten Carbide adds a very masculine weight and feel to the thin faced design of the watch itself. This was a 30th anniversary gift to me that adds an air of elegance to my wardrobe. ( It also has kept perfect time )
Beautiful looking watch and very expensive feeling...
This watch is great! I am very satisfied with the way it looks and especially the way it feels. It is made with a very dense metal so it is quite heavy... It is very hard to scratch, however, I was able to scratch it... when it bumped into my diamond ring. :(
Otherwise, this is a wise investment and very "business" looking. :)
