Amazon.com Product Description
This handsome watch from Movado's Gentry collection offers a sporty blend of function and style. It features a round silver dial with bold Arabic numerals at 3, 9, and 12 and bar markers elsewhere. A subdial at the 6 o'clock position registers the seconds, and luminous hands and markers make the dial easy to read, even at night. The dial is framed by a stainless steel bezel with engraved hour markers and coin-edge detailing. The watch is set in a 39 mm solid steel case and presents on a smooth black leather strap with a matte finish and sporty contrast stitching. It closes with a buckle 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.

An Atypical MOVADO May Be Just What You're Looking For
This watch is more impressive in person than in pictures.
The look is more timeless and classic than those watches with the traditional Movado look (the look is reminiscent of, although -- for obvious reasons -- not exactly identical to, certain Bulgari watches). However, the price and quality are still Movado, which means you get a rather fine quality watch for not too much money (particularly at Amazon's discounted price).
Amazon's service was, as has been my experience, consistently excellent. I received the watch rather quickly, and it came nicely packed with all the original boxes and paperwork. In my opinion, if you want a nice watch in this price range, you really can't go wrong.
Good luck.
nice but not upto expectations
Bought this watch for my husband. nice dial but was very disappointed with the quality of the belt. looked like some cheap strap rather than the top quality you expect from Movado. all in all would have kept it if the belt would have been better quality
