Amazon.com Product Description
Perfectly styled for accompanying your most fashionable evening wear, this Movado Bela stainless steel Swiss quartz dress watch for women features a slim profile that won't overpower the rest of your jewelry. Demure and delovely, it's complemented by a thin, bangle-style bracelet with a brilliantly polished shine.

Featuring the utterly recognizable, minimalist look of the Museum Watch, made famous by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947, this Bela has a deep black dial with two tiny dagger-style silver hands and Movado's signature single dotted marker at 12 o'clock. Powered by a precise Swiss quartz movement, it also features a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet)--enabling it to withstand splashes and accidental dunks into the water, but not suitable for swimming.

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

Great for special days!
First of all, I was amazed by the delivery: It was a little bit late purchase for Christmas, December 17th, and I ordered this item in Korea. Usually it takes 7 business days, which means 10~11days. I even told my girlfriend that I might give her a present a little bit later. Unexpectedly, it came on 24th, just right on time. It was a pleasant surprising for me, and needless to say, even bigger surprising for her.

Secondly, this watch is very stylish, simple black and silver. This simpleness makes it go well with both casual and formal: The body is quite shinny and some people might not want to wear on casuals. (It is great with formal suits!!) Since my girlfriend doesn't wear suits normally, she was worried that it might not look good on casuals. However, she also found out that it was going well with casuals, and she wears it almost everyday because she doesn't need to change watches for her clothes. (Maybe she wants to show how much she likes it ;) ) Also, the box that comes with the watch also shows classic Movado styles, and had a bigger impact when I gave it to her.

Thirdly, durability. The face part of this watch is made of sapphire, and sapphire has the hardness degree of 9 (Diamond is 10), which is harder than typical knives or good steel. It won't be easy to make a scratch on the face. However, it is quite easy to get scratched on the straps or other parts, and you might want to get ready to mourn over the first scratch in a relatively short time.

Very good deal
I bought this watch recently for my wife. She liked it very much. It is very sleek in silver and black. I recommend this item to others. If you buy it I assure that you won't be disappointed.

She Loved it!
Great watch, great service. She really loved this watch. I was able to purchase much less than in the local retailers. Both of us were very happy with this purchase!
