| Editor Reviews: Product Description: Quartz movement, Sapphire crystal, Silver-tone hands, Water-resistant Amazon.com Product Description: Movado's popular Sport Edition watch, with its sleek aerodynamic curves and contemporary styling, is scaled down in this petite version, for women who prefer a smaller timepiece. This watch features a round black Museum dial with silver-tone hands and a single concave dot at the twelve o'clock position. This is the minimalist look made famous for Movado by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Horwitt intended his design to be evocative of a sun dial, with the dot representing the sun at high noon. The dial is housed in a 27 mm steel case and framed by a brushed and polished stainless steel bezel accented with Movado's signature concave dot at the corners. It presents on a brushed stainless steel link bracelet with concave dot accents and fastens with a push-button deployment clasp. Other notable features of this watch include precise Swiss quartz movement and a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Water-resistant to 30 meters, it can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water, but 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. + Read more.... |  |
