Movado is an American luxury watchmaker best known for its Museum Watch designed in 1947. Movado was originally founded in 1881 in Switzerland by Achilles Ditesheim. In 1983, the company was purchased by Gedalio Grinberg, a Cuban-born Jew who fled Fidel Castro’s Marxist Revolution in 1960 with his family.Note the unique kris hands of the chronograph registers, a Movado design hallmark. They almost never survive the passage of time, so to find a watch with them still in place is unusual. Note also that the minutes sub-dial goes to 60, which I believe is unique to the 95M movement as well, a feature developed at Movado’s request by Frederic Piguet. The M90/M95 movement is the first modular chronograph ever produced, giving them the lead by at least 30 years with respect to any competitor.This Movado with Cal 95 movement is in absolutely brilliant condition. The gold case is phenomenal shape, and the dial is minty. The original hands still remain, which is tough to find these days. The movement is clean as well. The watch is keeping great time and the chronograph functions 100%. The watch is a great size at 37mm (feels like a 38 on my wrist) and these watches are only rising in value. Feel free to message me with questions or offers. Happy to do a F2F deal in the NYC area.
