Movado refers to the watches which have taken the designing and manufacturing of watch to level of artistic endeavor. The philosophy of the company is written in its name which in Esperanto means “movement”. Indeed the Movado watches have a long history behind them, which tells the tale of a long upward journey, based on the principles of dedication and strict adherence to quality.

With a legacy of over hundred and twenty-one year of watch making ventures, the Movado is always able to retain its premier position among the top shots in fine watch designing business. The relentless effort at modernization is the secret behind their success as a long-term player in such a competitive industry.

This Swiss Company was founded long back in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds. It was founded by Achilles Ditesheim, who realized the significance of attractive design alongside the importance of accuracy and precision in the art of watch making.

Movado is renowned for its Museum series of watches. To the connoisseurs of fine watches these timepieces spell splendor in terms of their aesthetic appeal. These uniquely designed watches include a black clock face with a single golden colored dot at 12o'clock.These watches are the perfect example of an understated elegance which makes them acceptable among all people irrespective of age. For this famous minimalist design with a universal appeal, Movado is indebted to American designer Nathan George Horwitt.

Horwitt lived and worked in the 1940’s and the trends of the contemporary art movement have influenced his creation. The design of Movado was released by this talented designer in the year 1947. The famous design was inspired by the imagery of a sundial, the earliest solution for measuring time. The golden circle represented the sun at high noon.

The latest series of Movado Watches includes the Movado SL watches. They are the true successor of the brand's clean and futuristic design sensibilities. To be more precise these SL series of Movado watches are more like a sporty version of Movado's iconic Museum dial. The Movado’s signature motif is intelligently integrated into the overall mood of the watch. The design of SL bracelets includes such detailing as concave dots joining the center of each link.

In short, a Movado watch is clean, elegant and perfect for any occasion.
