This Movado may well represent the pinnacle of Calatrava-style design from the brand, thanks to its remarkable preservation and exceptional rarity. Finding Movado watches in NOS or unworn condition is exceedingly rare, but discovering one in full steel, with a dial layout reminiscent of the legendary Patek Philippe 570, is a truly extraordinary event.
Its elegant 35mm case is defined by a refined flat bezel, and notably, the dial features no luminescent material, an uncommon detail that further elevates its appeal among the most discerning collectors.
In the realm of vintage timepieces, Movado has increasingly captured the spotlight and earned acknowledgment from collectors in recent times. Founded in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, the brand has evolved into one of the most versatile and renowned Swiss watchmakers.
