This is a beauty! At least it has markers on the face so one can actually tell time by it, as opposed to some Movado watches of today. :D

LOL, I guess it's because this one is really a Zenith.

Just turned 25 a couple days ago, decided to get myself this:


belated happy birthday, the watch looks great.

Thank you! Yeah, the face has aged quite a bit--looks better in person. It's a great watch--has a beautiful movement.


you got pics of the movement for us?

It was made in the early 70s while Zenith owned Movado for a few years. The watch was sold with both Zenith and Movado as the name on the dial. It's really just a rebranded Zenith (this was due to trademark issue with the Zenith TV company).

Its the mid. I have a 7" wrist and this one fits me perfect. I still think I'll buy the large one when they are back in stock though.
