Three new watches from the Movado Datron line are recenty unveiled at BaselWorld show.
Movado means “continuous motion” in Esperanto and, in the spirit of its name, this company keeps moving forward, repeatedly surprising us with nice and valuable issues. Their watches are cleverly designed, embodied in plain silhouettes with a sophisticated modern appeal. When you look at their contemporary models, it becomes hard to believe Movado was founded back in the 1881.
The new watches offer a nice vintage twist, inspired by the brand’s classic Movado Datron from 1970. Datron features a Heritage watch design, embodied in a 44 mm wide tonneau-shaped case and sophisticated dual-tone dials. The watches are available in black or anthracite grey with silvered chronograph sub-counters, or as in silver dial variation matched with black sub-counters.
The special edition watches are crafted in 18-carat pink gold and detailed by thin rose gold-toned hands and applied hour markers. A round date aperture positioned at 12 o’clock celebrates the brand’s signature Museum dot. The original model was available with a rotating bezel and a number of dial variations.
Movado Datron Automatic Chronographs utilize fine Swiss automatic movement ETA caliber 2894-2, equipped with 37 jewels. The watch provides 42 hours of power reserve, it has a sapphire crystal protection on the top, and allows for 50m of water resistance.

Movado Red Label Skymap
For thousands of years, people looked up at the night sky to measure and keep track of time. The Egyptians have been first to develop timekeeping instruments that relied on star movements. These were alternatives to shadow clocks, which relied on the sun and were useless at night or when the weather is cloudy. The first of these instruments were aligned with Polaris, the North Pole star, and the time was measured by observing certain celestial bodies as they crossed the north-south meridian. In 2012, Movado presents the Red Label Skymap, a...
