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 sophisticated automatic piece inspired by the awe-inspiring heavenly constellations, and their historic role in the history of time telling. The watch comes with the iconic Museum dial, distinguished by a dot at 12 o’clock, symbolizing the high Sun at noon. The background is painted in black and mapped with the stars of Switzerland’s summer sky. The larger stars are coated in Super Lumi-Nova, while a small moon phase indicator, positioned at 10 o’clock, completes stellar phantasy.

According to the press release from Movado, black dial is a limited edition, but there are two more exclusive options to choose from: blue or grey dial. The movement, powering each of the variants, is self-winding Sellite calibre SW300, with Dubios-Deparz DD9234 complication. The case-back is fitted with a sapphire crystal, which serves as a see-through cover that reveals customized rotor with red Movado “M” silhouette.
This is men’s 42mm-diameter watch crafted in black PVD-finished or polished stainless steel. Movado Red Label Skymap is water resistant to 30 meters and presented on a glossy black, matte blue or matte grey alligator strap.

Contemporary interpretations of the iconic 1970 model are presented in virtually identical form, with perfectly round dial nested in a tonneau case. Until recently, the watches were offered in versions with sophisticated two-tone dials, and as 3-hand models with round date at 12. For 2012, Movado launches a beautiful silver tone-on-tone dial. The watch is crafted in stainless steel with 40 millimeters in diameter....
Movado Red Label Calendomatic
Movado has just released a new model named Red Label Calendomatic, inspired by the original Calendomatic watch that was first unveiled in 1946. Calenodmatic watches are distinguished by a complete date window on a dial. This new model uses an interesting aperture mechanism to display original centre date disc, while a convex window in the sapphire crystal magnifies the day date at 3 o’clock. Design also incorporates the small seconds indicator on the off-centered position, between 6 and 8 o’clock. The watch-case is made of black PVD-coated s...

Movado Bold Metallic Sheen Dial in Berry, Leaf and Slate
The new Movado Bold watches are designed for both genders. Their round cases, crafted in stainless steel and coated in white TR90 composite material, are having 36 millimeters in diameter, which makes them mid-sized watches. Each of them is fitted with a metallic sheen dial with immediately recognizable flat Museum dot at 12 o’clock. Museum dial – and its single dot – actually represent sun at high noon, while the hands are suggesting the movement of the Earth. Even the name of the brand Movado stands for "continuous movement" in Esperanto....

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.
