Movado Kingmatic S 'Explorer Dial'

A time-only Movado from the 1950s or 60s — really any mechanical Movado from the 1950s or 60s for that matter — offers a ton of value in the watch world.  Movado, established in 1881, made some of the finest time-only and complicated watches of the 20th century. Their famed triple-calendar watches of the 1940s and ‘50s and Super Sub Sea chronographs from the 1960s are highly sought after by collectors, and for good reason — combining high-quality movements with attractive design, they’re the type of timepieces that draw people headfirst into the horological world. This piece could easily be mistaken for a vintage Rolex explorer, but it actually has Movado Kingmatic cool behind it. The dial has patinated beautifully, with nicely intact lume and a classic Mercedes handset. If this watch were a Rolex, it would cost quite a bit more, and it would be less rare! This watch is a really awesome piece of Movado history, and we are excited to offer it for you here in the shop. Svelte and handsome, this is a beautiful watch for someone who’s gone deep down the horological rabbit hole. Snag it now!
