Ever since the beginning of Movado, the company has earned over one hundred design patents due to their ground-breaking styles and over two hundred international awards for artistry and innovation in time technology and watch design. Achille Ditesheim in the village of La Chaux-de-Fonds, founded Movado in eighteen eighty one as a 19-year old entrepreneur. Among the motto's is the "the Art of Movado is the Art of Time."
In the international language of Esperanto, Movado means "always in motion." Responsible for several of the most recognized watches ever created, Movado is proud of the WWI Soldier's Watch with its protective and elegant grill, and the 1912 Polyplan, a style with a revolutionary, patented movement which was made on three planes to be able to fit a case which was curved to follow the wrist. The 1927 Ermeto is a capsule shaped pocket watch that was wound by the sliding motion of its case. During the nineteen fifties, the Kingmatic series of rotor-driven automatics became obtainable. The Movado Museum Watch is one of the more well known pieces and showcases its legendary dial. Moreover, according to Prince George Jewellery, the luminaries of 20th Centure Art featured in the Movado Artist's Series is one more well-known series.
Regarded as an icon of Modernism, the Museum Watch dial is represented by one dot at 12 o'clock, that is to represent the sun at high noon. This timeless design was created in 1947 by Bauhaus- influenced artist Nathan George Horwitt. This feature was selected for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. This was the first watch dial to ever be awarded this honor and this remarkable occasion happened in the year 1960. The name "Museum Watch" is derived from this particular accomplishment. Now, Movado watches are available across the world in famous museums. This legendary and simple dial design differentiates a complete collection of singular timepieces.
Movado has established a series of extraordinary items obtainable under the Movado Boutiques umbrella. Select offerings consist of a wide array of diamond, gemstone, 18K gold and sterling silver jewelry. Movado clocks, personal accessories, signature pens, unique gifts for the home, fine Swiss watches and the patented 114-facet Movado Diamond jewelry selection are all accessible. Seasonal catalogs highlight some selections. Now, there are 28 upscale Movado Boutique stores situated throughout the United States. The craftsmanship and design innovation extend beyond watches and into a complete array of products intended for elegant and modern living.
Movado is proud that their values are as valid nowadays as it was during eighteen eighty one. Standing committed to their excellence in design and commitment to Swiss craftsmanship, combined with their on-going pursuit for technological innovation enables Movado to successfully celebrate one hundred twenty seven years of artistry and innovation.
