Movado The art of Movado is the art of design. Since its founding in 1881 by 19-year old entrepreneur Achille Ditesheim in the village of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Movado has achieved a legacy of design innovation, earning more than 100 patents and 200 international awards for artistry and innovation in watch design and time technology.
Movado, meaning “always in motion” in the international language of Esperanto, is the hallmark of some of the most famous timepieces ever created: the 1912 Polyplan, its revolutionary, patented movement constructed on three planes to fit a case curved to follow the wristhellip;the WWI Soldierrsquo;s Watch with its elegant, protective grillhellip;the 1927 Ermeto, a capsule-shaped pocket watch wound by the sliding motion of its casehellip;the innovative 1950rsquo;s Kingmatic series of rotor-driven automaticshellip;the Movado Artistrsquo;s Series by luminaries of the fine art worldhellip;and the Movado Museumreg; Watch with its legendary dial.
Defined by a single dot at 12 representing the sun at high noon, the Museum Watch dial is regarded as an icon of Modernism. It was designed by Bauhaus-influenced artist Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. When Horwittrsquo;s dial was selected for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1960, it was the first watch dial ever awarded this distinction. The name “Museum Watch” derives from this recognition. Today, Movado watches are in prominent museums worldwide, and this legendary dial distinguishes an entire collection of singular timepieces.
