Movado was established in 1881 by the 19-year-old Achille Ditisheim, a gifted watchmaker who, alongside six craftsmen, opened his workshops in La Chaux-de-Fonds. The brand’s name, derived from Esperanto, translates to “always in motion,” embodying its innovative spirit. This remarkable Movado Kingmatic is a true testament to the brand’s refined artistry, exquisite taste, and mid-century design ingenuity. Encased in white gold, this example commands attention with its exquisite diamond-set bezel, lugs, and center links of its bracelet. The dial itself is a harmonious blend of geometric precision and luxury, featuring diamond-set hour markers that elevate its sophistication, with a clean silver finish on the outer dial. The white-gold bracelet, further enhanced with diamond-set accents, lends the watch a seamless elegance while providing excellent wrist presence. Overall, the present Movado Kingmatic is not merely a watch but a statement of enduring elegance and exquisite craftsmanship, sure to captivate the most discerning collectors.
