Replica Movado Watches
Movado is a Swiss luxury watch company whose name is Esperanto for "movement". Movado was founded in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland by Achilles Ditesheim. The company was purchased by watch baron Gedalio Grinberg of New York in 1983; his son Efraim retired from being the company's current president and chief executive officer at age 50. The current president of Movado is Jeff Cohen.

The company is currently known for its range of Museum watches which feature black clock faces and a single gold dot at the twelve o'clock position. The original Museum Watch was the first wrist watch to be displayed at the Museum of Modern Art and was designed by the American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Horwitt intended it to be evocative of a sun dial, with the dot representing the sun at high noon. This most recognizable look of a Movado is a simple hour and minute hand, with a solid background and a single depressed circle on the 12:00 mark. The Museum Dial, Movado's signature design, has no markings on for minutes or hours (although some of Movado's other designs now do).

In addition to its design, Movado watches tend to be regarded for being light. Most Movado styles include the use of sapphire crystal, which is highly scratch resistant and thus used by most watchmaking companies.

The company supported the construction of a public clock which was designed by the architect Philip Johnson, located outside Lincoln Center in New York City. In 2006, Movado celebrated its 125th year of watchmaking. With its watches set in museum collections around the world, the Movado Company has made its mark of success on the world. Its frequent publicity in famous magazines and other publications furthers this success.

Currently, Movado watches utilize both quartz and automatic movements in their timepieces. The Movado Group, Inc. also markets other watch brands: Concord, Ebel, ESQ Swiss, Coach Watches, Hugo Boss Watches, Tommy Hilfiger, Juicy Couture, Lacoste Watches and RALCO.
