The Movado Sapphire is a futuristic interpretation of the Museum watch protected by a flat, dark metalized sapphire crystal. Available with a solid stainless steel case and bracelet or with a black PVD-finish case on a black leather strap, the Movado sapphire sports the iconic black Museum dial.
Defined by a single dot at 12 representing the sun at high noon, the museum dial is regarded as an icon of Modernism. It was designed by Bauhaus-influenced artist Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. When Horwitt'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.
The Movado Sapphire is driven by precision Swiss-quartz movement and is water resistant to 30m
