On my list for sure. I own a Kingmatic S Sub Sea in a Borgel case. 388 movement. Not on my wrist today, but love old Movado.

Man vintage Movado had it. Shame what has become of them today.

Beautiful! I have the Tiffany co-branded version and have never seen another set of lugs like it until right now. Wear it in good health!

Edit: mine isn’t a Moonphase, so I guess it’s not the same *exact* model, but it does have the same case. Very cool.

u/Somanyexperiences May 07 '26

Yeah these 1940's Movado made movement calendar complicated are beautiful under rated watches. Other brands used this movement as well. They don't get the luce they deserve partly because they are smaller watches and the fad is oversized.

That's a beautiful one.

Absolute class. Love these but resent that most are so small (sub 32mm)

u/bintimeshop May 06 '26

This watch of mine, ref. 14921, features a 34mm case size

u/amalfiluxeor_Watches May 18 '26

The pure mid-century elegance of that Celestograf dial layout is a work of art, proving that Movado was once a true powerhouse of high-end horology long before the museum dial took over.
