More About Movado Museum Watch

Watch is a way to tell your personal character, beside it is a time pieces. Movado has been one of the beautify design on his dial

Defined by a Single Dot at 12 representing the Sun at High Moon!
The Museum Watch dial is regarded as an Icon of Modernism. This watch was design by Bauhaus-influenced Artist Nathan George Harwitt in 1947.
When Harwitt 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.

Watch Shops ta HKIA

There are a few watch shop at HKIA, Tiffany, Cartier, IWC...
From my experience, I find that IWC and Tiffany has the best sales people, as they are more eager to explain to you waht they are selling and they have good knmowledge on their product. At IWC. I am sure you can find those beautiful, kind sales executives like Ruby and Jasmine could provide you a good explanation on their watches...design and detail of the structure..


Whereas Cartier... may be I met the green horn, it seems they do not know their product much, even they can not tell difference of Sterling Silver and vermiel... Even What Cartier Santos is!? beleive it or not? go and try.

Blancpain

Blancpain started the watch manufacturing since 1735. An early small Swiss Watch company that they actually using a farm house as the factory.

I had the very first Blancpain watch in 1990. I had found that the watch was very accurate.
As I always mentioned, the Accuracy of a watch reflects how seriously the watchsmith and Engineer maintin the component precision, asembly process, material studies, material selection and experinece and Skill that they commit to Make that Watch.... I am expecting a Good watch should have at least 30 PPM accuracy per day as an average for time taking in 2 weeks, My Blanpain can make it.. and Surprisingly until today I still had it running as good as perfect as it was purchased 20 years ago....

Green is Rolex, Rolex is Green

As a Tradition, Rolex used to Apply Green Colour on their watches, Watch boxes, warranty Certificates and and Catalogue.

This is a 1982 Rolex Day Date with Green Rolex enamel Dial... 18Ct Solid Gold with rubies and Diamonds on the bezel. Looks like new!

This kind of enamel Dial surface will have crack lines after 15-20 years. This Sample does also have some lines of micro crack on the dial. That may be due to the enamel process has some impurity or may be the delimination between the enamel and the dial base material after years of Temperature cycles.

The cause of the crack line is unknown to me. Anyway, this crack lines is the reflection of natural aging of this Beautiful Rolex.

Seems there is no perfect enamel dial. I am not sure if the new enamel process is improved or not?

How to tell a Cartier is Fake!?

Let's look at the Roman figure VII, the V is consisting of a word "Cartier" on it Marked with a RED circle as shown.

I found this when I got my first Santos Cartier watch in 1978, this Tradition remains. Some of the Lady watch the Roman figure XI, The " / " is made up with a "Cartier"

The fake watch had a hard time to print this small "Cartier' on the dial... Nowadays I beleive the Fake watch are made up this cartier as part of the roman Figure, but they are not as clear and as Precise as the Original Cartier... It is easy to tell ...
