    Only 14k but it's solid gold. Thanks for the kind words.

    Nothing going wrong with the occasional redial, if the watch is otherwise worth it. And some of the old redials are very good

    I completely agree with very rare watches. In some cases it's better to have an example than no example at all. This I have an original dial for and I got 10% cashback on eBay.

    Nice save!
    Nasty: I'm not sure about the crown.
    Friday feeling: I wish I could afford the gold ones...

    The crown probably isn't original but it looks ok on the watch. For the price I paid I can't complain. Not everything is a nos 2915...

    I'm breddy shure Wadsworth made the cases for these Movados. Those lugs are so nice. This one is 34mm, yes?

    I think Truman Capote wore one of these.

    Is this 32mm or 34mm?

    That entire watch looks to be in stellar condition - I really like those faceted lugs - very pretty.

    I've a couple of these in 14k but was never able to find one I like in SS.

    Nothing wrong with a well done redial
    Redials have a place in restoring watches. If a dial is so far gone you may not have another choice finding a donor dial is not always possible

    It's about 34. While Wadsworth did make some cases this one was made by a Swiss case maker. Gotta love the squirrel 14k.

    Thanks, this one is 32mm. For me thats ok, obviously a 34 or 36mm is more watch.
    In general, Movado watches really balances the dial and case in a good way.
