I like the left one better. The design is similar to the Norwegian Airforce M90. But the other one looks a little less worn...

Correct. Hammer 11k CHF in December. Nice piece.


Not loving the representation and presentation of this watch by Mim & Crocket as NOS.
Some of case scratches are invisible in some of their photos. Initially I thought the case had been refreshed, but seems to be the photos masking them.

After several attempts I was finally able to find a good example.

thanks Mark.

They take proper pics so I am not too upset. But sure; it is not NOS. People often misuse the term. Same with ”Mint condition”. 😀

I was bitten by the midcentury Movado chronograph bug last summer and finally was able to land an example with a pulsations scale in the condition I was looking for. I searched a few times on here but couldn't find a thread dedicated to the M90/95, which seems a shame give the number of fantastic dials and cases they made in their heyday (I know there's one for the Super Subsea, but that's its own thing).

Would be great to see the examples that OF members have as there's not a lot publicized about these. Here's mine.



Also, here's the best reference on M95s that I know exists. I like the Fritz von Osterhausen Movado book but it doesn't have much technical detail. Hopefully someone will pull together a similar dataset for the M90 one day.[/QUOT

And most likely some other - never seen - references exist.... 9021, 9022, 9024, 9028, 9030, 9031, 9032

Tagging @Mark020 since you're the resident expert.

I have a 95M in a pretty-ok-for-it's-age 1595 case. It's a redial and I've been semi-actively on the lookout for a dial to put in its place. There's a pretty beat up dial on ebay that's been there for a while and I got an offer from the seller at 40% their original, too high asking price. Do you think it fits with the watch / would it look ok? I know it's based on my tastes and all, but I value your input and opinion.

The dial:

You have a 19038 which is 35mm. If I measure mine - from the outside - the dial is 30mm(ish). The dial advertised is 28.9mm and I think that is too small
