·FS: First Gen "-38" Movado 95M Chronograph in steel
Reference: 19038
Case: Famed Francois Borgel "FB" case in steel, appears to have been slightly polished as the lug facets have softened slightly (price reflects this), with original vertical bushing present on the mid case as pictured.
Crown: Original, unsigned low profile crown
Movement: The venerable 95M modular column wheel chronograph is in good working condition. Service history is unknown; I rarely wear a watch for more than a day and performance has been fine and correct to my observation. (that is to say, I don't have a timegrapher and I'm not a watchmaker, but I haven't had any issues with the watch winding, setting, running, and keeping time or being off on time enough that was noticeable.)
Dial: Original dial and hands in warm, evenly patinated condition. Hands are full, heat blued and radium filled, and the dial is evenly patinated across. There is some wear/smudging/fading of the tachy track in between 1-2, but between the domed crystal and the overall feel of it being an honestly used vintage watch, I have never found it to detract or disappoint
Bracelet: watch is sold head only.
Price: $3,800 USD shipped within the continental US. I'm located in the US and typically ship via ParcelPro, I will ship outside of the US at actual price generated at time of label creation. If you prefer an alternative shipping method, I'm open to discussing. Payment via PP F&F, Venmo F&F, Zelle, or Wire.
References: I have numerous references here, ChronoTrader, Reddit, WUS, eBay, Instagram, etc. Additional references available upon request:

About the watch: Just such a cool watch with a great history, first modular chronograph, FB case, the Kris Hands, etc., there's a great reference article on Rescapement here: https://www.rescapement.com/blog/for-your-reference-the-movado-fb-95m
I've had the watch since early 2021, and wear it sparingly. The only reason I'm selling is because I'm trying to thin the herd. I'm in the very fortunate position of feeling like I just have too many watches right now, and being as particular as I am, it's not easy to sell any as I love them all, including this great piece of vintage chronograph history. I will follow with straight iPhone shots taken in natural daylight with diffused light to the best of my meager abilities, but numerous additional photos can be seen on my instagram here as well.
