Vintage Movado watches

are some of the most undervalued, overlooked and misunderstood pieces on the market IMHO. I mean, tell me another brand that can offer you inhouse movements, Francois Borgel cases with thick gold plating (40 instead of 20 Microns) and massive gold dials i...  

I totally agree

There are some true gems to be discovered. I love mine - a F. Borel case and an immaculate radium-lumed dial. ...  

Wow, that is an extremely attractive watch!

And it confirms my statement about Movado.

Oh yes, this one, too!!!

Indeed, an M90 or M95 Chronograph would also be a nice piece,

the clous de paris dial is indeed something that makes this particular model stand out from the crowd. Definitely not an understatement-piece!

Agreed Movado are really understated !

Here is mine from the late 40's: How to know whether case is from Borel ? ...  

I'm not an expert,

but I think when there is a key and F.B. symbol on the inside of caseback like this: You know it is a Francois Borgel case. Nice watch by the way! ...  

I agree. My three vintage ones.
