Movado - Serie 800 - Cronografo - Full Set - No reserve price - Men - 2000-2010

Fascinating and muscular Movado Series 800 Chronograph men's wristwatch, a model with a sporty yet refined aesthetic that fully embodies the prestige of Movado, the celebrated Swiss maison founded in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds and renowned worldwide for its minimalist, avant-garde design philosophy. The Series 800 collection, first introduced in 2006, represents the manufacture's ultimate expression of the luxury sports timepiece, designed to combine extreme performance with formal style. This particular example stands out for its imposing presence and exclusive all-black look, achieved with a complete deep black PVD coating in a combination of satin and polished finishes. The stunning, deep black dial is adorned at 12 o'clock with the iconic concave, mirror-polished silver “Dot” (an unmistakable signature inspired by the legendary Museum Watch), surrounded by three finely crafted chronograph subdials with concentric-circle textures, applied geometric indices, and highly visible luminescent hands. The oversized case is topped by a bold, two-tone, knurled unidirectional rotating bezel and sturdy pump-style chronograph pushers, completing its luxury diver character.
The watch is in absolutely splendid, like-new condition—a beautifully preserved piece comparable to new old stock (NOS), completely free of even the slightest mark or hairline scratch. The solid stainless steel caseback, secured by six safety screws, features a large central raised “Movado Series 800” engraving and the reference engraved along the edge, together with its exceptional water resistance of 200 meters (20 ATM). Inside beats a highly reliable and precise Swiss-made quartz chronograph movement, running perfectly and tested in all its split-time and hand-reset functions. The piece is offered as a Full Set, complete with its outer box, original luxurious black Movado cubic presentation box, and the original official instruction booklet/international warranty booklet, left blank (unfilled). The timepiece is completed by its sumptuous original integrated bracelet, with three broad rows of links featuring a satin finish and polished center profiles in black PVD. Its concealed folding clasp with safety push-buttons proudly bears the stamped “M” monogram.
