This vintage Movado, Ref. 18271, is a remarkable example of a watch transformed by time, boasting a spectacular and deeply patinated “tropical” dial. The original surface has aged into a warm, golden-yellow hue with a heavy, bubble-like texture, creating a look that is entirely unique. In a testament to its fine craftsmanship, all elements on the dial are individually applied, including the faceted dagger indices, the Arabic numerals at the cardinal points, and most impressively, the individual letters of the “MOVADO” logo. Elegant, aged leaf hands and a delicate central seconds hand sweep across this dynamic surface.This stunning dial is housed in a classic Calatrava-style stainless steel case with a fixed bezel and sharp, faceted lugs, making it a truly one-of-a-kind piece.
