Suggestions on replacement - Movado
Hi all,
I didn't want to hijack someone else's thread. I'm looking for something to replace my beloved Movado. I've had it about 20 years. A few? years ago, I replaced the mechanism. I just brought it to the jeweler to replace the battery, but they just called. It's not the battery. I'm hoping it's the mechanism again. Anyway, I really love this watch. It's sleek, feminine and I like the size. It works for daily wear and dress up nights. I've been googling around looking for something similar style wise, but most of what I see are big, round faced watches. I'm not a watch buff so I have no clue where to look as far as specific brands. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the crappy picture. I found a Rado that's close. And a Cartier but I'm not loving the face.

another Movado ?
on the pricey side is RADO, kind of a 1980's throwback neat piece. https://www.rado.com/en_us/ceramica-...r21702722.html then Bulova or Citizen offer small women watches https://www.bulova.com/us/en/product...ml?cgid=womens then the ultimate small women's watch https://www.jaeger-lecoultre.com/us-...steel-q2608440 Then these very nice pieces https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-int...re-quartz.html |

Rolex Lady-Datejust, 28mm (automatic)
A bunch of variations....just visit the Rolex website. https://www.rolex.com/watches/lady-d...-0007/bracelet Might take a while though before you can get one at MSRP.... And if you want to stick with a small quartz watch, Cartier Tank.... https://www.cartier.com/en-us/watches/womens-watches/

That's pretty, thank you. I'll check it out. It's in the running. I can see me winding up with more than one

I would get the new movement because it it shared by many other makes. My Tag/Heuer needed a new engine and it only cost me $60 which was a brand new original Swiss Ronda quartz mvt. |

Seiko tends to punch above their weight in quality vs price. Here are a couple similar examples to your Movado:

I got my new watch. Love it. Thanks all. Now I have to see if the Movado can be repaired.

It's pretty for everyday wear but the one shown in earlier posts with the diamonds has got me considering another

If you don't have to many watches, go for it. I know people say that you can never have enough watches. But how often do you wear a watch when you have 20 or 30+ watches. I probably have over 20 watches and I find myself wearing the same 5-6 watches all the time. |

Good luck 👍. I also wear a couple of my older watches all the time, you get used to them, so I just grab one of them over a newer one. |
