Movado Amorosa Ladies Watch

Ladies, are you in search of a gorgeous watch that is as sleek and sophisticated as you are, with exquisite style and undeniable class?  In one look, you will surely find that the Movado Amorosa 0604984 Ladies Watch is your ideal match.

The beautiful time piece and accessory is a classically styled ladies watch made of steel and plated in 18 karat gold.  The steel ensures that your watch will be strong enough to grace your wrist for years to come, while the gold creates a soft, sensual glow that will fit you so well.  The yellow gold also emphasizes the matte black face of the watch, providing excellent contrast for reading.  Nine diamonds form a block at the top of the watch, with an additional nine blocked at the bottom.  The diamonds add just the right amount of sparkle to the overall design of the watch to make it pop and set it aside from the hundreds of yellow gold watches that are available today.  Swiss quartz movement provides excellent quality of function.  Finally, a bangle styled bracelet completes the look of this gorgeous lady’s watch.

As with most products, there is not a single ideal watch for every woman in search of a quality time piece, and even this exquisite style will not be right for everyone.  This particular watch has a few features that make it less than ideal for some women.  The bangle bracelet, for instance, does not allow for a close fit.  This means that there will be movement of this watch on your wrist, and you will likely have to jiggle it around to see the time.  Also, there are no numerals on the watch face.  While the stark contrast between the black face of the time piece and the yellow gold of the casing will provide an excellent view of the time, the lack of numerals will allow you only a general idea of what exactly the time is.

With 18 karat gold plating, solid steel within providing strength of durability, a sleek design, a total of 18 diamonds, and a price tag of only $1,200, the Movado Amorosa 0604984 Ladies Watch is absolutely a quality product for your dollar.  This watch is ideal for everyday use, with enough subtlety to blend seamlessly in to any ensemble, plus enough style and sophistication to still be a statement piece.  Essentially, this watch is perfect for the modern professional woman.

Who needs numbers, anyway?

With Movado‘s founding in 1881, over a hundred years in the business creates some quality, innovative products. A simple scroll through the company’s gallery will display a slew of astounding luxury watches. The Bela 0606243 watch  is a simple, but by no means unimpressive design; in fact, it’s rather striking.

The Movado Museum design is one I’ve never seen before, and it’s the first thing you’ll notice looking at this watch. That’s the design of the dial; it’s completely blank ( in this case it’s pink ) except for a single circle in the upper center. This is an extremely intriguing artistic statement, and the watch at this point seems almost more fashion than function if worn. Of course the hands – only hour and minute – still work perfectly, and will tell time, at least approximately, at a glance.

While I’m busy trying to decide whether I like the museum dial ( I’m pretty sure I do), I’ll shift focus to the diamonds. Diamonds are usually a good place to focus, anyway, and they are placed quite appealingly on the Bela. On opposite edges of the case, they frame the dial appealingly and add some glitter to the otherwise smooth shine of steel surrounding the watch. The casing, otherwise, is minimalistic; in fact, there’s really not much to say about it. It’s round, smooth, elegant, and serviceable.

That lack of markings, along with its simple design, makes the Bela more of a fashion accessory than a watch, and in this role it excels. Of course like all fashion accessories, the value of the selection depends on the person selecting it, but the diamond-decorated Bela is certainly a striking choice. With a price at just under a thousand dollars, it’s actually on the lesser side of luxury watches, and the unique design may be worth it to the right people. The Bela is also available in black, and with rectangular dials, so some choices can be found with a visit to the Movado website. If your eye is caught by the Bela, taking a look at these choices couldn’t hurt.

A view of the Amorosa with Diamonds.

Movado’s Amorosa with Diamonds 0604983–a women’s luxury watch–is as beautiful as it is unique. This watch will enchant as you wear it from work to a fancy party—just be sure that you have another timekeeper with you if you need to know exactly what time it is.

The 0604983 is marked for $1,095 on Movado’s website, a comparatively cheap price compared to other luxury watches—especially those with diamonds. Movado achieves this by using two different tones of stainless steel in place of gold for the bracelet and case. Since the parts have been polished so well, the effect is almost indistinguishable from gold, though it remains far less expensive. Silver stainless steel wraps around the front of the wrist in two sleek bands, which end by encircling the black face of the dial. Gold stainless steel highlights the rest—the squares suspended above and below the face that contain nine SI diamonds apiece, the crown, the sharp minute and hour hands, and the dot at 12 o’clock that represents the sun at high noon—the only mark on the face other than the small gold letters that read “swiss MOVADO made” around 6 o’clock. The bracelet is 8 inches long with a jewelry type clasp, but can be made to fit 6.5 to 7.5 inch wrists as well, or can have extra links added for larger wrists. The watch will keep typle reliably with its Swiss Quartz movement, which works within the 24 mm diameter case—a size too small for women who want a bolder style, but for others, perfect. The Amorosa’s water resistance rating is 3 ATM, so it’s good for hand-washing and other everyday wear, but don’t take it in the shower.

I love the look of this watch—the clean dial and sleek bracelet makes it a truly beautiful piece of jewelry—but as far as telling the time goes, the 0604983’s lack of markings could be a problem. You can probably tell what hour it is, but the exact minute? Likely not. If you wear the watch to your job and can only have a 3 minute break or if you need the exact time in order to catch the train, you might run into problems with the Amorosa without your cell phone or other timing device to serve as back-up. Another issue is that the model’s stainless steel composition, while inexpensive and as lustrous as gold now, will dull over time and lose its shine. It’s durable, but its beauty won’t last indefinitely.

If you like the look of this elegant watch and don’t care about exact times or longevity, the Movado Amorosa with Diamonds 0604983 would be a great pick. But if these things do matter to you, seek elsewhere for your women’s luxury timepiece.

You will find that youcan wear it everyday whether it is sweatshirt day, or a cocktail dress evening.

The Women’s Amorosa watch has a Stainless Steel case and bangle bracelet. The dial is black Museum, which was created by Nathan George Horwitt in 1947 as the first artist to explore the concept of time as design. So not only is it a watch but a piece of traditional art going back more than half a century. The watch’s movement if of well trusted Swiss quartz.

Pros :

• For a designer watch the price tag isn’t bad. On the manufacturer’s website it runs for $495, but a little birdy told me you can get it for much less on Amazon.com.
• The face of the watch can take quite the beating and remain utterly unmarked.
• Because the watch is so simple, it is a timepiece that won’t easily go out of fashion and will remain a classical timepiece through out the years.
• Wears like a comfortable bracelet.

Cons:

• If you do not purchase this watch from the manufacturer’s website you won’t receive the warranty, and if it breaks jewelers will often say it needs to be repaired by an Authorized Movado Service.
• Telling the time on this watch takes some serious getting used to. Because the dial is solid black, with out numerals or markers of any kind besides the trademark dot at 12 o’clock, telling the exact time is a challenge.
• May steadily lose minutes (even with the battery changed) after several years of use.

Variations to the Stainless Steel Amorosa include: Stainless Steel with two gold links, all gold instead of Stainless Steel, Stainless Steel with 18 diamonds spread out between two links, and Stainless Steel, plus two gold links, set with 9 diamonds in each, or a slight variation there of.

Who is this watch for? When looking at this watch I couldn’t help but think about its practicality as a timepiece. I had been looking at other watches with chronographs, subdials, and high water resistance. As a hard-core, time telling wrist watch, the Amorosa isn’t it. BUT if you are a woman or know a woman who likes her wrist adornment to be one part jewelry, one part art piece, and one part time- teller, than the Amorosa Stainless-Steel Bangle Bracelet may be just the item for you!
