Movado Calendograph Salmon

The Movado ref.14820 is one of those rare pieces where every detail speaks of a bygone era of elegance and craftsmanship. Produced in the mid-20th century, it embodies the refined spirit of Movado’s golden years, when the brand was pioneering design and precision in equal measure. Its triple step steel case immediately stands out – a subtle architectural construction that plays with light and shadow, giving the watch an unmistakable presence on the wrist. The fancy lugs, elongated and sculptural, are another highlight: they are not merely functional but artistic, blending seamlessly into the lines of the case and bracelet.

The salmon dial is exceptionally charismatic, a tone highly coveted by collectors for its warmth and versatility. Its original luminous plots and hands remain intact, a testament to the watch’s authenticity and untouched charm. Movado’s attention to dial layout and proportion makes this piece both practical and aesthetically balanced, staying true to its Art Deco inspirations.

Adding to its uniqueness is the nude steel Art Deco bracelet, a period-correct companion to the case that enhances the overall personality of the watch. Together, case and bracelet create a unified design language – one that is rare to encounter in today’s market.

More than just a vintage timepiece, the Movado Calendograph is a slice of design history. Its originality, distinctive details, and timeless beauty make it a collector’s watch that resonates far beyond its era, capturing the essence of Movado’s mastery in steel.
