1960s Movado Super Sub Sea Chronograph

When most people think of Movado these days, they likely think of the cheap minimalist pieces hawked at the jewelry counter at Macy’s. However, most serious watch collectors know this brand had a storied past, a rich heritage, and produced some incredibly special wristwatches as early as the 1930s. In fact, Movado was one of the industry’s leading manufacturers of dive watches by the early 1960s. During this era, Movado created models that directly competed against legendary brands like Rolex, Omega,and Blancpain, and among all of Movado’s great divers, the Super Sub-Sea models are considered some of the most desirable vintage Movado watches ever made. In our latest episode of What Is On My Wrist, Craft + Tailored’s CEO Cameron Barr descends deep into the details of a remarkably well-preserved 1960s Movado Super Sub-Sea Chronograph ref. 95-704-541 and explains the unique history of this standout model, and why it’s considered one of the most desirable vintage Movado watches ever made!

1969 reverse Panda dial Movado Datachron automatic chronograph was a stunning & very legible toolwatch (as used onboard NASA space station Skylab in 1973-1974).

1970-1971 reverse Panda dial Movado Datachron HS360 automatic chronograph was a stunning & very legible toolwatch (Commander Gerald Carr used a HS360 onboard NASA space station Skylab in 1973-1974, together with William Pogue's Seiko 6139-6005 the very first automatic chronographs used in space).
