Movado Manual Wind – 18K Yellow Gold Stamped Gold Dial

Trade In
Details

High Craft From A Golden Era

In the 1970s, an 18k yellow gold Movado represented the brand at its highest level of finishing. This example features a unique stamped gold dial that offers a depth and texture not found on standard dress watches of the period. The small seconds at six o'clock keeps the layout traditional while the solid gold construction makes it clear this was a premium offering.

Stamped Gold And Solid Presence

While many watches from this era relied on simple sunburst finishes, the texture on this dial provides a distinct visual character. The weight of the 18k gold case gives it a nice presence on the wrist.

Honest Condition On A Fresh Strap

The 18k gold case shows signs of wear consistent with its age, including surface scratches and minor dings. The crystal has several visible scratches throughout. The stamped gold dial remains in good condition overall, though some faint scratches are visible under close inspection. It's paired with a new aftermarket strap and buckle. The movement is running strong after passing our test bench.

A Distinct Choice For The Gold Collector

This piece is in overall good condition. It's a sophisticated solid gold piece without the predictability of more hyped brands. The dial texture makes it a specific conversation piece that feels more personal than a standard dress watch. It remains a wearable and elegant option that carries a significant amount of material value and historical interest.

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
