At the heart of this exceptional Movado Super Sub Sea beats the legendary Movado Caliber M95 – one of the finest chronograph movements of the 20th century, easily competing at the time with Rolex, Heuer, and Omega. The rare M95 movement combined with the black galvanic dial gives this chronograph its unique magic and makes it one of the most coveted pieces of its era.
This Movado Super Sub Sea is more than just a watch – it is a frozen piece of watchmaking history. As one of the most desirable diver's watches produced by Movado during the 1960s, it perfectly embodies the golden age of mechanical chronographs.
The galvanic reverse-panda dial with silver sub-dials is preserved in excellent condition, captivating with a natural, even patina that beautifully reflects the watch's age and lends it a unique aura. Particularly charming are the elegant serpentine hands on the sub registers – a distinctive design trait of the M95 chronographs. The original luminous material on the hands and markers has remained intact, adding to the harmonious vintage look.
The generous 40 mm stainless steel case impresses with its sharp lines, well-preserved chamfers and crisp edges. Its rotating bezel completes the sporty yet elegant appearance.
This reference 95-704-541 belongs to the very last executions produced before the merger with Zenith – making it an absolute rarity. It is an invitation into the past: a timepiece that, in its superb original condition, captures the soul of an entire era.
