Movado’s Museum Dial: A Design Icon in Modern Watchmaking

Few watches have achieved true icon status, but the Movado Museum Dial is one of them. Designed in 1947 by artist Nathan George Horwitt, the single dot at 12 o’clock represents the sun at high noon—a minimalist expression of time that has earned a permanent place in the Museum of Modern Art.

More than just a design statement, the Museum Dial reflects Movado’s philosophy: to create artful, modern watches that blend simplicity with sophistication. The brand continues to evolve, introducing contemporary interpretations of the Museum Dial in sleek, cutting-edge styles.

Whether you choose the original stainless steel version or a modern iteration in bold black or gold, a Movado watch makes a powerful statement—without saying a word.
