Movado Men’s 606191 Stiri Stainless Steel Watch
- Precise Swiss-quartz movement
- Scratch resistant sapphire crystal
- Stainless-steel case; black dial
- Stainless-steel bracelet with a secure deployment-clasp-with-push-button
- Water-resistant to 99 feet (30 M)
This Movado Stiri timepiece for men features the utterly recognizable, minimalist look of the Museum Watch, made famous by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. It’s paired with a stainless steel bracelet band that mixes larger brushed links with polished accents, and it’s connected via a hidden butterfly deployment clasp. The deep black dial face includes just the signature single dotted marker at 12 o’clock–evocative of a sun dial–and two sword-shaped hands. (Movado’s Museum watch is often referred to as the “boss’s watch” due to its vague display of time and because the boss doesn’t have to be on time.) Powered by a precise Swiss quartz movement, it also features a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet)–enabling it to withstand splashes and accidental dunks into the water, but not suitable for swimming.

Slip a true classic onto your wrist with this Movado Museum stainless steel Swiss quartz watch for men, which features the utterly recognizable, minimalist look of the Museum Watch, made famous by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Defined by a single dot at 12 o’clock representing the sun at high noon, the Museum Watch’s uncluttered dial is regarded as an icon of Modernism, and it was the first watch dial ever selected to be part of New York’s Museum of Modern Art’s permanent collection.
The deep black dial face includes just the signature single dotted marker at 12 o’clock–evocative of a sun dial–and two silver hands. (Movado’s Museum watch is often referred to as the “boss’s watch” due to its vague display of time and because the boss doesn’t have to be on time.) Powered by a precise Swiss quartz movement, it also features a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet)–enabling it to withstand splashes and accidental dunks into the water, but not suitable for swimming. It’s completed by a textured leather strap in black with tonal stitching.

- Precise Swiss-quartz movement
- Stainless steel case and bezel; genuine black leather strap; stainless steel buckle
- Scratch resistant sapphire crystal
- Water-resistant to 99 feet (30 M)
This ultra-sleek Men’s Museum dial watch is the essence of simplicity and style. It features a perfectly round black Museum dial with slender silver-tone hands and a single concave dot at the twelve o’clock position. This is the minimalist look made famous for Movado by American designer Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. Horwitt intended his design to be evocative of a sun dial, with the dot representing the sun at high noon. The black dial is housed in an ultra-thin stainless steel case measuring 31mm wide and framed by a steel bezel with slightly elongated lugs. It presents on a sleek black calfskin strap that tapers slightly toward the ends and fastens with a stainless steel buckle closure. This watch features a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and precise Swiss quartz movement. Water-resistant to 30 meters, it can withstand splashes and brief immersion in water; however, it is not sufficiently resistant for swimming.
About Movado
Movado, one of the most celebrated watch brands in the world, traces its origins to the small village of La Chaux-de-faunds, Switzerland where, in 1881, a young watchmaker named Achille Ditesheim hired six assistants and opened a small workshop. He called his company Movado, a word which means, roughly, “always in motion.” The company grew and prospered, evolving from a small pocketwatch manufacturer into a leading innovator and designer of precision wristwatches. Throughout its history, Movado has maintained its place at the pinnacle of innovation and excellence in design, craftsmanship and technology. Movado watches are crafted by highly-skilled watchmakers to meet the exacting standards of Swiss time technology. They are accurate to within seconds a year. All Movado watches are sealed and protected against water, moisture and dust, and individually tested to meet strict international standards of quality. A long-time dedicated supporter of the arts, Movado has, itself, been the recipient of over 200 international awards. Movado watches can now be found in the permanent collections of over 20 museums worldwide.

Movado, meaning “always in motion” in the international language of Esperanto, is the hallmark of some of the most famous timepieces ever created: the 1912 Polyplan, its revolutionary, patented movement constructed on three planes to fit a case curved to follow the wrist…the WWI Soldier’s Watch with its elegant, protective grill…the 1927 Ermeto, a capsule-shaped pocket watch wound by the sliding motion of its case…the innovative 1950’s Kingmatic series of rotor-driven automatics…the Movado Artist’s Series by luminaries of the fine art world…and the Movado Museum® Watch with its legendary dial. Defined by a single dot at 12 representing the sun at high noon, the Museum Watch dial is regarded as an icon of Modernism. It was designed by Bauhaus-influenced artist Nathan George Horwitt in 1947. When Horwitt’s dial was selected for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1960, it was the first watch dial ever awarded this distinction. The name “Museum Watch” derives from this recognition. Today, Movado watches are in prominent museums worldwide, and this legendary dial distinguishes an entire collection of singular timepieces. The Movado Boutiques extend the Movado brand philosophy of design innovation beyond watches to a range of products for modern living. Exclusive offerings include the proprietary and patented 114-facet Movado Diamond™ jewelry collection, Movado’s own modern 18K gold, diamond, sterling silver and gemstone jewelry, signature pens and personal accessories, Movado clocks and fine Swiss watches. Excellence in design. A dedication to Swiss craftsmanship. The quest for technological innovation. The Movado philosophy remains as valid as it was in 1881. Swiss made and water resistant, all Movado watches are distinguished by a legacy of design innovation and dedication to the future of time.
