MOVADO FOR TIFFANY & CO. A POSSIBLY UNIQUE STAINLESS STEEL CHRONOGRAPH WRISTWATCH WITH BLACK DIAL FOR 30 PULSATIONS

Sometimes, vintage wristwatches have an immediate 'wow’ factor, capturing one’s attention by their incredible good looks, amazing condition and rarity. The present steel Movado chronograph retailed by 'Tiffany & Co.' with black glossy pulsometer dial and silver printing is one of these extraordinary vintage timepieces.

The so-called ‘medical’ dial of the present watch has a scale graduated for a 30 pulsations. The ‘pulsometer’ dial version was intended for use in the medical profession and was usually provided as a special order.

The present Movado chronograph is powered by the manual-wound caliber M90. This caliber was highly appreciated in its day due to its ease of use and serviceability. The M90 has two subsidiary registers and were relatively slim despite the chronograph complication. This allowed for a flat and elegant case design. Interestingly, the M90 movement operates in the opposite way to most standard chronographs: the lower pusher starts and stops the chronograph ; the upper pusher resets it.

A stunning vintage chronograph, the present watch would be hard to beat in terms of style, impact, condition and rarity and would be a superb and wearable addition to any collection.
