Movado
Vintage triple calendar moonphase
Vintage Movado triple calendar moonphase wristwatch. The timepiece features a round, cream-colored dial enclosed in a silver-toned metal case, complete with a prominent winding crown and a side pusher. Below the 12 o'clock marker, two rectangular calendar apertures display the day and month in Spanish, reading "ENE" (Enero / January) and "MAR" (Martes / Tuesday), with the printed Movado brand name positioned directly underneath. Elegant gold-toned hour and minute hands point to alternating dot markers and an Arabic numeral "12," while a distinct red-tipped pointer hand sweeps toward an outer date track to indicate the day of the month. A detailed moonphase complication is integrated into the sub-dial at the 6 o'clock position, and the watch is fitted with a textured brown leather strap. The picture itself is a photograph taken of a digital display, evidenced by a magnifying glass cursor hovering near the moonphase indicator and an "ENLARGE & ZOOM" interface option visible in the bottom right corner.

Catalogue note
This vintage timepiece is a quintessential example of Movado’s mid-century horological mastery, highly prized by collectors for its sophisticated triple calendar and moonphase complications. Encased in a classic silver-toned housing with robust proportions, the watch features an elegant, beautifully patinated cream dial that balances functionality with refined aesthetics. The rare Spanish-language calendar apertures—displaying "ENE" (January) and "MAR" (Tuesday)—suggest a distinctive provenance or a targeted release for the Iberian or Latin American markets, adding a unique layer of historical interest. Driven by a complex mechanical movement that tracks the date via a striking red-tipped pointer hand and monitors the lunar cycle at the 6 o'clock register, this reference embodies the peak of Movado’s era as an independent premier manufacturer of complicated wristwatches.
