Movado Series 800 Men’s Chronograph Watch (2600110)

SERIES 800 is printed in red under the Movado name, and the rest of the dial gets on with the job: three chronograph registers, a date at four-thirty, and a set of markers bright enough to read without thinking about it. This is the sports end of the brand. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n Stainless steel throughout, with a brushed rotating bezel carrying a 60-minute scale in white and a lumed pip at the zero mark. The bezel edge is scalloped so it can be turned with wet or cold fingers. The crown sits between two pushers behind raised guards, and the case shoulders are broad – this reads as a tool watch, not a dress watch, from every angle. \n Dial and Legibility \n Black, with applied polished batons and broad arrow-tipped hands. The Movado dot sits at twelve where a marker would normally be, which is the one piece of brand signature on an otherwise conventional sports dial. Three sub-dials are arranged across the middle – elapsed seconds, elapsed minutes and elapsed hours – and the date window sits between four and five o’clock. SWISS MADE is printed at the base. \n Movement and Functions \n \n Chronograph – the pushers start, stop and reset the elapsed-time hands; the registers hold the reading until you reset them \n Date – a framed window at four-thirty \n Timing bezel – line the marker up with the minute hand to track a period without running the chronograph at all \n \n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n A steel three-row bracelet, brushed on the outer links with polished centres, tapering slightly towards the clasp. Sizing is by link removal – have a jeweller do it and keep the spare links, because a bracelet sized a link too long will let a heavy chronograph head roll to the side of the wrist. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants a Swiss chronograph that looks the part on a weekend and still passes at work. Black dial and steel is the least fussy combination in the Series 800 range. \n Care and Maintenance \n Rinse the bracelet occasionally in warm water and dry it thoroughly, especially where the links meet the clasp. Do not use the chronograph pushers while the watch is submerged or under a running tap – pushers are the weak point of any water seal. When the battery goes, use a watchmaker so the caseback gasket is reseated properly. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Movado \n Collection Series 800 \n Reference 2600110 \n Case Stainless steel, round \n Bezel Rotating, 60-minute scale \n Dial Black, applied batons, dot at twelve \n Functions Chronograph, date \n Bracelet Stainless steel \n Warranty 24 months \n \n Buying With Confidence \n A 24-month international manufacturer warranty covers the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
