    Here is a rare piece for those who like Movado.
    This is a 60 Anniversary Limited Edition, Automatic too!
    The case is covered in a sapphire crystal! It is hard to photograph, but there is a thick layer of sapphire glass covering the case. Also the center portion of the links have sapphire links in them.

    This is a very cool and very limited piece.

    Retail is $3999

    Doesn't matter in this specific case as the watch is sold. :(

    But it is available with white or black face, and a bracelet option.

    A GMT generally means it has two hour hands, that are set separately, so you can display two time zones at once.

    Thank you Chris for your awesome service and support of this site!

    Best,
    James
