"30ish years of martial arts and I've actually had the honor of training lots of LEO, spec ops and even SEAL team 6 on base, fitness training, not martial arts, but still the coolest thing I've done.
Full on egg head corporate job and I fly quite a bit so I'm really looking forward to adding to my collection of TSA friendly self defense tools. I have amcouple tactical pens, but I want to up the game and get into some custom stuff. Been watch obsessed for a while but this seems more fun.
Thanks for letting me play! "

I've only owned one Movado, a 60's Sea Sub, so I'm no expert..
But that one linked above looks a bit off. The sub reg hands are all different, the sub reg markings are low rent, the 24 hr red markings are way off line.. and over printed on the sub regs.

And this is why it's so dumb for me to buy vintage

The easy solution... buy vintage from someone you trust.

nice watches, but this one's an old re-dial...
all originals w/ Cal.95 are usually pretty spectacular, altho small by today's standards...
