Movado Ref 12717
From Chronopedia
Movado was one of the top brands in the early 20th century until the early 70's, producing high quality watches, often associated with the pilots.
The Movado Ref 12717, is one of the rarest of the Movado steel pilot watches, believed to have been produced between 1936 and 1938. Unfortunately the current Movado brand, shares no affiliation to the original, and as such has no archive to access. It is unique in that it is the only other Steel pilot watch that shares almost identical physical attributes to the famed IWC MK IX, a name unofficially 'coined' being the precursor to the *DD IWC - International Watch Company, and there after * IWC Mk11
