This Movado wristwatch, reference 4823, dates to approximately 1940 and features a complex triple calendar movement with a moon phase complication. The timepiece is housed in a round 18K gold case measuring 34mm, characterized by a reeded band, bull horn lugs, and quick-set buttons positioned at 8 and 10 o'clock.
Its silvered dial displays applied alternating gilt dot and Arabic numeral hour markers, with a black outer minute track and blue outer calendar markers. Distinctive apertures for the day and month are located beneath the 12 o'clock position, while the subsidiary seconds dial integrated with a moon phase display sits at the 6 o'clock position. The hands include gilt dagger-style indicators and a central red-tipped calendar hand.
The watch is powered by an 18-jewel Caliber 473 manual wind movement. It is fitted with an associated brown alligator leather strap and a gilt buckle. The case, dial, and movement are signed by Movado.
