Wedding Party Watches

Fashionable Movado Time

Time never stands still is a very popular adage, perhaps referring to the constant motion of the world we live in. In regards to wristwatches one has to wonder if the phrase was designed to represent timepieces with sweeping second hands. Interestingly there are two types of sweeping second hand movements on today’s wristwatches: automatic and quartz. Automatic watches have a smooth second hand operation that runs continuously in a fluid sweeping movement.
