    Movado manual movement
    Crown at 12h00
    Marked Movado and A Ciarelli Roma on the dial
    Oversized steel case
    Unusual glass case back
    Discovered in a watch shop in Florence

    My best guess is it was a prototype produced by Movado for A Cairelli who were the main suppliers of watches to the Italian military
    But I have been unable to find a similar model. So Perhaps it was never ordered.

      Welcome to CW. Nice watch..your pictures aren't very good and it's hard to see the details, I'm on a phone but normally I can see details if the pictures are decent. What do you mean by..
      "Unusual glass case"? Is the back of the case glass? That what it appears in the picture? Or is the back off?

      This movement is often used in a Pocket Watch with 15 Jewels 4 Adjust.

      Thanks for the comments. To answer, the back of case is glass. It’s in position, not off
      Sorry about the photos, I’ve updated them and added 2 so the details should be easier to appreciate
