We're thrilled to offer this exclusive collection to our consumers and collectors worldwide."
"It's been a pleasure to collaborate with such a forward-thinking team at Movado, and I'm incredibly proud of what we've created together," said Derrick Adams in a press release. "Time, much like art, is something we experience, interpret, and cherish in unique ways, and each watch represents not just the passage of time, but moments of inspiration and individuality. The watches in this collection were designed with the same level of dedication and attention to detail as a gallery piece, and I wanted to ensure each one felt personal for its wearer. For me, it's about producing something that lasts, resonates, and captures the essence of who we are at this moment in time, and Movado's watches exemplify this concept to the fullest."
