Is the Movado Eliro a good everyday watch?

Yes, if you want a slim dress watch. The quartz movement needs no winding and the thin case fits under sleeves. It is less suited to rough use because of the mineral crystal and 30 m water resistance.

How big is it on the wrist?

The case is 23 mm wide and 6 mm thick, so it wears small, closer to a bracelet than a standard watch. It suits narrow wrists best; shoppers used to 30 mm or larger cases may find it too petite.

Can I swim or shower with it?

No. It is rated to 30 m, which covers splashes and hand washing only. Take it off for swimming, showering and diving.

Does it have a date or glowing hands?

No. The dial is plain, with silver-tone hands and no date window or lume. Reading it in the dark is not possible.

What comes in the box?

The watch, the original Movado box and the papers. The bracelet uses a hidden deployment clasp and may need sizing by a jeweler for the right fit.

How does it compare with other Movado women's watches?

It is one of the smallest and thinnest options, with a rectangular case instead of the round Museum dial. Choose it for the shape and size; choose a Museum model if you want the signature dot dial.
