Is the Movado Bold Verso Automatic worth $1,295?

It is worth it if you want a Swiss automatic with Movado's minimal design and a sapphire crystal. At $1,295 at Macy's as of November 4, 2026, you are paying close to full price, so compare against other Swiss automatics in that range before buying.

How long does it run without wearing it?

The power reserve is about 41 hours. If you leave it off for two days, expect to reset the time and date.

Yes. It is rated 10 ATM, which covers swimming and snorkeling but not diving.

Does it have a glass or solid case back?

It has an exhibition case back, so you can see the automatic movement and rotor through the rear crystal.

You get the watch on its steel bracelet, the deployment clasp, and Movado's standard packaging and warranty paperwork. Confirm the warranty terms with the seller.

Movado automatics tend to dip during department store watch events and holiday sales. With only two stores listing it new, watch for Macy's promotions rather than expecting a permanent markdown.

Our take on the Movado Men's Bold Verso Automatic Watch

The Movado Bold Verso Automatic is a 41mm stainless steel men's watch with a Swiss automatic movement, a sapphire crystal, and an exhibition case back that shows the rotor. It carries Movado's signature minimalist dial with Super-LumiNova accents and a date window, and it is rated to 10 ATM for swimming. The best new price is $1,295 at Macy's as of November 4, 2026, with only two stores listing it new, so comparison shopping is limited. That price sits at the top of what this model has sold for recently, so it is not a standout deal.
