Movado Astronic HS 360 Triple Calendar Chronograph

Partially verified

The Movado Astronic HS 360 is a self-winding triple-calendar chronograph wristwatch. It is housed in a 38mm stainless steel case and powered by the high-beat Calibre 3019PHF, an automatic movement developed during the partnership between Movado and Zenith. This complication incorporates a triple calendar—displaying day, month, and date—alongside a moonphase indicator and a chronograph function. The silver dial features applied markers, an outer tachymeter scale, and chronograph registers. The watch is equipped with a steel link bracelet secured by a branded fold-over clasp. According to the source, the movement shares its architecture with the Zenith El Primero, with American-market variants often containing 17 jewels to adhere to specific import regulations of the era. The watch utilizes a mineral crystal and a steel caseback.

Object description

Case and Dial Design

The dial is silver with applied hour markers and includes an outer minute track. The watch is fitted with a mineral crystal and a steel caseback, maintaining a consistent aesthetic with the stainless steel case construction.

The dial layout incorporates a triple-calendar complication with a date window situated between the four and five o'clock positions, alongside the day and month indicators. The hands are designed to resemble retro instrumentation panels. The watch is presented on a chunky big-link steel bracelet, which is secured by a Movado-signed fold-over clasp and safety mechanism.
