Signed - Dial, Movement, Crown, Bracelet and Caseback Movement – Zenith El Primero 3019 PHC, Automatic windingīracelet/Strap - Zenith stainless steel bracelet (integrated)Ĭlasp/Buckle - Zenith stainless steel jewellery clasp Complete with its original cylindrical box, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a timepiece that is part of Movado’s history. The reference was offered in two movement and three dial variations with ‘Movado’, ‘Zenith’ or ‘Movado-Zenith’ sign.Įxceptionally rare and fresh-to-the-market, this chronograph was hardly worn and remains in superb overall condition, with a sharp bezel and defined lugs.
In fact, it is one of the rarest production chronograph model that the firm produced in the 1970s. The Movado reference 01.0180.434 was produced in small numbers with around 500 examples estimated. This was the movement that set the company apart featuring stunning design, 36000 A/h (operating at 10Hz) and a self-winding mechanism on a chronograph. Offering a central display of the hours and minutes, small seconds at 9 o’clock, chronograph with central chronograph hand, 12-hour counter 6 six o’clock, and 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a tachymeter scale and date indication between 4 and 5 o’clock, the Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition comes with a blue alligator leather strap featuring a protective rubber lining and stainless steel pin buckle.In 1968 Movado joined forces with Zenith and on 10 January 1969 Movado-Zenith were first to announce an automatic chronograph movement, the ‘El Primero’.
Beating within it at a rate of 36,000 VpH (5 Hz) and with a 50-hour power reserve, is the same movement it would have had had it been made in 1969: the venerable El Primero high-frequency 400 automatic chronograph with column wheel. What makes this edition significant and even more unique is that it represents the final version of the A386 available with the original “Revival” case. The stainless steel case with pump-style pushers is an exact reproduction of the 1969 A386, using the blueprints of the original to preserve the proportions of the iconic chronograph. Inspired by never-released vintage prototypes found in the attic of the Manufacture, the Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition features a white-lacquered dial with three counters in three shades of blue, reflecting a previously unknown prototype face from the company archives.
