Hamilton American Classic Intra-Matic Chronograph H H38429710 Watch

The Watch

Blending American spirit with Swiss craftsmanship, Hamilton is a cornerstone of the watchmaking world. The brand is proud to introduce its latest model: the Intra-Matic Chronograph H H38429710, joining the iconic American Classic collection. Where vintage design meets sporting edge, this timepiece features a round stainless steel case with a 40 mm diameter. Its polished finish catches the light beautifully on the wrist. Crafted for men, it impresses with its premium materials. A domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating protects the dial from shocks and scratches - a material prized in watchmaking for its outstanding scratch resistance. A sleek steel bezel frames the case with understated elegance. To set the time and wind the watch, a fluted silver crown engraved with the brand's "H" logo sits at 3 o'clock. The watch also stands out for its refined chronograph** function, activated via the **two pushers at 2 and 4 o'clock. Finally, the polished caseback engraved with the brand name ensures water resistance up to 10 ATM. A stunning timepiece equally at home on everyday occasions and special events.

The Dial

The round dial features an elegant off-white color that lends it a vintage character. At its center, two sword-shaped hands sweep through the hours and minutes. Silver-toned, they let you read the time using baton-style indexes. You'll also find a slim seconds hand in black that adds extra precision, along with a minutes railway track. Around the edge of the dial sits a tachymeter scale. Graduated with Arabic numerals, it lets you measure the speed of a moving object. Hugely popular in the 1960s and '70s, the panda dial is referenced here through the dial color and the two black sub-dials. The first, at 3 o'clock, displays a 30-minute format; the second, at 9 o'clock, displays a 60-second format. Worth noting: the hands and indexes are coated with Superluminova, ensuring legibility around the clock, day or night. Finally, Hamilton signs the dial just below the 12 o'clock index and indicates the movement type at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Powered by caliber H-51, this mechanical manual-winding movement delivers a power reserve of 60 hours. Reliable and precise, it drives all 3 hands and 3 sub-dials, displaying hours, minutes, and seconds.

The Strap

An elegant leather strap accompanies this watch. Black in color, it carries the reference: H6003841151. Black stitching runs along both edges, giving the strap a timeless, refined look. Fitted with a silver pin buckle engraved with the maison's name, its lug width measures 20 mm.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 100 meters - or 10 ATM in watchmaking terms - this bold timepiece is just as at home at a gala as it is in the water. Feel free to wear it in the shower, the bath, or while swimming (even at a vigorous pace!). That said, our expert team wants to be clear: this model is not designed for scuba diving (freediving or with tanks) or high-pressure washers. Remember: shower, bath, and swimming only - and never operate the pushers or crown while in the water!
