Haofa 2372 Mini-Rotor Automatic Watch – Moon Phase & Calendar

Moon Phase, Calendar & Mechanical Elegance

The Haofa 2372 Mini-Rotor Automatic Watch is more than just a tool for telling time — it is a poetic statement on the beauty of horology. Combining technical innovation with artistic refinement, this piece captures the essence of classic mechanical watchmaking while introducing modern details that appeal to today’s enthusiasts.

A Dial Inspired by Moonlit Seas

At first glance, the dial sets the tone for the watch’s elegance. Designed with a hand-carved wave motif, it mimics the gentle ripples of the ocean as they reflect moonlight. This texture shifts subtly depending on how the light hits, making every viewing angle unique. At the 7 o’clock position, a moon phase complication adds both romance and utility, displaying the waxing and waning of the moon with remarkable clarity. Encircling it is a date indicator ring, offering a practical yet beautifully integrated calendar.

Supporting this central theme, a 12-hour subdial at 11 o’clock allows users to track an alternate time format — a subtle nod to travelers and business professionals who balance multiple time zones. At 5 o’clock, a small seconds subdial provides dynamic balance, ensuring the entire watch face is visually harmonious while adding technical depth.

Mechanical Engineering at Its Finest

Inside the polished and brushed stainless steel case beats the 5H00A Pearl-Turn Mini-Rotor Automatic Movement. Unlike standard full-sized rotors, the mini-rotor allows for a slimmer case profile while maintaining excellent winding efficiency. Beating at a high frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, this movement ensures a smooth sweep of the second hand and greater accuracy compared to lower-frequency calibers.

The movement has been finely decorated with sunburst and fish-scale engraving, visible through the sapphire exhibition case back. This attention to detail showcases Haofa’s commitment not only to function but also to visual artistry. A 40-hour power reserve ensures reliability throughout daily wear, whether in professional settings or during leisure.

Crafted for Longevity

Durability and elegance coexist seamlessly here. The 316L stainless steel case offers exceptional corrosion resistance and scratch durability. At 38mm in diameter and only 12mm thick, the proportions strike the perfect balance between contemporary and classic sizing. Protecting the dial is a synthetic sapphire crystal, nearly as hard as diamond, providing lasting resistance against scratches.

The strap enhances both style and comfort. It combines the look of traditional leather grain with the durability of rubber backing, ensuring it can withstand heat, sweat, and daily wear while maintaining a refined appearance. The folding stainless steel clasp secures the watch snugly and comfortably to the wrist.

Practical Everyday Wear

Rated at 50M water resistance, the Haofa 2372 is well-suited for daily use, including rain, splashes, and light water contact. Its luminous hands and markers, treated with high-definition lume, allow for legible timekeeping even in low-light environments. This makes it not only a refined dress watch but also a versatile everyday companion.

A Gentleman’s Companion

The Haofa 2372 is aimed at the modern gentleman who values both precision and poetry in his timepieces. Whether paired with a business suit, worn during evening gatherings, or enjoyed as part of a collection, the watch communicates refinement and individuality. It is equally fitting as a milestone gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or professional achievements.
