Hamilton

Hamilton Watch Company was founded in 1892 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA. The brand gained fame for its railroad watches, known as “The Watch of Railroad Accuracy.” Throughout the 20th century, Hamilton produced durable military watches for the U.S. armed forces and introduced the world’s first electric watch, the Ventura, in 1957. The brand also pioneered digital timekeeping with its innovations in 1969. In the 1970s, Hamilton moved its production to Switzerland and is now part of the Swatch Group. Combining American design heritage with Swiss precision, Hamilton continues to create iconic timepieces and is renowned for its strong presence in Hollywood films, earning the title “The Movie Brand.”
