About the Brand
Hamilton: Producing its first pocket watches in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 1892, Hamilton is one of the most recognizable names in American watchmaking. Although production moved to Switzerland in 1969, the brand’s American-made catalog remains extensive and highly regarded. With strong ties to military history and pop culture, Hamilton continues to offer both well-made modern watches and a deep archive of desirable vintage pieces.
