About US:
Hamilton has been an iconic name in precision watchmaking since its founding in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 1892.

Hamilton has been at the forefront of innovations in design, technology and craft by launching the world’s first electric timepiece in 1957 and LED digital watch in 1970. A member of the Swatch Group, the global leader in watch manufacturing and distribution, Hamilton combines its American spirit with true Swiss precision.
