Hamilton's signature piece, the Khaki Field, has its roots in the hand-wound military watches Hamilton supplied to the U.S. military in the 1940s.
Iconic design, uncompromising functional beauty, and excellent fit like a field watch are part of the history of Hamilton's supply of high-performance military watches for the military of the world, including the US and British forces. backed up.

During the war in the 1940s, Hamilton stopped making watches for general sale at the request of the US Army and supplied more than 1 million military watches.

For this achievement, we have received the E-Award five times from the U.S. Navy and Army, which is given only to excellent suppliers of munitions production between 1943 and 1945.
Of the 85,000 companies that contributed to wartime munitions production, only a limited number of suppliers, less than 5%, were awarded the E-Award, and very few suppliers were awarded more than once.


E is for excellence
Hamilton credit for supplying one million watches


"Khaki Field Mecha" is worn on the arm.

Wearing a timepiece that made a name for itself on the battlefields of the 1940s.

Hamilton supplied more than one million watches to American soldiers during the war, and its roots continue to inspire the Khakifield collection.


The story goes beyond the effort it took to develop a military watch.

This collection showcases the history of unprecedented innovation, the dynamism, dedication and ingenuity that led to dramatic productivity gains in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the birthplace of Hamilton. .
Hamilton's work received the highest rating.

Between 1943 and 1945, the company won five "E" awards from the Army and Navy, a mark of unparalleled excellence in military production.

To celebrate this, Lancaster's Hamilton factory, which has been in business since the company's founding, was hoisted with a white victory flag and all employees were awarded lapel badges.



Hosting the 'E' Awards, the U.S. military recognized Hamilton's innovative technology and manufacturing capabilities beyond watches.

Hamilton's wartime duties included supplying elapsed time clocks, nautical clocks, jewel bearings, balance springs, and even map measuring instruments.

Over 10,000 high-precision marine chronometers, designed and manufactured specifically for use on all U.S. Navy vessels, are groundbreaking technology and a vital role in the success of Allied maritime operations. What you have done has been evaluated.

At the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor, about 50 years had passed since Hamilton's founding, and Hamilton had established a high level of reliability worthy of undertaking munitions manufacturing.

Hamilton produced its first military pocket watch in 1914.

The first watches were supplied to the American military during World War I.

Between the two world wars, it became a front-runner in the field with numerous innovations that advanced watchmaking and microengineering.

During World War II, Hamilton ceased production of all consumer watches and focused on military production.

In pursuit of the limits of tolerance, we designed, engineered, and commercialized a complex mechanism, demonstrating Hamilton's technological prowess.

Projects that would normally take years to develop were completed in months or weeks, and we manufactured new equipment that had never been made in America before.

Not only that, it manufactured complex parts and mechanisms for other munitions manufacturers who could not meet the strict requirements of munitions.

"It's a battle for precision," Colonel David N. Hausmann, who awarded the 'E' award lapel pin, told Hamilton employees.
"A ten-thousandth of an inch can mean the difference between life and death for America's youth on the battlefield. The tools and machinery used in the military must be perfect. We have been able to reach the highest quality." It's all because of your contributions."

An American soldier who wore the watch that was the forerunner of today's "Khaki" collection would never have had any doubts about the quality of Hamilton's timepieces.

Superior quality also includes the Hamilton hairspring, which uses state-of-the-art alloys developed to ensure precision and reliability under the most demanding conditions.

The current models feature a standard duration that is twice as long as normal and are equipped with the highly anti-magnetic alloy Nivachron™ balance spring.

Precise and durable, it continues Hamilton's heritage of engineering excellence.

Inspired by its military roots, Hamilton watches are well suited to today's tough battles.

Hamilton is a reliable partner for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy nature and active lifestyles living in the city.

An enduring Hamilton heritage that would not exist without the dedication and innovation of Hamilton 75 years ago.
