Hamilton watches
Hamilton has an aviation heritage dating back to 1919. A major highlight of the era was the selection of Hamilton as timekeeper for the United Air Lines inauguration of the first coast-to-coast service – a 15-hour, 20-minute trip between New York and San Francisco.

Hamilton Watches
Hamilton watches have a rich history. During World War II, Hamilton timepieces were worn by soldiers of the U.S. Army. This influence is still clearly visible in many of today’s models. The watches combine the latest modern technologies with a nostalgic design. Hamilton watches are divided into seven different collections: Khaki Aviation, Khaki Field, Ventura, Jazzmaster, American Classic, Khaki Navy, and Broadway. Interested in one of these watches? Feel free to visit one of our boutiques to see the watches in person. We would be happy to tell you all about the different collections and the rich history of this remarkable brand.
Aviation converter
Perform crucial flight calculations using the bezel with slide rule. Hamilton has expanded its pilot watch collection with models that make calculating and converting exceptionally easy.
The watch is distinguished by its bidirectional rotating bezel, whose logarithmic graduations interact with the fixed scale around the dial. This creates a “slide rule” that allows mathematical calculations to be performed during flight. It can be used for important factors such as airspeed, distance, fuel consumption, climb or descent rate, and flight time. In fact, it operates on the same principles as the E6B “Whiz Wheel,” a paper flight computer still widely used in modern pilot training.
The slide rule bezel is also useful for unit conversions, such as kilometers to nautical miles, pounds to kilograms, feet to meters, or even currency conversions when flying abroad.
