Hamilton: Producing their first pocket watches in Lancaster, PA as early as 1892, Hamilton watches are one of the most recognizable American watch brands. While they moved production of their watches to Switzerland in 1969, the American catalog of Hamilton watches is impressive. Recognizable models such as the Ventura, worn by Elvis Presley, and their WW2 military issue “Khaki” watches, Hamilton still enjoys a large presence in the market today. Offering both well made modern pieces and a backlog of wonderful vintage items - Hamilton offers much for the vintage and modern collector.
