Company Background

The Hamilton Watch Company was established in 1892 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. After buying the Illinois Watch Company in 1929, it quickly grew in sales and prestige, becoming the pocket watch of choice for railroad inspectors and later the primary provider of timepieces for the U.S. Navy during World War II.
