Hamiltons are now built in Switzerland, where the world’s best timepieces are assembled by watchmaking masters. But they’re committed to their US heritage—this month, Hamilton will open a US store in the brand’s original hometown of Lancaster, PA.
I recently joined the brand for a trip to Northern Arizona’s Sonoran desert, where we field-tested the NATO strap edition. It held up to the abuse of UTVS, river floats, and adrenaline-tingling hot air balloon ride (man wasn’t meant to be 3,000 feet off the ground with nothing more than hot air and a wicker basket).
And it’s a handsome watch. We stayed at the oasis-like Andaz, a small Southwestern paradise carved out of Phenix’s concrete suburbs, a testament to what desert hotels should be. The Expedition performed admirable double duty, appropriate for both trail days and long dinners.
