What makes the Lancaster 198 unique:  We are pleased to present to you this beautiful watch originally produced by the Hamilton Watch Company, our Lancaster 198. This piece has a way of grabbing your attention from across the room to draw you in and explore all of the fine details. The dial features distinct vertical lines throughout with various amounts of aging that give it a very antique feel. Contrasted by these bright and powerful gold-colored numerals that shimmer and catch the light, along with the stunning open-kite hands. This watch has been carefully placed in our machined titanium case, accented with a gold-plated crown and hardware. As we turn the watch over to reveal the movement through our unique exhibition back, we are in love with the shape and design of the different bridge plates. The curvature and shape of all the different design elements keep your eye moving throughout the piece, exploring all 23 jewels and gold-plated gears of this exquisite watch.

This watch was originally produced by the Hamilton Watch Company in 1927 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. In this same year, the first successful transatlantic telephone call was made from London to New York. This incredible event marked a significant milestone in human history and demonstrated how powerful communication can be. It meant that for the first time, people were able to connect with each other over vast distances and create bonds between countries that had never existed before.
