Temat postu: Hamilton Watches-A Century of Cutting Edge Fashion
Amongst collectors of American horology,balenciaga handbags, Hamilton stands out as the "finest American watch made." The company was formed from the Adams & Perry Watch Manufacturing Company (organized in 1874 by John C. Adams of Chicago, and several local citizens of Lancaster,rings, Pennsylvania). By 1877 the company had turned into the Lancaster Watch Company and the Hamilton Watch Company in 1892.
Hamilton has produced many different watches over the years and the company's products have even appeared in movies such as Men In Black. They also produced the world's first commercial digital watch. However amongst collectors Hamilton is probably best known as the US railroad watch company.
Railroad Watches
The need for accurate timekeeping has been historically connected with the expansion of the railroads-a fact that might seem ironic to an unfortunate traveller on Britain's privatised 21st century rail network. In many ways it was the railroads who were the impetus for standardised time.
Railroad workers needed to know the time accurately and reliably. This wasn't just in the interests of passenger service but also safety. Trains leaving at the wrong time could be involved in serious collisions. For this reason the railroads needed watches that were reliable when subjected to the motion and dirt of rail as well as easy to read.
One of Hamilton's first watch ranges was the 1893 vintage "Broadway Limited" which was marketed as "the watch of Railroad accuracy". The Hamilton railroad watch was also adopted by the American Expeditionary Forces.
Hamilton manufactured the iconic 992 series railroad pocket watch afterwards. Since these were mass manufactured,UGG Boots, you may find it relatively easy. Sometimes,louis vuitton handbag, a piece of railroad and horological history only cost you a few hundred dollars.
The Hamilton name brand is currently owned by The Swatch Group Ltd.
