From the brand: What makes the Lancaster 087 unique:
The Lancaster 087 features a stunning brilliant white dial with bold black numerals and crisp spade hands, creating an eye-catching contrast that feels both refined and highly legible. The subtle railroad-style minute track around the perimeter adds an element of precision, nodding to the era when Hamilton pocket watches were trusted for accuracy on the railways. This pristine dial, protected for nearly a century, now finds new life in a one-of-a-kind wristwatch.
Housed inside is a Hamilton 922 movement, originally crafted in 1928, boasting an impressive 23 jewels—a hallmark of high-grade precision watchmaking. During the early 20th century, 23-jewel movements were considered top-tier, designed to reduce friction and improve accuracy for professionals who demanded the best. That same year, Philo Farnsworth demonstrated the first fully functional television, an innovation that would forever change the way people received information. In a time of rapid technological advancement, Hamilton was equally committed to pushing the limits of American horology, and this movement is a testament to that era of precision engineering.
We housed this extraordinary movement in a sandblasted stainless steel case with a polished steel bezel, creating a striking contrast between rugged durability and refined elegance. The black leather strap with contrast stitching adds a sophisticated touch, tying together the vintage dial with a modern, handcrafted aesthetic. The Lancaster 087 is a piece of history, reimagined for those who appreciate craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless design.
