Pre-Owned Hamilton Watches

Hamilton was founded in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1892 and became known for railroad-grade pocket watches and military watches for the US armed forces. In 1957 it launched the Ventura, one of the first electric wristwatches, with its distinctive triangular case. Our pre-owned Hamilton selection spans field watches, dress watches and vintage pieces. Every Hamilton watch we list is inspected at our New York office before it ships, graded individually against our published condition scale, and covered by the Lume Wrist Watches 2-year warranty. Orders leave our New York office within 1–3 business days with free Standard Insured shipping in the US, or Express Insured for $50.
