What makes the Lancaster 142 unique: Today, were excited to showcase this one-of-a-kind piece originally produced by the Hamilton Watch Company — the Lancaster 142. The watch boasts a breathtaking cream-colored dial with dark blue arrow watch hands and rustic-style golden numerals. We paired the historic pocket watch with our powerful and scratch-resistant Machined Titanium case and a gold-plated crown matching the dials numerals. The unique Machined Titanium case features a rear display that reveals the pieces stunning gold-plated gears and other inner workings. The back of the watch has a 912-grade open-face movement with a nickel finish, black inlay color, and pendant setting. The watch also shows off 17 luxurious screw-set jewels throughout its ¾ plate. To top off the final product, we equipped the Lancaster 142 with our hand-crafted Rye leather watch strap, which goes perfectly with the dials color scheme. The Hamilton Watch Company manufactured the original pocket watch in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1935 — the same year that George Herman Babe Ruth hit his final home run in Major League Baseball. On May 25, 1935, the Boston Braves went head-to-head with the Pittsburgh Pirates at Forbes Field. Although the Pirates beat the Braves 11-7, Ruth played a phenomenal game with six runs, including three home runs. Ruth retired from the MLB only eight days later on June 2, 1935. His home run record of 714 remained untouched until Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hit his 715th home run on April 8, 1974.
