A True Rock ’n’ Roll Icon: The Birth of the Ventura Range
Hamilton’s Ventura is undoubtedly one of the brand’s most iconic and desirable ranges. Famously worn by Elvis during his hey-day; the unique triangular shape and pioneering technology that made the Ventura the world’s first electric watch has survived decades of style changes, making it a truly classic and timeless wristwatch.
The rebellious counterculture of the 1950s and surge in Rock and Roll music is what is believed to have influenced Richard Arbib’s design of such a unique timepiece. With no practical constraints placed on Arbib during the design process, the Ventura is symptomatic of the era in which it was born – fusing many different styles and creating an instant sensation. Now, more than 60 years later, the emblematic triangular shape still manages to turn heads and has become a true 20th century icon.
The Ventura was originally retired 7 years after its emergence, but demand remained strong and Venturas soon became a collector’s item. Hamilton reinstated the Mid-Century Modern design into its offering in 1988 and it has remained in production ever since.
The Hamilton Ventura Quartz Watch breathes contemporary charm into the classic Mid-Century Modern style that was popular with the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. This quartz watch is powered by a battery-driven electronic oscillator synchronised by a quartz crystal, ensuring a precise pulse frequency and accurate time measuring.
Furthermore, with water resistance up to 50m, a stainless steel watch case and strap, and a sapphire glass watch face, this particular model is renowned for merging durability with its irresistible style. The black dial starkly contrasts the colour of the steel and the numeral batons, making it a perfect unisex watch for those who appreciate the history of the brand and Ventura range.
