It's the Hamilton Sputnik, comrades! Deet doot.
In this video, we blast off into space with the 1955 Hamilton Automatic K-454, otherwise known as The Sputnik. In the mid, when the Cold War was ramping up, and the Space Race was about to lift off, Hamilton introduced their first line of automatic watches using Swiss made movements. The design language of these watches was a distinct departure from the tank style watches of the 1940's and early 1950's. Like automobiles at the time, these new watches pushed the envelope and borrowed queues from the aerospace industry, very much reflecting pop culture of the time. How does the 1955 Hamilton Sputnik hold up today? Let's find out.
