Hamilton Khaki Field Murph Auto H70605731

The Hamilton Khaki Field Murph Auto H70605731 is a 42mm steel automatic field watch, the commercial recreation of the prop watch Hamilton designed for the film Interstellar (2014, dir. Christopher Nolan): in the plot, it's the watch astronaut Cooper gives his daughter Murph before leaving on his space mission, and it becomes a key element of the film's resolution. It runs the automatic Caliber H-10, with 80 hours of power reserve. Cazador has no verified price observations yet for this reference. Its stand-out detail: the central seconds hand carries an engraved Morse-code nod to the film's plot, the same detail the original prop watch had.

History

Hamilton was founded in 1892 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania (United States), as a maker of precision pocket watches for the American railroad, before joining the Swiss Swatch Group and moving production to Switzerland. The brand has since marketed an identity of 'Swiss precision, American spirit,' reinforced by a long track record of film collaborations, especially in science fiction.

For Interstellar (2014), Christopher Nolan commissioned Hamilton to design a field watch that would serve as a central narrative device: in the film, astronaut Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) gives his Hamilton Khaki Field to his daughter Murph (played as an adult by Jessica Chastain) before leaving on a space mission he may never return from. The original prop watch wasn't initially meant for commercial sale, but public demand led Hamilton to release it as a catalog product under the name 'Murph,' after the character.

The H70605731, at 42mm, reproduces the film watch's design with a central seconds hand engraved with a Morse-code message as a nod to the plot, on a highly legible field dial with Arabic numerals. It runs the automatic Caliber H-10, with 80 hours of power reserve thanks to a magnetic-resistant Nivachron hairspring, and offers 100 meters of water resistance with an open case back.

This is the second Khaki Field family reference Cazador adds alongside the one already in the catalog, adding one of the most search-cited film-and-watchmaking collaborations of recent years to the encyclopedia.
