⌚ Hamilton Ventura: value and history

The Hamilton Ventura is the brand's best-known design watch, introduced in 1957 as part of the Hamilton Electric 500 line, which Wikipedia describes as the first electric watch. Its asymmetrical case was designed by Richard Arbib, and the shape still sets it apart from almost every other watch on the market. The Ventura gained lasting fame when Elvis Presley wore it and featured it in the film Blue Hawaii, which is the subject of the video in this group. Hamilton was founded in 1892 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and is part of The Swatch Group. The videos below come from the official Hamilton channel.
