For nearly a century, Hamilton watches have been associated with the glamour of Hollywood. In 1932, the inimitable Marlene Deitrich was the first to wear a Hamilton watch on-screen in the film Shanghai Express. Elvis Presley wore the iconic Hamilton Ventura model in his 1961 hit Blue Hawaii. Over the years, film industry production designers have chosen Hamilton watches for over 500 major motion picture productions.

Elegant diamond dress watches have experienced a Renaissance in recent times with a number of Hollywood celebrities opting for a chic diamond watch for their Red Carpet appearance. Historically, these beautiful creations have graced some notable wrists - Queen Elizabeth II chose one for her coronation and Princess Diana was often photographed with a beautiful diamond timepiece. These impactful jewels were designed as beautiful bracelets so that the wearer could discretely check the time. They required tiny, precise mechanisms and were technically revolutionary for their time. As with all of the best classics, the diamond dress watch is on trend today with many of the top jewelers offering the model- Graff with Tilda's Bow, Harry Winston- Mini Twist, Chaumet- Torsade de Chaumet, Van Cleef & Arpels- Perlee, to name just a few.
