Exclusive Watches Available Only at THE WATCH SHOP. in the Mall



During World War II, Hamilton supplied a large quantity of wristwatches to the U.S. military. For over half a century, the brand has been closely associated with the aviation industry, serving as the official timepiece for U.S. airmail services and gaining recognition from airlines such as United and Northwest. The expertise cultivated through its military and aviation watches is fully embodied in collections like the "Khaki Aviation" series.
While Hamilton's deep connection to aviation may not be widely familiar in Japan, it is cherished by many in Europe and North America. The brand also supports "aerobatics," a competitive sport involving aerial maneuvers. This event, timed for the special Christmas season, is a realization of that connection.
The six-meter mock-up, which debuted at Baselworld to considerable attention, has since been exhibited in major cities worldwide. At this fair, visitors can have their commemorative photos taken with the airplane against a backdrop of the magnificent scenery of Zermatt, Switzerland, and take them home.
Furthermore, at the Hamilton fair held at THE WATCH SHOP., all visitors who present their commemorative photos will receive a novelty gift. Two exclusive models will be offered: the "Khaki Pilot 42mm" and the "Khaki Officer Auto," each with an interchangeable strap. Additionally, a special Christmas gift awaits those who purchase a Hamilton watch.
This event offers a rare opportunity to experience the impressive presence of a Hamilton airplane up close. Why not take this chance to explore your favorite watch in anticipation of Christmas?
