MODEL 2: ALGREN White Two Tone Steel
The Model 2 Algren is designed for rhythm — from early mornings to late nights, dressed up or dialed down.
Its minimalist dial, brushed steel case, and clean silhouette give it a confident, modern utility. A Milanese mesh strap and Italian leather band are both included, letting you easily swap your look in seconds.
With our widest range of case and dial options, the Algren is built for self-expression — and built to last. Its luminous hands and indices glow after dark, while a fully engravable caseback turns every watch into a personal artifact.

I can’t thank Hampden enough for the incredible watch and the fantastic engraving. They took care in crafting the watch exactly the way I asked; making custom the engraving and detailing it exquisitely. Highly recommend this watch and this family-owned company.

I gifted my brother a Hampden Watch with the engraving "A thought is just a thought," written in our father’s handwriting. This quote has had a profound impact on both of us, reminding him to separate his thoughts from his true self, finding freedom in that awareness. It’s a lesson that has helped shape his journey, and I’m proud to pass it on with such a meaningful gift.
Before that, my brother had gifted me a Hampden Watch with the quote "Live Life Lightly." This simple but powerful message has become my personal mantra, reminding me to embrace life with ease and simplicity, letting go of unnecessary weight.
What makes Hampden watches so special is that they aren’t just timepieces they are personal stories that my brother and I now get to hold with us forever. The process of customizing the watch was seamless, and the quality of craftsmanship is exceptional. Every detail feels purposeful, turning a beautiful watch into a lasting symbol of personal growth and transformative moments in our lives.
I’m thankful for the opportunity to share this experience with my brother and for the watches that capture these important milestones. Thank you, Hampden, for creating timepieces that hold so much more than just time.
