- RGRussell G.Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoRight on time
I purchased this Hamden after a lengthy "non-watch" conversation with staff at Windup/SF. Their dismeanor and friendliness made me closer attention to a piece i might have overlooked because I assumed it was out of my budget. Not only was it within budget we worked together to recreate the civil war inscription on their historic pocket watch on the watch. They agreed it was a wonderful idea and took their time to be as accurate as possible. Happy to say the watch and inscription exceeded my expectations and it arrived just in time for me to wear it with honor during our Juneteenth celebration. Thank you Cpt Sweetster and all those who paved a way for me.

THE HAMPDEN DIFFERENCE
Precision That Makes Its Mark
While many brands rely on diamond drag engraving—a shallow, surface-level method—Hampden uses high-precision laser engraving for unmatched depth, clarity, and durability. This advanced technique allows for intricate detail and permanence, ensuring your caseback engraving is as refined as the watch itself.
This isn’t just personalization. It’s precision-crafted legacy.
Why Laser Engraving Matters
Why Laser Engraving Matters
Unlike traditional diamond drag engraving, which mechanically scratches the surface, Hampden's laser engraving technique utilizes a focused beam of light to etch designs with exceptional precision. This method offers several advantages:
- Unmatched Detail: Laser engraving produces clean, intricate designs that capture even the finest elements of your personalization.
- Consistent Quality: The non-contact nature of laser engraving ensures uniform results across multiple pieces, maintaining the integrity of each design.
- Durability: Laser-engraved markings are more resistant to wear over time, preserving the story your watch tells for generations.
Our laser engraving technique delivers clean, precise, and long-lasting markings, making it ideal for detailed caseback designs.
