I'd love to own every Hamilton Electric ever produced and, maybe some day, I will! But that day has not yet arrived and the list only shows those models that I own. If you have some other model that is not listed and you want some help, advice or just want to show me, please do get in touch using the email link on the home page...I'm always interested in seeing other Hamilton Electric models!

The Titan was the Poor Man's Van Horn! It was identical to the Van Horn apart from the cheaper
10K GF case. It first appeared in 1957 and can be found with either the 500 or 500A
movement. It has either a white or black dial.

The following Titan is somewhat special. It is thought to be a Hamilton wear test watch and has 1) a display back,
2) a rare 502 movement, 3) a case back with the word "ELECTRIC" stamped in it and
4) applied hour markers on the dial:
