Hampden Watch came alive again in Chicago with our relaunch event, celebrating the brand’s 103-year history and a new chapter led by the father-and-son team. Over 300 guests, including collectors, friends, and longtime staff, joined us at our West Loop headquarters to experience the heart of Hampden.
The exhibition highlighted six generations of watchmaking, showcasing our historic collections, archives, and vintage catalogs. Guests enjoyed Chicago classics, cocktails, music, and hourly giveaways from our Centennial collection.
For the first time, our showroom opened to the public, where our head watchmaker demonstrated live assembly, giving a glimpse into the craftsmanship and care behind each timepiece.
The night reflected our past, celebrated our present, and looked forward to a future of creating personalized heirloom watches rooted in Chicago and designed to be meaningful keepsakes for generations.
