Created in tribute to the revered university that calls our hometown home, the James, McMaster Edition honours nearly 140 years of discovery, excellence, and quiet impact.
Founded in 1887, McMaster University has shaped generations through research, teaching, service, and an unmistakably Hamilton spirit: ambitious, hardworking, and grounded.
Like the James itself, McMaster carries its legacy without needing to shout.
Ruggedly elegant, quietly confident, and built for everyday life, this limited edition watch celebrates a university, a city, and a community that continue to earn their reputation day by day.
