I few months back i was contacted by a Major in the Royal Army Medical Corps to custom paint his new purchase, a Hamilton Jazzmaster GMT. As with most initial discussions there was a lot of dialogue about how he wanted it to look and the 'feel' of the final watch. The Patek Philippe 5131G White gold world time was the source of inspiration and i was asked to paint the new Hamilton in a similar way to make the world 'pop' off the dial.
Let's be frank, as beautiful and elegant the stock Hamilton dial is, it really isn't going to turn many heads - and i like that about it. However, i was so eager to also transform the watch from the ordinary to extraordinary by painting the embossed continents and adding some cosmic stars to the 12hour black outer ring to simulate the night sky.
After several days of meticulously hand painting each continents and star, the final results truly speak for themselves and I think elevate this watch into a completely different league/category.
Let me know what you think and i hope you like how my artwork transformed this awesome watch.
Cheers
Chris
