Introducing the Hamilton Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema watch

The Torino Film Festival is one of the most relevant Italian film festivals and has reached its 36^th edition this year. In 2018 the TFF has added a new important sponsor that comes from the watchmaking sector, the Hamilton watch brand, which already boasts many collaborations with the movie industry, the last of which being the partnership with the series Jack Ryan, available on Amazon Prime Video.

The 2018 edition was held between November 23^rd and December 1^st and has seen the jury assign two awards: the first one is called Hamilton Behind The Camera Award and has been awarded to the young director who has distinguished himself for innovation and a second one, called Hamilton Behind The Camera Award – Talent for the Future, which was instead awarded the work of one of the directors who participated in the ScriptLab, the laboratory of emerging directors part of the TorinoFilmLab.

In both cases, Hamilton gave the winners a Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema, a watch that, as the name suggests, is a regulator watch: in the Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema, automatic and with a 42mm wide stainless steel case, the hour display is separated from the minutes thanks to an asymmetrical design that draws inspiration from the turning reels of vintage movie cameras.

The central minute hand is coupled to two counters, which form a figure eight and track hours and running seconds respectively. On the see-through case back, secured to the case via six tiny screws, a printed reel, which covers the 38–hour power reserve automatic movement H–12, is applied. The price of the Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema is € 1075.
