Important Notes
The Hamilton American Classic Intra-Matic Mechanical Watch comes in original packaging with dimensions of 5.63 x 5.47 x 4.76 inches and weighs 1.43 pounds. A manufacturer’s warranty is available and can be requested directly through customer service. As a mechanical watch, it requires regular winding to maintain accurate timekeeping—approximately once per day. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields or extreme temperatures to preserve movement accuracy. While water-resistant to 100 meters, it’s recommended to rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine to maintain longevity. Regular servicing every 3–5 years by an authorized Hamilton technician is advised to ensure optimal performance.
