<br>Bedingt durch den hohen Bedarf während des Zweiten Weltkriegs forderte die U.S. Navy von den amerikanischen Herstellern eine massive Ausweitung der Kapazitäten. Quasi über Nacht schaffte es Hamilton, in Anlehnung an Kaliber von Ulysse Nardin, Chronometer in großen Stückzahlen herzustellen, die in Ausfertigung und Genauigkeit höchsten Ansprüchen genügten. Von 1942 bis Kriegsende erreichte die Produktion eine Anzahl von über 10000 Stück.

<br>Due to extremely high requirements during WW II the U.S. Navy demanded a greatly increased production output from American makers. Hamilton were able to produce large numbers of chronometers almost overnight, timepieces which were based on Ulysse Nardin calibres. The execution and precision of these chronometers was of supreme quality. More than 1.000 of them were produced between 1942 and the end of the war.
