The Lancaster 091 is the 91st one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic's "Lancaster" line of the American Artisan Series. This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements.

What makes the Lancaster 091 Unique: Today we have the pleasure of presenting yet another fantastic timepiece from the Hamilton Watch Company. We love the intricate design on this double sunk dial, accented by these amazing antique spade hands. We contrasted this crisp white dial with our black DLC titanium case, bringing out the bold numerals and minute indicators. We went with an olive band to continue some of the dark design elements and topped it off with a nickel-plated crown and hardware. The movement is decorated with a signature design of subtle Geneva lines all across the ¾ bridge plate, as well as some spiral patterned accents. Gold-plated gears and a brass balance bring excitement from beneath, powered by 17 ruby jewels, screw-set with stainless steel hardware. This watch was originally produced in Lancaster, Pennsylvania by the Hamilton Watch Company in 1923. In this same year, the New York Yankees won their very first World Series Title, defeating the New York Giants four games to two.
