A century in the making: Founded in 1924, Hampden Watch has become one of America’s enduring names in fine timekeeping—built not on trends, but on craftsmanship and integrity. This summer, the heritage brand marked its 100th anniversary atop its historic Chicago factory, bringing together collectors, artisans, and admirers from across the country.

At the heart of it were Joe Wein and his son Daniel, the second and third generations to lead the company, carrying forward a legacy where horology is as personal as it is precise.
