![]() The hour markers are applied to the silver-coloured peripheral precision minute track that extends out over the dial at 3 o’clock to incorporate the day and date windows. Powered by the same automatic base movement found in the 2016 iteration of the Face-2-Face II, the new round case shape means that the indications are now more centred. It is a bold watch, with a lot of presence, but this is what made the series appealing. The architecture is bold and contemporary, with short jutting lugs and teardrop-shaped chronograph pushers underscored with brushed and polished surfaces. ![]() Still large, it will undoubtedly be easier to wear than the 53mm oval models. Unlike the two former oval editions, the new Jazzmaster Face-to-Face III has a round 44mm rotating case with a thickness of 17.25mm and 50m water-resistance. Both are now discontinued, and here’s the third edition… The first-generation Face-2-Face with a chronograph on one dial and a dressier three-hand timekeeper on the other was powered by two separate movements, and retailed for CHF 5,900, while the 2016 Face-2-Face II Auto Chronograph with chronograph displays on one side and a pulsometer, tachymeter and telemeter on the other powered by a single movement retailed for CHF 3,895. While we can’t really compare these sophisticated, very high-end models with Haute Horlogerie finishings that are so expensive you have to request their prices, the Hamilton Jazzmaster Face-2-Face models are not afraid of complications and are competitively priced. But if you’re looking for something truly extraordinary, the two dials and pivoting case of the Face-2-Face is where the action is. The Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema, for example, which celebrates Hamilton’s ties to cinema, features rotating film reels on the dial. The Jazzmaster is another go-to collection for contemporary watches, often with a surprising twist. Still going strong, the Ventura isn’t the only quirky, niche watch in Hamilton’s line-up. That might have been enough to secure its place in the annals of watch history, but it also stood out with its odd shield-shaped design. Hamilton, the American watch brand that became a Swiss subsidiary of Swatch Group in 2003, revolutionised the watch scene by producing the world’s first electrical battery-operated watch in 1957, the Ventura. An out-of-the-ordinary watch, the double-faced Jazzmaster is a limited edition of 999 watches. In a departure from the large oval-shaped cases of the preceding models, the new Hamilton Jazzmaster Face-2-Face III comes in a more compact 44mm round case at an even more accessible price. Today, Hamilton introduces the third chapter in its fascinating Face-2-Face saga with a swivelling case and two dials with chronograph functions on one and measurement scales and an openworked movement on the other. The watch will be shipped to the winner by EMS, with full insurance and tracking.Introduced in 2013, the Jazzmaster Face-2-Face brings Hamilton’s innovative watchmaking expertise and flair for unconventional design to the fore. The watch is located in Minsk, Republic of Belarus. The two sides can accommodate different time zones, differentframes of mind or different outfits – the wearer is always in the pilot’s seat. Each individual watch incorporates two wearing options, both making diverse style statements. The common denominator of the two contrasting faces are the decorated, skeletonized rotors of each automatic movement, fully visible in the oval-shaped case. Aunique rotating case houses two dials, one presenting a sophisticated “boyracer” chronograph, the other a calm, elegant three-hand timekeeper.
