”Khaki Field Auto Odyssey Limited Edition””Hamilton and Director Christopher Nolan Team Up for the Fourth Time! A Tribute Model to the Blockbuster Film *Odyssey*
Hamilton has partnered with director Christopher Nolan for the fourth time to create a timepiece inspired by the film ‘The Odyssey’. As a watchmaker for filmmakers, Hamilton has forged a unique relationship with cinema by integrating timepieces into narratives through three distinct approaches.These approaches include featuring existing models on screen, creating custom designs for specific films, and developing narrative-driven timepieces inspired by the films’ worlds. It is precisely because Hamilton has cultivated deep, long-standing ties with Hollywood that this exceptionally deep collaboration with world-renowned director Christopher Nolan has been realized.
The collaboration between Hamilton and director Christopher Nolan follows their work on *Interstellar* (2014), *TENET* (2020), and *Oppenheimer* (2023). This time, the partnership is evolving into a new form.*The Odyssey*, scheduled for release by Universal Pictures on Friday, September 11, 2026, is Christopher Nolan’s latest film and this year’s biggest entertainment blockbuster.Although this model does not appear on screen, it was designed in collaboration with Director Nolan as a tribute to the story itself. Through this collaboration, Hamilton is further developing its close partnership with the film industry.The *Odyssey* timepiece is a rare creation where mythology, cinema, and watchmaking intersect, crafted for collectors who value both craftsmanship and storytelling.
The Inspiration Behind the ‘Khaki Field Auto Odyssey Limited Edition’”Helmets and Swords as the Main Motifs!A Design Reflecting the Bronze Age
Set in an era before mechanical watches existed, *The Odyssey* presented a unique creative challenge for the watch’s development.Director Nolan and Hamilton drew inspiration for the timepiece from the symbols, materials, and myths featured in this epic tale. The result is an exceptionally rare and special model that transcends the narrative into design.The primary sources of inspiration are the helmet and sword of Odysseus, the film’s protagonist. These two motifs are reflected on both the dial and the case back. Bronze was chosen as the material to evoke the weapons and armor of the Bronze Age—the setting of the film—and to emphasize the connection to ancient craftsmanship.
Details of the ‘Khaki Field Auto Odyssey Limited Edition’The design is dotted with references to the film, such as sword-shaped hands, the director’s signature, and a case back engraved with a helmet
The satin-finished black dial features a bronze pattern inspired by the texture of a helmet. The index at the 12 o’clock position is designed to resemble a rivet securing a sword to its sheath.The bronze-colored sword-shaped hands evoke the design of Odysseus’s sword. Additionally, the 42mm bronze case is based on the “Khaki Field Auto” model and features a circular finish.A brown grained leather strap with distinctive central stitching completes the design. The titanium case back, which combines comfort and durability, features a depiction of Odysseus’s helmet alongside director Christopher Nolan’s signature.
Special packaging and production numbers for the 'Khaki Field Auto Odyssey Limited Edition'Includes a pin featuring the goddess Athena and a commemorative plaque; a limited-edition model of 2,112 pieces, derived from a key number in the film
This model comes with a replica of the Goddess Athena pin. In the story, this is the iconic item that Odysseus’s wife, Penelope, gave him, and which he wears as a talisman. The pin is designed to be worn as a brooch, embodying the magic of the film.The packaging features a black and bronze color scheme. It contains a round metallic shield symbol, a commemorative plaque, and the pin. Additionally, the limited production run of 2,112 pieces is derived from the number “12,” which holds significant meaning in Greek mythology.This number is significant because Homer’s epic poem “The Odyssey” consists of 12,000 lines,the fact that 12 ships were sent to Troy, and the fact that Odysseus undertook the trial of shooting through 12 axe blades to prove his identity—all of these examples demonstrate the symbolic use of “12” throughout the story.
