Murph A timeless automatic watch blending cinematic heritage with Hamilton’s enduring craftsmanship

From movie prop to watch icon

Originally created as a prop watch for Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, the Murph was worn on screen by Murphy "Murph" Cooper and became one of the most recognizable movie watches among enthusiasts and collectors. What began as a fictional timepiece quickly developed a cult following, with years of demand from fans and collectors ultimately leading Hamilton to bring it into the Khaki Field Collection. Adding to its appeal, early 42mm models featured a hidden Morse code message on the seconds hand, referencing one of the film's most iconic plot elements.

The evolution of the Murph

Following the success of the original 42mm Murph, watch enthusiasts and Interstellar fans spent years asking Hamilton for a smaller version. Listening to its community, Hamilton released the 38mm Murph, offering more traditional field watch proportions and enhanced everyday wearability. While remaining faithful to the original design that made the watch famous, including its black dial, cathedral hands and Arabic numerals, the Murph has continued to evolve. New additions such as stainless steel bracelet options and white dial variants offer greater choice while preserving its unmistakable identity.

Built to be worn every day

Beneath its cinematic heritage lies a versatile everyday watch inspired by classic field watch design. Combining vintage-inspired field watch aesthetics with modern Swiss engineering, the Murph features an automatic H-10 movement with an 80-hour power reserve, sapphire crystal and 100m water resistance. The result is a watch that transitions effortlessly from casual wear to professional settings, making it an ideal daily companion for enthusiasts seeking a balance of character, comfort and performance.
