The [Hamilton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hamilton-x-dune-part-two-ventura) PSR 74 timepiece has been shown off by the brand as a modern reimagining of its signature Pulsar Cushion watch model from the 70s that will provide collectors alike with a [decidedly retro option](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lacoupole-watch) to pick up.

The watch is characterized by its [space age profile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/europa-clipper-exploration-watch) that boasts a hybrid display with a reflective OLED and LCD that will create a rich contrast and profile. The watch features an integrated bracelet that boasts a bangle-style profile that helps the accessory to maintain a decidedly more tapered and streamline appearance.

The Hamilton PSR 74 timepiece is powered by an H-40e quartz movement and offers a water resistance of 10 ATM. Priced starting at $745, the watch comes in stainless steel and yellow gold PVD finish options.
