Hamilton Ventura Elvis80 Skeleton Auto: A Bold Statement in Timekeeping at Lexor Miami
A Legendary Icon Reimagined
When Hamilton introduced the original Ventura in 1957, it changed watchmaking forever. It was the world’s first electric watch—a daring design innovation that broke free from traditional round cases. Its distinctive triangular case and futuristic styling caught the attention of none other than Elvis Presley, who wore it both on and off the screen.
Fast forward to today, and Hamilton continues to push the boundaries of design and technology with the Hamilton Ventura Elvis80 Skeleton Auto (Ref. H24535331). This modern masterpiece takes the bold geometry of the original Ventura, injects contemporary skeletonized craftsmanship, and powers it with Hamilton’s advanced Swiss automatic movement.
At Lexor Miami, you can experience this watch in person—with full-length mirrors to see how it complements your style, personalized attention from experienced watch specialists, and the peace of mind that comes from buying from an authorized Hamilton dealer.
Design That Defies Convention
From the moment you see the Ventura Elvis80 Skeleton Auto, you know it’s not a watch for the shy or understated.
A Triangular Case That Turns Heads
The case shape is instantly recognizable: a bold, asymmetric triangle that retains the Ventura’s DNA but with updated proportions for the modern wrist. Crafted in black PVD-coated stainless steel, the case exudes stealthy sophistication. At 42.5 mm, it makes a confident statement without feeling oversized.
Skeletonized Dial with Electric Energy
Where traditional dials conceal their mechanics, the Elvis80 Skeleton Auto invites you to see its inner world. The open-worked dial exposes the Hamilton Caliber H-10-S in action. Bridges, gears, and intricate finishing details create a sense of depth and motion, turning the watch into a miniature mechanical theater.
A vivid red zigzag motif runs across the dial—a visual nod to the original Ventura’s electric heritage. This dash of color adds energy and reinforces the watch’s bold character.
Contrasting Finishes for Maximum Impact
The combination of brushed and polished surfaces on the case, paired with luminous hands and indices, ensures legibility while maintaining the avant-garde aesthetic. The integrated black rubber strap adds a contemporary sport-luxury touch while enhancing comfort.
Movement: Swiss Precision Meets Extended Power
Underneath the design brilliance lies equally impressive engineering.
Caliber H-10-S
The Ventura Elvis80 Skeleton Auto is powered by Hamilton Swiss-made Caliber H-10-S, a self-winding mechanical movement with a remarkable 80-hour power reserve—a feature that means you can take it off Friday evening and still find it running Monday morning.

Hamilton Ventura is inseparable from the legacy of Elvis Presley. In 1961, Elvis wore a Ventura in the movie Blue Hawaii, cementing its pop-culture status. The Ventura Elvis80 series honors this connection, blending mid-century cool with 21st-century watchmaking.
The “80” in the name celebrates what would have been Elvis’s 80th birthday, marking this model not just as a timepiece, but as a tribute to enduring cultural influence.
