Murph

The Hamilton Murph 38mm draws its appeal from a unique cinematic legacy—this is the downsized version of the watch worn by Murph in Christopher Nolan’s film Interstellar. Its introduction answered collector demand for a more versatile case size, with the 38mm offering a classic wrist presence compared to the original 42mm. The Murph’s design is faithful to the movie prop, featuring cathedral hands, a black dial, and a subtle nod to film fans with the Morse code “Eureka” printed on the seconds hand.

Reference-wise, the H70405730 is the standard 38mm Murph, powered by Hamilton’s automatic H-10 caliber, which delivers an impressive 80-hour power reserve—an upgrade over many ETA-based movements in this price range. Unlike the 42mm version, this model omits the “Eureka” text on the dial, keeping the look clean and understated. The stainless steel case offers 100m water resistance, making it suitable for daily wear while retaining its dressy character.

Pricing tends to be steady for the 38mm Murph, as it’s a recent release with limited variants—most differences in value come from condition, completeness (box and papers), and whether the original leather strap is included. The Murph 38mm is not plagued by aftermarket modification issues or rampant counterfeiting, so buyers can focus on finding a well-kept example that matches their wrist size preference. This model’s charm lies in its blend of Hollywood lore, modern Swiss movement tech, and everyday practicality.
