After Call of Duty, Death Stranding, and Far Cry collabs, Hamilton is heading back into the virtual world. The watchmaker has teamed up with Capcom for Resident Evil Requiem, creating two limited-edition watches that play an active role in the game – and will also be sold in the real world.
Resident Evil Requiem is the latest chapter in the long-running series, set roughly 30 years after the Raccoon City outbreak. Players follow two intertwined stories: FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, whose gameplay leans towards investigation and analysis, and series icon Leon S. Kennedy, back in the thick of brutal, high-stakes action.
Hamilton has designed watches for both characters, working closely with Capcom to make sure they fit the characters, the story, and how they survive.
First up, Leon wears a bespoke version of the Khaki Field Auto Chrono, and it looks every bit the part. It’s a rugged 42mm chronograph finished in black PVD, with design cues pulled straight from his combat experience.
The crown echoes the adjustment knob on a sniper scope, while the pushers are shaped to resemble bullet cartridges.
A wing symbol at 9 o’clock on the dial (mirrored on the caseback) acts as a quiet memorial to fallen comrades in a world where survival is never guaranteed.
Then we have Grace’s watch, which takes a very different approach. She wears a special-edition Pan Europ that denotes a little more intelligence/subtlety rather than raw toughness.
The black-and-gold colour scheme, Hamilton calls it ‘gold and noir’, runs through the dial, bezel and strap, with geometric detailing on the caseback. It’s still purposeful, but more refined, reflecting Grace’s more analytical role within the story.
Both watches appear in-game and will be released as real-world limited editions, with 2000 pieces of each available.
They launch alongside Resident Evil Requiem on February 27, 2026. Pricing is set at £1800 for the Khaki Field Auto Chrono and £1170 for the Pan Europ.
