If you?re a movie lover of the generation that was able to catch the original Matrix film in theaters and get caught up in the hysteria that followed, and frankly wouldn?t begin to die down until the second and third installments began to cool expectations, this is an exciting time. We?re only days away from what has to be one of the most unlikely continuations of a film franchise in modern cinema history, when Matrix Resurrections hits theaters. Though admittedly skeptical at first (was anyone really asking for a new Matrix movie"), when the trailer dropped in September, our interest was definitely piqued. Now, with the new film imminent, Hamilton has announced a limited edition version of their popular PSR watch to coincide with the release.
Hamilton watches have a long history of being found in movies, so it?s really no surprise to see one turn up in what is expected to be one of the biggest films of the year. The choice of the PSR seems particularly apt for a Matrix tie-in, however, given the techy vibe of the watch and central conceit of the movie, that humans only exist within an elaborate simulated environment. The original Hamilton Pulsar (the inspiration for the PSR) was introduced in 1970, and is credited as being the world?s first digital watch. The unusual case shape of the original is straight out of the 70s with a great retro vibe, and has been ported to the new versions, which made their debut in March of last year.
