Hamilton takes its storytelling legacy into new territory with “Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Deathwatch,” the first-ever adaptation of Ubisoft's acclaimed stealth-action video game franchise, "Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell."
Premiering globally October 14, 2025, on Netflix, the adult animation thriller ushers in a new chapter for the acclaimed video game franchise. Produced by Ubisoft in partnership with Derek Kolstad (“John Wick”), Sun Creature, and Fost, the series stars Liev Schreiber (“The French Dispatch”) and Kirby Howell-Baptiste (“Killing Eve”).
Hamilton watches are central to the narrative. The Ventura Quartz is worn during a gripping and tense sequence by Zinnia McKenna, a young operative who seeks out help from legendary agent, Sam Fisher. The Ventura Quartz is a watch that defies convention, much like the new generation stepping into the shadows. Fisher himself is defined by two Hamilton icons: the Khaki Field Expedition, a watch built for precision, durability and discretion, just like him; and the Khaki Navy Frogman, the perfect complement to the ultimate field agent – rugged, precise and unflinching under pressure. Meanwhile, the Khaki Aviation X-Wind Sandstorm is key to the plot of the series as it holds a hidden secret that could have massive repercussions on the geopolitical landscape.
For Hamilton, the presence of its timepieces in “Splinter Cell: Deathwatch” reflects more than their authenticity or enduring appeal. It continues Hamilton’s long-standing, active role in storytelling.
From creating custom pieces for films like “Interstellar” and “Tenet” to building immersive details in games such as “Call of Duty: Black Ops 7” and “Death Stranding 2,” Hamilton has become integral to how stories are told. Each watch brings realism and depth to the worlds it inhabits.
Now, expanding into adult animation—one of the world’s most influential and fast-growing genres—Hamilton underscores its commitment to partnering with creators across mediums to bring stories to life.
In every format, the goal remains the same: to fuse precision watchmaking with the craft of storytelling, making each watch a catalyst for pivotal moments on screen.
