What specifications do both models share?
Hamilton specifies the following for both blue 38mm references:
- Automatic H-10 movement
- 38 mm stainless-steel case, 11.1 mm thick
- 80-hour power reserve
- Sapphire crystal
- 20 mm lug width
- 10 bar/100 m water resistance
These are manufacturer specifications, not independent test results. The 10 bar/100 m rating is not, by itself, a recommendation for a particular water activity; consider Hamilton’s guidance for the watch and its condition before exposing it to water. Hamilton’s H70405140 page and H70405740 page list the specifications.

What is distinctive about the blue dial?
Hamilton describes the dial as a blue-to-black gradient inspired by an interstellar comet. Its product copy says the blue center evokes ionized gases, fading to black at the edge, with a grained, stardust-inspired texture. The brand also notes slightly domed numerals and cathedral-shaped hands. These are Hamilton’s descriptions of the design, rather than independent technical characterizations. The bracelet model page and the leather model page show the respective watches.

How is the Murph connected to Interstellar?
Hamilton says the Khaki Field Murph was created for Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar as a faithful recreation of the watch worn by Murph, the character played by Jessica Chastain. In a January 1, 2019 press release, Hamilton called the watch “one of the main emotional links between the two main characters” and said fans gave it the affectionate name “The Murph.” The blue 38mm model is a later expression of that watch: Hamilton’s September 1, 2026 press release introduced it under the subhead “A NEW EXPRESSION OF THE MURPH.” Hamilton’s Murph page, 2019 film-background release and 2026 blue Murph release provide the brand’s account.
