Hamilton Watch Co. was in operation from 1892-1969 and manufactured some of the highest end, most accurate watches ever produced. Manufacturing of Hamilton watches took place at their facility in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

This Hamilton timepiece, expertly crafted in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1933, features the renowned 922 grade movement—an in-house Hamilton caliber with 23 jewels, produced exclusively from 1924 to 1936. The movement has been fully restored and refinished, with stylish blue accents on the screws and hardware achieved through precise, hand-applied thermal coloring. The watch hands have also been restored to their original heat-blued hue using the same technique. The Hamilton dial, in excellent condition, boasts a stunning guilloché striped finish that shimmers dynamically under different lighting. The applied golden numerals glisten and shine as they catch the light, creating a captivating visual experience.

The timepiece is housed in a 316L stainless steel wristwatch conversion case, designed with adjustable lugs to facilitate easy winding and setting while ensuring a tailored fit for various wrist sizes. The case includes front, back, and crown gaskets, providing water resistance up to 50 meters; however, it is recommended to remove the watch before engaging in water activities. The timepiece comes fully serviced and ready for your next adventures. In line with our commitment to preserving history, the original 14-karat gold-filled case will also be included as well.
