This is a classic rail road grade pocket watch by the Hamilton watch company.

Movement – this is a model 2 ¾ plate nickel movement with a lever escapement and a micrometer regulator. The movement has gold jewel settings and gold train wheels. The movement is decorated with slanted striped bar damascening – the model 2 variant and is signed “Hamilton Watch Co, Lancaster, Pa, 21 Jewels, 992, Adjusted 5 positions, Double Roller” # 2574234. The movement is in 95% mint condition

Case – the movement comes in a 10K rolled gold plate open face case, which has a screw off back and bezel. The case has milled sides and engine turning on the back and diamond shaped cartouche. The rest of the case has a smooth plain finish and is in 95% mint condition – a really good case, however when screwed tightly up the back cartouche rests just off the winder; this can be adjusted by not tightening the back case right up – see images.

Dial – the white enamel dial is double sunk and has a superb pair of blue steel hands. The movement is signed “Hamilton” and is in 99% mint condition
