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 was crafted in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and completed in 1926. It is powered by Hamilton’s 902 grade movement—a 19-jewel, in-house caliber produced for only a few short years between 1924 and 1928, with just 9,700 units made. The movement has been fully restored and carefully refinished with blue accents on the screws and hardware, applied by hand using thermal coloring—a traditional technique used by early 20th-century watchmakers to enhance both corrosion resistance and visual appeal. The jewel settings, gear train, balance, and balance weights were each individually hand-polished to bring back their original golden luster and sheen. The watch hands have not been refinished and retain their original heat-blued color, preserving their vintage character. The metal Hamilton dial features a striking sunburst pattern that radiates from the subdial at the six o’clock position. Golden applied indices offer a dynamic play of light, while the original heat-blued hands provide bold contrast against the dial, enhancing both legibility and aesthetic appeal.
The timepiece is encased in a surgical grade 316L stainless steel conversion case, designed with adjustable lugs for ease in winding and setting, ensuring a tailored fit across various wrist sizes. The case includes front, back, and crown gaskets, providing water resistance up to 50 meters, though it is recommended to remove the watch before participating in water activities. The watch comes fully serviced and ready for your next adventure. Because of our dedication to preserving history, the original 14 karat gold filled Hamilton-branded pocket watch case will be included as well.
