Description: FULLY FUNCTIONAL (+/- 10s/day) Hamilton Cld. Miltary watch, likely circa 1947 with ORIGINAL STRAP. I bought this watch off a local watchkeeper who is selling off his dad's (another watchkeeper) collection. This has been in a drawer for the last 50 years and was recently serviced. The watch includes its ORIGINAL LEATHER STRAP, but there is a tear in the leather making it inadvisable to wear. It might be repairable. I've included with the watch a brand new NATO and a brand new deployant clasp dress leather strap, that both fit great. The condition of this watch is the best you're going to find. The dial is NEAR FLAWLESS considering the age and the case only has minor scratches from wear over the last 80 years. It has 16mm lugs and the case size is 28mm, which was normal back in the day. I've include a picture of the watch on my 6.75inch wrist for reference on how it wears. I have not officially timegraphed the watch, but it keeps very good time based on when I wear it, roughly 10s/day. It's a manual wind watch with a non-hacking movement. Based on my research, it's a 10k gold plated case. YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER CONDITION VERSION OF THIS WATCH. I've priced this watch based upon the EXCELLENT condition, though I am open to offers as the market has few comps at this quality. I paid the watchmaker very nicely for this watch, so I'm not making more than just covering fees here, but I want this to go to a good home who will wear it :) Make an offer - FAST SHIPPING!
