    Description

    1924 Hamilton Electric Railway Special. Hamilton Watch Co. 16 size, 17 jewel, open face, lever set, 974 grade, pocket watch with a "Hamilton Electric Railway Special" marked dial. It would have been intended for electric railway (trolley/ street car) time service but isn't railroad certified. It has been recently serviced (in April) winds smoothly and sets easily with an observed accuracy of approximately 2 min. fast/per week over about a 3 month period however I cannot guarantee continued accuracy due to shipping/handling. There is a small touch up on the second hand register where the second hand shaft enters otherwise the dial is in excellent condition. The hands are perfect as well. The movement SN: 1680662 puts the date of manufacture at 1924 The movement is clean. It is housed in a Keystone base metal case with a dust cover. There are no dents in the rear cover. Both front and rear covers thread off/on easily and the bow is tight. Overall, it is a nice example of what seems to be a fairly uncommon series from Hamilton. See photos for a good representation of its condition.
