C1917 Hamilton Grade 978 16 Size 17Jewels. Approved for electric interurban railways and street railway service. They were the official watches of the Conestoga Traction Company, which served Hamilton’s home town of Lancaster and surrounding communities. These railway types required a double-roller, steel escape wheel, adjustment to temperature and 3 positions, standards that were met by the grade 978. Total production of 978 movements was approximately 24,500. Finely Accurate Timekeeping see Testing. The case is a Keystone silverode lightly decorated in very good condition, no brassing or abuse. Lids screw on & off correctly. Crystal is scratch free. The gold train movement is clean with No discoloration and no service tool marks. The engine turning decoration pattern is all intact. Black letter filling is all there with very minor imperfections. All setting and winding functions work positively and correctly. Dial has a hairline and a minor chip at 5 o’clock. The watch was observed running for 24 hours in the dial and stem up positions. The watch gained 5 seconds during the 24 hour hours. Further regulation of the watch I’m sure would improve it’s accuracy even more. I have no history of the watch and assume that it’s due for professional serving and adjustments.
