Beautiful 17 Jewel 16 size Hamilton model 975 Gold filled Hunter case pocket watch. Outstanding condition White porcelain dial with bold black numbers and Blue colored hands. The only flaw is a small repair near the 20 second mark, undistracting and otherwise just a beautiful dial. Front cover springs open perfect. All case covers open, close and snap shut perfectly together. Nice clean bow and crown. The crystal is super spotless. The movement is gleaming and super clean. The Hamilton 17 jewel movement serial number 347285 dates to 1905. The 16 size 3/4 plate 975 model lever set movement is adjusted to positions and has unbelievable demaskeening and Polished jeweled settings. The winding wheels are gleaming with only a few tiny spots. Pocket watch sets and runs outstanding with all pivots lightly oiled and the balance with beautiful motion and has been keeping outstanding time. Note all of my pocket watches have been personally serviced and restored to there best working order according to there age and condition. The 111 year old 975 Hunter model is a quality Hamilton movement and are becoming harder to come by then the open face 974 model. The beautiful condition Keystone 20 year J. Boss G/F case has beautiful detail with Beautiful machining design and intricate floral surrounding detail on both front and rear cover and a beautifully ornate shield on the front. The case has has just normal carrying use with some smooth areas along the sides but no apparent brassing to be found and has a real solid feel. The side of the watch also has a real sharp looking coined edge. The pocket watch is all set and ready to be carried and showed off with pride. Just an added note, I use a small screwdriver or needle to retrieve the lever when setting the watch. It’s too difficult with the fingernail.
