THANK YOU for considering our late-model, very sharp, strong running and dead accurate Hamilton Grade 950L lever set watch. Here’s the low-down. 2,505,923, circa 1934, scarce Grade 950L, 16 size, open face, 23 jewels, Model Three, adjusted to heat, cold, isochronism and 5 positions, double roller, Patent Motor barrel, Breguet hairspring, cupped gold jewel settings, full gold train, all-gold balance screws, bridge nickel plate, stem wind, lever set movement. This fine 950L is in excellent working order, with a dead flat and true balance wheel motion that has a fine, wide arc and strong, steady beat. The watch is a smooth wind, starts right uponmy 8th wind with no jiggling, and lever sets as designed. The watch holds time within 30 seconds per week face-up after careful hand regulating. As for appearance this collectible 950L movement is looking terrific, with nice, 100% tarnish-free, bright and clean winding wheels, shiny bright and clean, bridge nickel plates with all of the fine golden engraving paint still intact, spotless regulator needle and whip, super clean looking inside, and reeling and rocking holding railroad time!! Dial : Hamilton’s famous and versatile Blindman Monty 16 size double sunk enamel with the black Arabic numerals and the famed Montgomery Patented red five-minute markers and black minute-markers. This dial in excellent shape all the way around except for one almost invisible vertical hairline. That’s totally it for damage that I can see with a loupe!!! Hands : Near mint condition original finish (not doctored-up aftermarket) diamond design blue matching style with pretty much 100% of the original factory blue finish intact – super fine hands and absolutely correct for this model! Case : near perfect condition Keystone J. Boss 16 size, open face, 25-year engraved green gold fill, pendant set and slot right, screw-back-and-bezel model! Here’s an Art Deco engraved KJB in just about as well-preserved condition as it gets, with a small rectangular blank cartouche at the bottom in back for a monogram, topped by ascending Deco pinstriping and fancy scroll work around the edges, engraved bezel, engraved bow, and the very highest amount of gold used back then!! This classic and traditional Deco case is in fully serviceable condition. I have restored and detailed this case right down to the threads so you get the best looking and working case possible! The back and bezel thread up easily, screw on and off smoothly, and both seat tight. The correct and matching crown’s fluting is super deep and crisp for a tight, sure grip, and it turns freely. The bow is likewise its correct matching engraved original, shows zero brass or damage, and holds very tight to positions. The crystal is a very thick beveled glass model and super clean and clear. The case does show excruciatingly minimal wear, including nothing other than the most superficial and unavoidable exterior scratching, zero marrings, zero doodlings, zero brass anywhere detectable, and absolutely, positively no sign of any dents, dings, dimples or depressions!!! I’ve owned this fine 950 for many enjoyable years and it has always run accurately and never failed to please and delight!!

THANK YOU for considering our high grade late model Hamilton 950B 16 size 23 jewel 6 positions railroad-grade watch. Here are the details. S19393, circa 1953, 16 size, open face, 23 jewels, adjusted to temperature and 6 positions, Model 6, Grade 950B, raised and cupped gold jewel settings, full gold train, all gold balance screws, bridge nickel plate, stem wind, lever set railroad-grade movement. By 1953 America had its RR watch building thing down pat, and here’s one of its finest examples!! This fine and highly collectible antique watch is in superlative working order, with a dead flat and true balance wheel motion that has a fine, wide arc and a strong, steady beat. The movement is a smooth wind, starts right up with a single flick of the wrist, and lever sets as designed. The movement holds excellent time but has not been further regulated or adjusted. Appearance-wise this movement is looking terrific, with absolutely 100% spotless correct winding wheels, brilliantly bright and clean bridge nickel plates with all of the handsome Bronze engraving paint intact, spotless correct modern regulator needle and whip, super clean looking down inside, and ripping and running strong and true! Dial : Model 537 “Blindman Monty” style “Railway Special” double sunk enamel. This dial is in near mint condition. It is clean and mint all the way around except for one tiny little repaired edge chip at “26″ minutes. That’s totally it for damage that I can see with the loupe! Hands : Original finish (not doctored up aftermarket) RR-bold blue matching spade hour and pointer minute hands. These hands are in near mint condition, with 99.8% of their original finish still intact and totally correct for the 1950s 950B! Case :Signed original Hamilton Case Model #A apparently original to this movement. It’s a Keystone 10K smooth yellow gold fill, slot right, screw-back-and-bezel railroad case with the fancy beaded bezel and back! This case is in fully serviceable condition. I have restored and detailed this case right down to the threads so you get the best looking and working case possible! The back and bezel thread up easily, screw on and off smoothly, and both seat tight. The correct, matching original crown’s fluting is still deep and crisp for a tight, sure grip, and it turns freely but does not extract, so only a lever-set movement will work inside. The bow is correct and matching, shows zero brass or damage, and swings loose. The crystal is a near brand-new thick beveled mineral glass model and clear as a bell. The case does show exceedingly minimal wear, including light, superficial scratching on an otherwise mirror-image back, zero marrings or doodlings, zero brass anywhere detectable, and absolutely positively no sign of any dents, dings, dimples or depressions!! I’ve owned this fine timepiece for 20-odd years and it has always run accurately and never failed to please and delight!!
