empressissi™ is pleased to offer this gorgeous, early and fine quality American made HAMILTON dress watch for men from the late 30s in design known as the DODSON in gold filled.
The watch houses one of the best American made calibers - the famous 987A manual wind movement with sub seconds, running on 17 jewels. It is cased in a 10K gold filled case with a near mint original mineral crystal and an original crown.
The dial is factory original, nicely and evenly aged silver 'butler' finish with applied solid gold numerals and an original set of hands.
This Hamilton watch measures 26mm side to side (excluding crown) and 37mm from top lug to bottom lug and is modest in size even for vintage standards.
Attached to this watch is a brand new, slim HIRSCH genuine leather band in dark burgundy-brown tone, 16mm wide, with anti-allergic buckle in matching tone.
