Hamilton 16 size Pocket Watch Grade 992B made 1940

  
Hamilton 16 size Pocket Watch Grade 992B made 1940. I have a fairly large collection and have kept them all service through the years. Spent a small fortune doing so. The movement is 21 jewels, manual wind, and lever set. The last time I had this watch cleaned and oiled was July 2017. It winds very smooth; Sets properly. I've used the same watchmaker for years. He uses Swiss Made Moebius oils. The double-sunk porcelain-enamel dial is in mint condition; no chips, cracks or hairlines. The blued, steel hands are in beautiful condition. The case is a Hamilton Model 11 and in very good condition. The covers work perfectly smooth.

The bow is "medium" tight, the crown is in nice shape, and there is a new mineral-glass crystal installed. No issues with the threads. The Hamilton Grade 992B was first introduced in 1940.

This is a very nice "1st year" 992B pocket watch and matches with the Hamilton Catalog from 1940. The serial number on this movement is C1588, which means it was made in 1940. The 1st year for the 992B. The item "Hamilton 16 size Pocket Watch Grade 992B made 1940" is in sale since Thursday, July 11, 2019.
