An excellent condition Art Deco Style gents pocket watch by the Hamilton Watch Co Lancaster PA. It will date by the serial number X13046 and the date on the rear cover to circa 1937.......

The excellent quality 17 jewel (Adj 3 Positions) movement is very clean and has a nice bright nickel finish. As it has recently had a new balance staff fitted it is running with a good balance swing in all positions and keeping excellent time for a watch of this age. Button winding and hand set both function smoothly. The nice slim rolled gold case measures 45mm diameter approx.

It is in good condition with unworn plating and has polished up well to make a very attractive and collectable watch. It has a nice Art Deco style dial with black Arabic numerals. Blued steel hands look original and it has a clear crystal glass which all add the overall quality of the pocket watch.
