1944 23 Jewel Hamilton 2B Grade 950B Serial #2B749Running & Keeping Time

  

THE VERY HARD TO FIND 16S 23 JEWEL HAMILTON "2B" GRADE 950B. ONLY 100 OF THESE 2B PREFIX 950B MOVEMENTS WERE MADE THROUGH 1943/44. IT IS ANYBODY'S GUESS HOW MANY OF THESE 2B 950B WATCHES ARE STILL LEFT.

SEVENTY FIVE YEARS HAS PASSED SINCE THE FINISH DATES OF THESE MOVEMENTS. I SPENT SOME TIME IN THE HAMILTON RECORDS AND FOUND THAT THE 100 2B 950B MOVEMENTS WERE FINISHED OVER TEN SEPARATE DAYS FROM AUGUST 23RD OF 1943 TO JANUARY 26TH 1944. AND OTHER NO INDICATION OF ITS DISPOSITION. THIS MOVEMENT 2B749 WAS ONE OF ONLY FOUR MOVEMENTS FINISHED IN 1944.

IT WILL SOON BE 75 YEARS OLD. MANUFACTURED SEVENTY FIVE YEARS AGO. IT IS RUNNING DECENT AND KEEPING TIME.

IT IS A RECENT FIND. IT'S HISTORY IS UNKNOWN. THE TIMER SHOWS IT'S INTERNAL FUNCTION IS VERY GOOD BUT IT IS WEAK AND SLUGGISH.

ASSUMED TO BE SITTING IDLE FOR SOME TIME. PLEASE LOOK IT OVER CLOSELY.
