Here is a nice Non-Running Hamilton 4992B, 22J Military Navigational Pocket Watch that came from an estate sale. This one is in clean shape with all of the parts in it! The balance looks good but it will need disassembled, cleaned and adjusted to determine what else is wrong with it. The glass is in good shape along with the hands and dial.
This will be a nice restoration job and a keep sake for the Military Collector.
