This is a Ball Hamilton 18 size, open face, stem wind, lever set, 17 jewels, adjusted, marked OFFICIAL RR STANDARD. Run watch- see Shugart & Gilbert book-2 star rarity watch.
The movement is in very good condition and runs. It has not been cleaned or serviced, so I cannot guarantee it to be perfectly reliable. The porcelain dial is original, and in very good condition with some surface scratches.Looks like it may have a coupe of very light faint hairlines that are difficult to see as well. The case is a 10 year gold filled case by Keystone. It has a horse on back.
The case is not original to the movement. It is in good overall condition with clear designs, and some edge brassing.
