Today Hamiltons retain their spot as most favored timepieces among fashion artists and collectors.
What finer pocket watch to carry and flash about than this hefty 16 size, 21 ruby jewel "993" by Hamilton Watch Company? Housed in a handsome, engine-turned yellow gold-filled hunter case, this watch features a remarkable well-designed, fully marked "993" grade Hamilton movement. Such a watch would have been railroad grade but in a hunter case very rare, very desirable, and only carried by those of means.
The overwhelming majority of railroad watches are in open-faced cases; however, the factory did produce a few in hunter cases for those who craved the ceremony of pulling out a fine timepiece, pushing the crown and watching the lid pop open. It's the movement we see conductors make in all the famous railroad scenes. No matter where you are the Far East, Europe or the U. If you must have a desirable railroad timepiece to create envy in your friends, you've found a remarkable watch in this 993. Please take a moment to look at the gold damasceening of the solid nickel movement.
