Hamilton 10k Gold Filled Vintage 1950's Recently Serviced Mens Watch....26mm

Product Detail

Founded in 1892,the Hamilton Watch Company of Lancaster, PA would not officially start its watch production until March 1894, having first chosen the name Columbian Watch Co. But this name was already copyrighted by the Waterbury Co. The name "Hamilton" was derived from Lancaster's founding father, Mr. Andrew Hamilton, a Scottish-born attorney who was instrumental in the growth of Lancaster.

By 1908 Hamilton was producing a ladies pendant watch and during the WWI period a small line of military style watches were available for men. Hamilton never looked back, arguably producing the highest quality American made watches from the 1920s through the 1960s

A careful shopper who takes the time to study the photos, reads the entire description, and asks pertinent questions is our best customer

Please note that all pictures are taken on the macro setting. This makes even the slightest imperfections, shadows during photography, and specks of dust appear much more prominent even though they are often not visible without magnification

As Always....."Buy The Seller".....is a Phrase That Applies To The Watch Industry Almost More Than Any Other

Our business values are Honesty, Quality, and Service, and when you are ready for the watch of your dreams place your order and confidence in Vintage Watch Outlet

You will be pleasantly surprised, and receive many compliments, when wearing your watch. There is nothing that draws attention quite like a stunning watch

Because older vintage wristwatches were made smaller than watches made today, men or women can wear this and would look fabulous on your wrist

Vintage watches are generating more interest over the last several years. They are added to collections and are being worn. These vintage watches are a bargain when you consider the cost of producing a comparable watch with a high grade movement. This is a very nice example of a vintage watch which would make a interesting example for any collection or just be fun to wear as your personal timepiece

Vintage watches may gain or lose a small amount of time per day as they do not keep quartz accuracy. Also, because most vintage watches being offered are between 30-90 years old, small imperfections, scratches, and wear are to be expected

All of our watches have been tested and serviced if needed. We time all watches for at least 48 hours prior to listing and 12 hours prior to shipment. If it doesn't maintain acceptable accuracy, or function properly, we won't ship it and the buyer will receive a refund

Water resistance is not guaranteed on vintage or pre-owned wristwatches. 

It is our hope that all of our items will go to people who will enjoy and appreciate them. We will gladly accept a return, or take care of a problem, if we make a gross error in the description. If we have made no gross errors, the item is a final sale. This is merely due to the items being antiques, vintage, or pre-owned
