Circa 1948-1954.
This 2nd version of the Hamilton Piping Rock in 14K solid natural gold also features an exquisitely detailed black enamel bezel, gold roman numeral insets, and swiveling lugs. Although remarkably similar to the first release, a few key differences include a dial with a minimalistic minute track and subsidiary seconds chapter display, blued steel alpha style hands, and a recessed movement housing where access is gained through the front of the watch as the back case and bezel are one piece. This is a beautiful watch showcasing a clear crystal, sterling silver dial, and brand new lizard grain straps in brown. The watch measures 28mm wide (excluding the crown) x 43mm in length from lug to lug. Beneath the dial is an adjusted Hamilton grade 747 movement with 17 jewels that has been cleaned, oiled, and timed for 24 hours. The inside case reads: Hamilton W. Co., Lancaster PA, S544579, S&W. This beauty sets and winds smoothly and is ready to serve as your next timekeeper for years to come.
