Circa 1953-1955.
A timepiece seldom seen available is this vintage Hamilton Benton made of a 10K solid yellow gold case with 18K gold markers and squares on a refinished sterling silver dial.  The case design is a strikingly bold display of Hamilton's journey through creativity during the "Golden Years" when models began taking on new shapes expanding from traditional round and plain square cases.  The sterling silver dial looks excellent with gold-tone index style hands that are true to form.  The case looks great with a beautiful mirror finish but has two minor nicks, one on the back case and one underneath the top right lug.  Resting beneath the dial is a grade 754 movement with 19 jewels that has been serviced and kept good time over a 24 hour period.  The watch sets and winds smoothly and includes new Champion black straps and an acrylic crystal.  The inside case back is marked: BENTON, Hamilton Watch Co., Lancaster PA., 10K Gold, L&K, L1641.  Case measurements are approx. 24mm in width (excluding the crown) x 38mm in length including the lugs.
