Circa 1935-1938.
Often referred to as the Hamilton model with the "coin edge," this beautiful Hamilton Boone features 14K natural gold-filled case with a refinished applied gold numeral dial, correct moderne style gold-tone hands, and a signature reeded edge. With a slightly curved case, it was designed to fit snugly against the wrist. There are only light scratches on the case and some minor wear on the bezel corners. Despite these common blemishes typical of vintage watches, overall this piece shows well and runs strong thanks to a cleaned and oiled Hamilton grade 980 manual hand winding movement with 17 jewels that kept good time over a 24 hour period. The watch sets and winds smoothly and comes with brand new genuine lizard straps in dark brown. The inside back case reads: Hamilton W. Co., Lancaster PA., 14K goldfilled, 031977. This fine wristwatch measures approximately 22mm wide (excluding the crown) x 37mm from lug end to lug end.
