Circa 1948-1954.
This later 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 new glass crystal, sterling silver dial, and new genuine lizard 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 manual hand winding movement with 17 jewels that runs strong and kept good time over a 24 hour period. The inside case reads: Hamilton W. Co., 14K, Lancaster PA, S644047, S&S. This wristwatch sets and winds smoothly and is ready to serve as your timekeeper for years to come.
