Circa 1959-1960.
Here we have a NOS (new old stock) vintage electric Hamilton Converta I in a stainless steel case featuring an 18K yellow gold cap.  The yellow brushed gold sterling silver dial has 14K gold numerals and markers (Rhodium plated) and luminous markers and dots.  This was a watch I acquired in Lancaster, PA from a Hamilton Watch Company ex-employee and has recently been restored by none other than Jarett Harkness, an expert when it comes to Hamilton electrics.  The watch came without a strap but I was able to find one that is a close match to the one in the advertisement with a Hamilton signed strap and buckle.  Of the Converta models, the first version is the only one that came with a 18K solid gold bezel as subsequent models were either done in 10K or 14K gold.  The watch measures approximately 35mm wide x 43mm in overall length.  The inside back case reads: Hamilton W. Co., Lancaster PA., Stainless Steel, R990947, Star W.C. Co.
