Circa 1955-1957.
Here we have a vintage Hamilton Murray in a 10K yellow goldfilled case with 18K solid gold numerals and markers on a refinished sterling silver dial. The Murray has quite a distinctive case shape with lugs pointing outwards from both ends and a notch on each of the four sides subtly resembling a scarab. Powering this watch is a size 8/0 grade 747 manual hand wind movement with 17 jewels that runs strong and kept great time over a 24 hour period. The inside back case reads: Murray, Hamilton W. Co., Lancaster PA., 10K goldfilled, R447311, Star W.C. Co. This watch sets and winds smoothly measuring approximately 29mm (at the widest point) x 39mm on overall length.
