Paul KingComplete and original 992(L?).. Not sure
Hello All.
I have not posted in a long time and wanted to reach out about a 992 I purchased a while ago. Overall it seems to be a good example of a '24 plus or minus in what could be the original case. The case shows even wear with no brassing and a small tool mark at the 6 o'clock position. Inner case (see pics) shows as a Wadsworth 14k GF and a "Railroad Model". The single sunk enamel dial and hands all match, but seem like they should be on a 17J model. I have not yet had the chance to overhaul it yet. Thought? Thanks.

Richard RomeroPaul,
You're correct about the dial. Here is a link to dials that are correct:
992 and 992E Dials... The hands on your watch are correct for a No. 436 dial as seen here:
Hamilton 992 needs help w/hands or No. 581 shown here:

Paul KingThanks very much for the confirmation. Not sure when I will get to overhaul, so I will probably wait on sourcing a dial and hands. Did you have any thoughts on the case?
