Gary E. FosterHamilton 935
Here are a couple of pics of my Hamilton 935, had it for a while, just got around to getting pics. serial 195470, Keystone J. Boss, 20 year gold filled hunter case, one extra set of screw marks, some brass showing on front cover and opens a bit past 90*. Kind of a scarce model.I don't know if this dial is original, thoughts, opinions?

Edward L. Parsons, Jr.This watch is from 1902 production, so I'd expect the dial to be signed "Hamilton Watch Co." in script if it was original. The "Hamilton" script signature didn't appear until a few years later, around 1905. I'd also expect an adjusted watch like this to have a double-sunk dial.

Mike HodgeNice Gary. You're right, you just don't see these every day. I stumbled upon mine and felt fortunate. Love your watch and dials are easily changed if you decide to do so.
