Burt,

as far as i know the total of movements that Hamilton made of grade 960 was around 4900 and i guess was equally divided between Pendant and Lever Set.

Yessir Burt,

According to the Ehrhardt Hamilton book on pages 8 and 51 there were 1,918 Pendant-Set produced from 1900-1911 and 3,045 of the Lever-Set Hamilton 960 Grades from 1904 through 1915 production.

Tell us about yours!

Thank you for the information. The example that I have is serial # 751,103 circa 1909. The watch is in extra fine condition and appears to be all original and correct. (Sorry no pictures.) The movement is marked Hamilton Watch Company, Lancaster, PA. adjusted. It is nice to belong to this organization where you can get a prompt and correct answer to a question. Thank you again !

Burt,

Is the movement marked 960? I have serial # 751748 and it is marked 960, adjusted 5 positions. I belive the two are from the same run.
