Thought I'd share my latest Hamilton. A 17 Jewel, 18s, 948, adjusted to 3 positions and pretty hard to find.

I added the case, and crystal.

The dial isn't perfect, but then, my wife indicates I'm not either.

If our recent electronic conversation is correct they only made 1500 of these and at a 10% survival rare this would be one of 150!

The case replace helped. This particular case was in my stash and the mounting screw marks line-up just right. Anyhow, a difficult watch to find, that runs well, looks good and is welcome in my collection.

Mike it is very nice. I do not recall ever seeing that model Hamilton before. Thanks for the pictures.
