Hi

Just picked this off Ebay and would like to know if this is a proper dial/hands combination. This is a 974 Special #2560996 17j. Would this have come in a Hamilton case also? If yes which case? Production number of the 974 Special?

Thanks

The diamond hands on your "Special" are legitimate for that dial (my opinion). Overall your "win" looks pretty good, nice double sunk dial. I have no information that Hamilton was factory casing the 974 moodels. I recently sold a 974 "Limited" for about $200.00 with an Illinois Case that has only seen that movement. I hope that helps ascertain the value of yours.
