Man, some of these Hampden's will knock your eyes out and this is one of those that will, Roger....

Great find....and in a Dueber case to boot....

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.I am really proud of this one.In my opinion it is original.If you see something wrong please let me know.Where will I be able to find a seconds hand for this watch?I have looked at ofrei.com and they list nothing for Hampdens.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
