Just bought this Hampden and hoping for the best, but who knows? Anyway, since it won't arrive for a few days does anyone care to guess what it is? No serial number available or picture of the movement. I'm guessing it's a 12s 21J John Hancock??!! (based on the double sunk dial and the hands) I will give you an update when I get it.

by looking at those hands is not size 12 but I'm not expert just jack of all trades | |||

If its a guessing game, based on the size of the seconds sub dial I would say its a 12s. Most likely a 17j dueber grand. Based on the dial alone I would also guess that the movement is one that the winding and ratchet wheels are not exposed. | ||||

Hmmmmmm OK I will go for a Dueber Grand and I have seen those hands in 12 size and to my recollection they were on a Dueber Grand. x Deacon | |||

Looks like the winner is Jim and Deacon. It's a 17j 12s Dueber Grand - pendant set OF. Not the John Hancock I was hoping for. But it runs! Dave Turner ![]() | |||

Thanks guys, The case is nothing to write home about. It's a Gibraltar with a lot of brassing, but shines up with a little polish. What attracted me to it was the hands and the double sunk dial. Dave Turner | |||
