I am beginning to think lady luck is on my side, now if I just hit the big mega lotto. I was searching for a 21j parts movement for my 23j 104 project and ran into a very nicely priced hunter that I made a counter offer of 160 and they accepted. From the photos it looks like a nice case, nice looking movement and such and falls into the group below, HN4L 5-positons with an estimated production of 320. Even old porch dogs sometimes find the squirrels in the trees!!!! 105 RRG HN4L-5 POS 320 HN4L-ADJ ???? ON4L-5 POS 10,000 plus ONL4L-ADJ ???? ON5L-5 POS 11,000 | |||

Good move Claude, As you know, the 105 Hunter was a full-blown Railroad Timekeeper at the time of production. By the way, too many collectors forget that going into the 1890s Hampden was the watch of choice among railroad men. In 1892 the first Hamilton 936/937 models were introduced and "The Watch of Railroad Accuracy" would soon eclipse all the others. But, you know because you have been inside them, higher grade Hampdens were as fine as any of the others. Columbus followed by South-Bend, later Howards, Hampden, US Watch Company and of course Rockford each built great watches that are all too often overlooked... but that makes them more affordable for those in-the-know! When you can, share a few images  in this same topic!Congratulations on finding an uncommon gem. Lindell  | |||

Wow my typing is bad on this iPad Runs great and has a new main spring | |||

SN 2,990,731 nothing in that range in the Hampden book, so there must be a missing run of 105's that appear to follow a run of 17j McKinleys that were also hunters. | ||||
