Gary, Does the dial still glow in the dark? It doesn't appear there's any radium paint left but it might not be a bad idea to check the dial with a radiation detector. I'd say the dial could be found on a 950, 952, 992, 996, or possibly a 974. Below is a picture of the matching hands. RR Luminous Hands on a 952 | ||||

Thanks to Richard, I now know the dial is a model 582 SS Luminous and according to the 1920 Hamilton Material Catalog has the highest premium for any dial. There is no radium on this dial - perhaps it was not applied, or maybe worn off - - either way it was on a 992E and I asked both Richard and Gary to help me ID it. My sincere appreciation to both Richard and Gary for the diligent effort. Clark Reed | ||||

Very cool, likely original 1920s item. | |||
