Hamilton 992 in Salesman display case "Click" to Login or Register 
posted November 08, 2011 08:38
Hello, I have a very interesting Hamilton 992 serial number 1108187 that is in a swing out case case has the large crown, with the round style bow and looks like the Hamilton style salesman display case with the snap on covers. The movements nickle plates have a gold tone, and the winding wheel, winding crown, click, micrometric regulator, and all the movements screws have a heat treated or blued appearance. Is it possible this was all factory done? I've never seen anything like it! I'd appreciate any info on this Hamilton. Thanks Ed

There is the possibility that it might be the gold flashed 992 mentioned in the price guide, or if you search "gold flashed 992" on this site I saw a couple photos of them.

As Jerry said photos would really help.

Hi, well I tried to load pictures, but the upload exceeds the maximum allowed size. I don't know how to correct this to upload the pictures. Thanks Ed

Hi Ed

You might check out some of these topics that offer suggestions on how to re-size your photos so they will fit.

These topics are covered on the main page under the topic "How to Photograph your Watches & Clocks", here is a link to them;
