My Guess is that it should of been double sunk.

Eugene,

The dial should be a DS w/ Hamilton in script, no block letters Hamilton (movement pre 1918), and the second hand is wrong...

Wanna sell it? Smile

I guess a Double sunk marked Hamilton Watch Co in Script on the dial would not work either.

Jon you like these 18sz Hamilton s.

I might sell it.

Eugene,

You're right, that SS dial belongs on a later, lesser grade Hamilton.

My choice for your watch would be the DS "track" dial with red 5-minute markers and Hamilton Watch Co. signature in script, like here on my 938.

I've also moved this discussion to the Hamilton Research Forum, which is where it belongs, and put a shortcut to it where it was originally posted. Smile
