I was surfing the web for Hamilton catalogs and I found this site.

Vintage Watch Forums Hamilton Dealer Catalogs 1910-1976

It is posted by Nookster, very interesting and thought maybe some of you may be interested.

Great stuff! Very comprehensive.
Thanks,

Gary,

The Hamilton catalogs are a great reference source and that is the most complete collection I've seen.

Thank you,
RR

Very informative.Thanks Roger

What I find most interesting is the First 992 E is showing a production date of 1930 to 1931. But they are not listing it into the catalog in till 1932. The serial # that they are using is 2584907. Which is a wide pattern.

Here is a link to the site we are talking about.

Here is an interesting page from 1928. It shows 950 and 996 factory cased.

Check out the price for a 36 size.

This 1928 sheet shows that a model 5 case could also be available.
