Turkey week has been special. Below is the third scarce 16 size Hampden I picked up this week.

The watch is a Grade 104 SR
#2,142,271 ( about 1905)
23 jewels
Model 4
Open Face
Adjusted 5 Positions
Lever Set
Estimated number of blocked serial numbers 800
This is the last of 4 runs

While the watch is from about 1905 the case is probably from around 1920.

Even so,to pick up a watch this scarce ( N=800)for $431 is remarkable compared to the prices for 23 jewel watches from most other companies.

Good going Bob, another nice Hampden.

Recently acquired this tu-tone, OF grade 104 with SR in flag in a salesman case. Supposedly only 1200 made. Sorry for the picture quality but it is really difficult to photograph. I think the tu-tone 16s 104's have among the most beautiful of decorations.

I just picked up a 23j 105 sn1043207 "NR" hunter in a nice Deuber case and made an off for $300 and it was accepted. This is about 79 units before the one that Robert posted. I will post pictures when it arrives.

Just got this Gr.104 Mod.4 SR in flag Two Tone
S/N 1899786=1905 Adj.5 Pos. Montgomery dial.Sure runs good.

I really like these too Roger , I have 2 in the shop now ! It kinda makes it easier to collect these , prices are low , info is scarce so the wrong dial or case is no big thing !

Thanks Kevin.Do you think the dial and case is
wrong for this movement?

It has been said before, they made a very attractive watch. Particularly the 16s in this time zone.
Thanks for showing, one of the most iconic logos in my opinion.
