Thought I'd show a pic of my Hamilton 944. Got this about 15 years ago at my chapter mart. The watch was in a poor chrome base metal case which was not able to be opened. I took a chance on it just from the looks of the dial. Glad I did.
I have switched it into a salesman's case.

Tom,

This is a very nice watch.

I really like the damaskeening that Hamilton did on these 18 size movements. A display case is perfect for showing this distinctive movement!

Very nice Tom, Hamiltons do look good in these cases.

Thanks for the kind comments guys. There are a number of relatively new collectors with us that only know collecting as it is today. Fifteen to twenty years ago or longer, it was not uncommon to find watches like this at local marts at reasonable prices. The whole methodology of collecting has changed since the internet.

Tom,
Very pretty Hamilton movement. Love the damaskeening!
