Hamilton Cushion Form with scarce dial option "Click" to Login or Register 
posted
Thought I'd share my latest acquisition, a white gold fill Cushion Form model with dial No. 05 which is not seen very often.

How it looked when I received it. It looks much better with period correct hands and a new glass crystal.

Its called the "Fluckinger" dial - perhaps the experts can further explain ? The Hamilton number is 05, I mean zero five.

Fluckinger was the company that made the dial for Hamilton.

Oh dear - let's be clear, the designation of the above dial seems to be 05, (zero five), and not O5,(letter O, number 5), since the "0" appears to be in the same typeface as known zeros elsewhere.

After starting this thread because of my recent acquisition, it just occured to me that I've now got all three special dials in my collection. Smile
