Gary ColeVery nice watch - I love the stepped or stacked cases from Hamilton during the 20's and 30's - this has a very simple, elegant look.
I will have to keep this model in the back of my mind
Not to steal your thread - but I received my Putnam today - what a stunning watch!
Keep the pictures and stories coming

Jerry TreimanFor those unfamiliar with the case marks, "S&W" indicates the case was made by Schwab & Wuischpard who made many cases for Hamilton, up to 12-size. The current company of Wuischpard & Sons who advertise case repair are descendents of this firm.

René RondeauA very fine watch, and quite scarce as well. Interestingly, this was one of only three watches that Hamilton offered with an optional black dial during the 1930s -- the others being the Otis and Seckron.
