Fantastic 0-size Hamilton! I've been keeping an eye out for one. Today's watch was a wgf Drake. Production was 4121 and significantly less with this black enamel dial.

Dan, I third the motion that your O-Size Hamilton is fantastic...

Here is another I just got back from the watchmaker (replaced broken mainspring, general overhaul), my 1970 no-date Submariner 5513.

Dave, how does one advance the day/date/moonphase? Are there pushers or holes on the side?

Adam,
there are four, fairly small (approx. 1.0 mm in diameter) recessed pushers located
on the outside edge of the case which are used to individually set the
day,date,month and moon phase.

A WWI C.1918 Solid 14K Gold wristwatch.

The case was made by the A.W.C. Co.
The movement I believe is a 17J Longines.
As you'll see from both the porcelain dial and
the movement this watch was made for a jewelry store
called Blacks of Calgary,Canada.

The service engraving on the back shows this wonderful
watch was presented to the Editor of the Calgary Herald.

This one, is by far, one of most treasured of all my watches. Smile

Note: I've shown this watch previously, a few years ago, but I
thought it's worth showing again for the benefit of our
newer members.
