1935 Hamilton Seckron Vintage Duo Dial 14K Gold Filled Mens Watch - Doctor's Watch

Hamilton

Item No. 5834

The Hamilton Watch Co., America's most iconic vintage watch firm, built treasured timepieces that are still cherished by many today. During their peak years, which lasted from the 30's into the 60's, the Pennsylvania establishment developed a reputation for innovation and quality, creating some of the finest American made wristwatches.

The first edition Seckron doctor's watch showcased in today's offering in an example of one of the company's very collectible wristwatches. Released c. 1935, this first edition watch is powered by the caliber 980A rather than the 980B mechanism found in most examples.

It features a large, peripheral seconds dial that insures the hour and minute hands never obstruct the view of the seconds, perfect for taking a patient's pulse and for technical uses.

It was purchased from the original owner's family and was used by both the grandfather and father who were medical doctors.

Accompanying it is a Hamilton box that was with it when we acquired it from it the family.

The parts of the watch watch are original down to the dial, case, and all hands. The dial presents very nicely and appears to have been previously restored. The case presents beautifully on the wrist and shows gold wear-through on the corners of the back as is often the case with these.

Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement, which is very clean.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
