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

Hamilton

Item No. 8063

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 a pleasing 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 ensures the hour and minute hands never obstruct the view of the seconds, perfect for taking a patient's pulse and for technical uses.

It has all of its original parts down to the hands and the winding crown.

Its case is in pleasing condition with only fairly light wear. The only gold wear through is at the corners of the bezel. Its dial appears to have had a very high quality partial refinishing at some point - it still retains its original enamel painted details and presents as mint.

One of our Master Watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it and installed a new-old-stock mineral glass crystal.

For the finishing touch, we have equipped it with a brand new Teju lizard strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

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.
