This vintage Hamilton wristwatch is a timeless piece with a classic design. The 1930’s Drake model features a 28mm gold-filled case and a polished finish and was debuted in the 1933 catalog. The white dial has Arabic numerals and is easy to read, with a 12-hour dial and a calendar. The two-piece strap is made of black leather and has a buckle closure.
The watch has a manual wind mechanical movement with 17 jewels and a snap caseback. The tonneau/barrel watch shape is suitable for a wrist size of 7.26-7.5 inches. This vintage watch is not water-resistant and does not come with original papers or service records. The watch is in excellent working order and ready to be added to your collection.
The watch measures approximately 27mm wide by 41mm long (including the lugs) with a lug width of 17.5mm.
Please note the watch does work but its timekeeping accuracy has not been tested. It likely needs a service. There is a large crack in the crystal and some gold fill loss to the case but it’s still a stunning timepiece.
