Vintage 1948 Hamilton 992B Railway Special Railroad Pocket Watch – 21 Jewel – 16 Size – 10K Gold Filled Hamilton Case – Running – With Vintage Hamilton Boxes
Excellent vintage Hamilton Railway Special railroad pocket watch featuring the highly collectible Grade 992B 21-jewel movement.
The movement is clearly marked Hamilton Watch Co. U.S.A., 992B, 21 Jewels, Adjusted Temp. and 6 Positions and carries serial number C239337, dating the movement to approximately 1948.
This is Hamilton's well-known 16-size railroad-grade 992B movement with lever setting and a beautifully finished nickel movement.
The white Hamilton Railway Special dial features large bold black Arabic railroad numerals, outer minute markers, subsidiary seconds at 6 o'clock, and black hands. The watch is housed in a handsome Hamilton-signed 10K gold-filled open-face case with decorative engraved bezel and bow.
The inside case back is marked:
Hamilton Watch Co.
10K Gold Filled
Lancaster, PA
The watch is currently running when wound. No representation is made regarding long-term accuracy or service history unless otherwise documented; vintage mechanical watches may require cleaning, adjustment, or service for regular use.
Included:
Important box note: The identification label on the blue Hamilton box appears to reference a different Hamilton watch/case number, so the box is included as a period Hamilton accessory and is not represented as the original matching numbered box for this specific watch.
Condition: Attractive vintage condition overall. The dial presents very well with strong, highly legible numerals. The 10K gold-filled case retains attractive detail and shows normal surface scratches and handling wear consistent with age and use. Movement appears visually clean. The vintage boxes show expected age, edge wear, discoloration, and interior wear. Please review all photographs closely, as they are an important part of the condition description.
A very attractive example of one of Hamilton's classic American railroad watches, especially appealing with the accompanying period Hamilton presentation pieces.
