Our West Coast Salesman Ken Cooper is famous for his contributions derived from his vast knowledge of timepieces and their makers so here is what he has to add to this listing;
Many Hamilton watches, such as this, have historical significance. At one period of time Hamilton was considered by many to be America's answer to Patek Philippe. The Hamilton company produced many highly accurate timepieces that in some cases resulted in a waiting list to purchase one. When you buy a Hamilton of this type you're owning a piece of American history. Buying from Girard's and you're dealing with a reputable seller who has listed this great timepiece at a very reasonable price. Don't become a disappointed collector by letting this masterpiece "slip through your hands."
