1910 Working Hamilton Pocket Watch – Railroad Grade 990L – For Sale
UPDATE: This watch has since been sold but I wanted to leave up this post to show the beauty of the watch and it’s’ movement.
I recently found this “Antique” Hamilton Pocket Watch in my watch collection. I don’t have any recollection of where it came from so I’m interested in selling it. I’ve done quite a bit of research on the details of this watch, which you will find below. From the research I’ve done a watch like this could be worth as much as $400 to $500. Similar watches of this Grade, 990L, are going for that or higher on ebay. This is considered a Railroad Grade watch, meaning it was so accurate that Railroad workers could use them. Hamilton also put a lot of work into it’s movements and they are well known for their artistic damaskeening on the movement which turns this watch into more than just something to tell time by but also into a piece of art.
