This is a gorgeous example of the Hamilton "Piping Rock" circa 1928. One of the most collectable and iconic American wristwatches of all time. This is a fine example and the movement was overhauled January 2024. This was a proper overhaul including a complete breakdown of the movement, cleaning, inspection of parts, reassembly, lubrication and regulation. The case was also ultrasonically cleaned. Additionally an original style glass crystal was fitted.
The watch is in good condition for its age. Articulating lugs are in nice shape. The watch case and bezel have scratches and inclusions from wear and use. The dial has a darkened spot on the edge by the 2 o'clock position. Fitted with a very high quality aftermarket genuine crocodile strap (Made in France).
