This Hamilton 924 is faced with this extra fine Single Sunk Railroad Dial. This dial has the popular antique Hamilton signed script logo later changed to a block font. The porcelain dial has the stylized bold Arabic font numerals with every 5-minute marker highlighted in red around the outer circumference. Then we have a sunken sub chapter for the second hand. These beautiful dials are made using the two Copper plates soldered together, then coated with many layers of baked silica for that rich glass like porcelain finish. This fine dial is highlighted with the original heat treated Blued Steel Spade Hands. This pocket watch shows beautifully and is sure to be appreciated for generations to come.
