I have many Hamilton favourites. But this one is near the top. It is a grade 952, 16-size, 19-jewel version of the iconic 950, 950 E, and 950 B. The 952 came factory cased in the case shown, with hinged covers. The 952 over the 30 years I have owned this one, has surfaced as quite collectable. Compared to many Hamilton 16-size pocket watch production, the 952 is fairly scarce in good condition. There were three versions of the 952 made over the years. This is the earliest model as indicated by the one-piece barrel bridge, and two screws holding the crown wheel core.
