Pretty lousy picture but it looks like it could be a Sutton. Hamilton made many models over the years.

Very good chance the name is inside the case back. Any chance of a better pic, I’ve got about 450 rough drawings and pics of Hamilton watches. Just an example:

There are several models it could be: a Boulton, a Dorsey, a Watson, etc. It all just depends on when the watch was made. I personally think it's a mid 30s Cameron, mostly based off of it taking female spring bars. I am also willing to bet that it has a 19 jewel 982 under the hood. It should be a snap back, and will likely have the model inside the caseback. Also using the serial number you can look it up on the pocket watch database, they have Hamilton's old records and usually can pin down wrist watches as well as pocket watches.

We have a winner! The watchmaker who asked me to post the question found out just yesterday it is a Dorsey. Well done, and thanks.

Well, not quite a winner. While I thought that it could be a Dorsey, my money was actually on it being a Cameron.

Do you have any movement pictures? It should be a 982, a very well made and accurate movement.
