Happy New Year OF!

I’d like to share one of my favourite vintage watches.

This was surprisingly the watch that introduced me to this forum. I had been on the hunt for a Sir Echo for over a year and stumbled across what appeared to be an excellent example in a WRUW post on OF from a few years back. Fortunately for me, the seller (Norman) graciously agreed to part with this fantastic watch.

The Sir Echo model was produced from 1957-64. The watch features very cool lugs, a simple but elegant dial design, solid 14k white gold case and a 22 jewel grade 770 movement which is widely regarded as one of the best produced by Hamilton Watch Co.

 

Forgot the pics of the mechanism

 

Love the strap!

 

Thanks - glad you like it.

It’s an aftermarket strap that was made for the Ventura model but I think it fits the Sir Echo just fine

 

what a cool watch. has that Jetsons retro-future vibe to it. post a wristie when can!

 

Fantastic dial, thanks for sharing!

 

Love the look... thanks for sharing.

 

Appreciate the warm reception!
