·Steve, that's an interesting watch. I haven't seen the word 'forenoon' in a long time. What does 'dog' stand for at the 17-19 hundred hour stand for?

I bought this little watch in the late winter 2020. It had been featured in the now defunct “Bring A Loupe” article on Hodinkee.
The seller was Mr. Jonathan Krovitz and I had never dealt with him before. He was excellent and I hope to do business with him again in the future.
During the summer of 2020 Mr. Krovitz sent me a message asking if he could facilitate communication between me and a Jardur representative - seems they were thinking about a re-issue of the Seatimer and there weren’t too many good examples out there to use as a reference. He wanted photos.

I really enjoy my private label Hamilton grade 944. I’m not wearing it today, opting for my 18-size, 1877 model Waltham R E Robbins in a hunter case. My Hamilton grade 944 is for D R Dingwall, Winnipeg, Manitoba, who was a railroad watch inspector about 110 years ago. They were bought out by Henry Birks & Sons about 100 years ago. Dingwall employed 22 watchmakers at that time. The grade 944 has a jewelled motor barrel as indicated by the upper barrel arbor jewel as shown by the arrow. I don’t think the grade 944 was as popular as the 21-jewel, grade 940 model for railroad use. There were 6,590 grade 944 Hamiltons, compared to 210,596 of the grade 940. Which makes the grade 944 almost a “limited edition”.
