Hamilton Electrics: Meteor |
Another iconic shape from the Hamilton factory!
Only produced for 2 years starting in 1960, it can be found with either the 500A or 505 calibres. My example below with the black/gold dial is the common one but there is also a silver dialled version.

Unless the dial has been refinished, they often look a little tired and my example is no exception...but I don't think this one warrants a dial refinish; best to keep original if possible.
|
The hands are probably not correct. They are the correct shape but they should have a black painted centre.

Unengraved back. 10K GF.
