We love the character that is displayed on this antique dial, showing the true age of this watch. The styling of the vertical lines that have been carefully machined onto the dial leads your eye to the outer edge where we find 60 small minute indicators. Gold-colored numerals pair well with our gold-plated crown and hardware topped off with our olive green strap. As we turn this watch over to reveal the movement within, right away we are drawn to more gold-plated elements, with these wonderful gears peaking through this large ¾ build plate. The damaskeened lines all across this unique plate design show the true craftsmanship of the time and are something we really love and appreciate from Hamilton. 17 screw-set jewels bring a little more visual charm to this beautiful display, with the nickel-plated hardware giving them a little extra flash to complement the precious metal throughout. This watch was originally manufactured by the Hamilton Watch Company in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 1923. In Egypt this same year, King Tutankhamun's tomb was opened by Howard Carter. He began his work in Egypt back in 1891, with a number of different projects throughout that time, as well as a brief break during WWI when all operations were put on hold. Carter and his team eventually found the entry steps to Tutankhamun’s tomb in November of 1922 and didn’t make their way into the burial chamber until February 1923. Work on the tomb continued and wasn’t completed until 1932, ten years later. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vortic Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39891495419982,"sku":null,"price":3000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1710\/0345\/products\/LANCASTER-150_0188.jpg?v=1657213058","url":"https:\/\/vorticwatches.mom\/products\/the-lancaster-150-46mm","provider":"Vortic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
