Hamilton Watch Co. “Cushion Engraved”, 1928.  Zelda gave this watch to Charles for Christmas in 1928. The case is 14 kt yellow or green gold-filled with an engraved band around the case.  It has an old luminous dial with filled numbers and subsidiary seconds dial introduced in 1927.  The movement is the standard 17 jewel Grade 987 and is not running. Nice filled period hands.  No strap.  Suggested retail price for this watch was $52 in 1928; that corresponds to about $750 today.  What a lovely gift from Zelda!  $50-$100.
