Very rare Hamilton Otis with early caliber 982 which was the caliber used in the second run of production from 1939-1940 upgrading from and 17j 980 to a 19j 982.  In overall excellent vintage condition, the Hamilton Otis is perhaps the most storied American Made vintage wrist watch.  Fashioned after the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso, there are a few different accounts of how Hamilton procured the design for the Otis; but one thing is clear, after a patent ruling in approximately 1941 brought by Jaeger-LeCoultre, the Hamilton Otis was never seen again.  This is one of the rarest watches out there - don't let it slip away.  I've had two others for sale in the past and they sell very quickly.  This Otis is of collectors / investment grade condition; however, it is priced at a discount due the some nature age deterioration of the outer track of the dial as seen in the photos.


Size:  24mm across without crown and 40mm from lug to lug
Case:  14k yellow gold filled - Very Good Condition
Movement:  Manual Wind Hamilton Cal. 982 19j - Just Overhauled 9/11/2016
Dial:  Very good - Original Black Finish with 18k Gold Applied Numerals Some missing Painted Details due to age - but that's the trade off sometimes for an original dial.  Price reduced to reflect this.
Engraving:  White Club (only 35 exampled were procured by the White Club for the White Motor Co.)
Crystal:  Excellent Original
Strap:  New Matte Black Leather
