The unique and very collectible rose gold watches by Hamilton. Only produced for a single year and then the production interrupted by WWII. “After the war, the coral gold options were not reintroduced.”
 
In 1941, Hamilton W. Co. introduced coral gold (rose gold) watch models; some were in solid coral gold and others in coral gold filled. Also, they were available in yellow solid gold and gold-filled cases too.

Wristwatch
 
One of these special models from 1941, the Hamilton Myron wristwatch, a very scarce timepiece. Produced in 1941 but also, the yellow gold and gold-filled model were reintroduced in 1947 through 1951.
 
This is a UNIQUE vintage wristwatch! It is a manual wind watch powered by Hamilton's 17 jewel movement, size 14/0, caliber grade 980, sub second, U.S.A. made.
 
After 80 years, it still has the original sterling silver and pink coral finished with solid rhodium plated gold Arabic Numerals applied, bold minute track and matching white gold hands. The dial is signed with the Hamilton name and the sub-second is located at 6.
 
Case in 22.5x29mm tank (or tonneau shape) case and fancy lug design; all in 10K coral gold filled.
 
“The Myron is a good-sized watch for a model from this period. Even though the Myron is small by today's standards, it's a large watch compared to its peers.”
 
It is coming with a brand new black Genuine Leather two-piece strap. Also, we are shipping this watch with an extra bracelet, it may be the original. It is a 10K coral gold filled Speidel flex bracelet. The bracelet is not in perfect condition but it still matches perfect with this watch.

This watch is in LOVELY condition, it is a very attractive looking watch! Runs very well and keeps great time!

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.

We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust lighting when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.

The condition is pre-owned.

The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended.
Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have.
It will be carefully packed.
