mingus2112 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I can't keep away from vintage gens! My latest is a 1950s Hamilton Rodney. It's so damn cool! I'm sure it's a bit small for you guys, but I've been getting used to smaller watches since i've gotten a handful of vintages. Specs: Hamilton Rodney 1953-1964 10K yellow gold filled case 18-jewel 748 movement 34mm case diameter 46mm over the lugs 16mm strap width Comments?

alligoat Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Interesting watch! Certainly very 50's, 60's with the smaller size, the alpha-like hands and manual wind movement. I like the 10K gold- it's interesting how they did more gold plating back then and certainly 10K is less expensive than 14 or 18. But it still looks good. I couldn't wear that watch everyday, but it would be fun from time to time like when you're dressing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slickdick Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Nice watch! Small watches are slick. Especially if one has a big [censored] which doesn't need compensation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipSlap Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 That's exactly the watch I wished I had last night when I went to a wedding. Love the Hammies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
