Very scarce Hamilton “Rodney” men’s Retro Modern design wristwatch in solid 14K yellow gold, circa 1941.

The “Rodney” has proven to be fairly elusive model. It appeared only in the 1941 catalog, just before Hamilton scaled back consumer watch production to make military watches and instruments for World War II. It was priced at $80.00 in 1941. This example is in crisp, near mint condition and is the finest example I have ever offered. Sides of case and caseback show much of their original factory-applied brushed finish. Caseback is superb and unengraved. The case measures 33mm long and 22mm wide. Original gilt finish dial is superb, with exploding Roman numerals and gold pearl dots. Has new glass crystal. This watch is powered by its correct 19 jewel Hamilton grade 982M movement.

(SOLD)
