Rare Hamilton “Coronado” men’s Art Deco design wristwatch in solid 14K yellow gold with black enamel bezel, circa 1929.
Among the most desirable of the early Hamilton models, the “Coronado” has fantastic Art Deco stylized Arabic numerals set in black enamel and hinged lugs that flex to make the watch more comfortable on the wrist. With only 1,530 examples produced in yellow gold, it is a very difficult watch to find today. This example is in crisp, excellent condition showing virtually no indications of indications of wear. Black enamel bezel is superb, with only a few very minute flea bites and nicks. Caseback is excellent and unengraved. Case measures 43mm long and 29mm wide. Dial is excellent. Has new glass crystal. This watch is powered by its correct 19 jewel Hamilton grade 979 adjusted movement.
