Hamilton
For sale is a vintage Swiss Made Hamilton "Lancaster" Chronograph watch with reference number 8946, presumably dating back to the early 1990s. It features a large yet refined stainless steel case with gold tone accents, measuring approximately 39mm in diameter and just over 15mm thick. The knurled uni-directional bezel features a tachymeter indication, with a gold tone ring on the inside. Behind the domed crystal sits a gorgeous glossy white dial, with gold tone indices and hands, a date window at 3 O'Clock, and chronograph complication in 6-9-12 configuration. Inside we find a high quality Swiss Made ETA 7750 calibre, a legendary automatic chronograph movement with 42 hours of power reserve. This calibre has been and is still widely used by the most renowned brands in watchmaking, and is known to be an absolute workhorse.
The watch comes with all three straps shown in the pictures: a Flieger-style grey leather strap with rivets, a green NATO strap, and a brown leather strap with contrasting stitching. This will allow the new owner to change things up every once in a while, as each strap gives the watch an entirely different look and feel. Evidently, any other bracelet or strap with 20mm lug width will fit this watch nicely.
The example sold here has been worn, but is in good condition considering its age. You will find some wear marks on the case and lugs, but no overly coarse damage. The case has been cleaned thoroughly, but left unpolished to maintain its original edges and curves. The domed crystal is brand new and free from scratches. The crown is original and signed with the Hamilton "H" logo. The movement was freshly serviced, and is working perfectly. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Sold as a watch only: sadly no box or paperwork are present with this piece.
Your new timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance.
