Hamilton Thor
Very scarce Hamilton "Thor" men's Space Age design wristwatch in 10K white gold fill, circa 1960.
The "Thor" has a dramatic shield-shaped case with floating lugs, and was one of the few asymmetric-cased models that Hamilton made with a conventional mechanical movement instead of the Electric movement. It was priced at $85.00 in 1960 and is very scarce in white. This is only the second example I have ever offered. It is in excellent condition showing only a few specks of brassing to the bezel corners and tips of the lugs. The caseback is excellent and unengraved. The case measures 38mm long and 31mm wide. Refinished black dial is superb. Has new acrylic crystal. The watch is powered by its correct 22-jewel Hamilton grade 770 manual wind movement, serviced by me a few years ago and still running strong.
