5Scarce Hamilton “Ventura ” men’s Space Age design electric wristwatch in solid 14K yellow gold with original black dial, circa 1957.

The "Ventura" was the flagship of Hamilton's Electric watch line and was introduced in January of 1957, priced at $200.00. The "Ventura" was prominently worn by celebrities such as Elvis Presley and Rod Serling. It has a massive solid gold, triangular case with stepped fins. Examples such as this with a factory original black dial are getting harder to find. This one shows only light wear, with the stepped fins still well-defined. Caseback is excellent and unengraved. Case measures 50mm long and 32mm wide. Original black dial is excellent, with a faint scratch near the 3 o'clock marker. Hands show very faint specks of discoloration. Has new crystal. The watch is powered by its correct 11-jewel Hamilton grade 500 electric movement, just serviced and running accurately with a new battery installed.

Price $2,500. SOLD
