Crafted in 1920, this Antique Hamilton 992 Pocket Watch is a rare find for collectors—featuring the seldom-seen pendant set configuration instead of the typical lever set. As the second version of the iconic 992 model, it was not intended for railroad use, making it a sought-after variant among Hamilton enthusiasts. Housed in a beautifully preserved gold-filled case with a Masonic-themed back cover, and running within a minute per day, this 21-jewel timepiece combines mechanical excellence with historical charm.

Movement: Running. No service history, but it runs great. Keeping time within 1 minute per day. For Hamilton collectors—this is the 2nd version of the 992, with a very hard-to-find pendant setting. The vast majority of Model 992 watches were lever set and made for railroad use.

Case: About 50mm (2 inches) wide, this beautiful gold-filled case has wear, but no noticeable brassing. The back cover features a detailed Masonic pattern. The plastic crystal shows well.

Dial: The dial is in pristine condition with the exception of a very subtle defect starting on the outer edge near the 12-minute mark—nearly invisible and not seen with the bezel on. The hands are in good condition too.
