Hamilton Square, 1926
Hamilton Square, 1926
This classic piece features a 14K white gold case and luminous dials. It's powered by the reliable 17 jewel, 6/0 sized 986A movement without a second hand.
Fun fact: In 1927, Hamilton upgraded the movement to the 6/0 sized, 17 jewel 987 movement with a sub second hand.
The movements have slightly different dimensions so the cases for a 1926 Square are slightly different than a 1927 Square (cut corner) case - and each is intended for it's specific movements.
The 1927 Square (Cut Corner) was also available with plain or engraved bezels; in the same year catalogue, Hamilton also introduced the Barrel to the "geometric" model lineup. The Tonneau joined the geometric lineup in 1928. The Square continued to be produced through 1930.
Both ladies and men's examples were produced.
The 986A movement grade typically came without a seconds hand register.
