Introduced in 1910, the Hamilton Grade 950 quickly earned its reputation as the finest railroad pocket watch in the world. At a time when precision defined safety and excellence, the 950 stood above all others as Hamilton’s ultimate expression of technical mastery. Every detail of this movement was designed for performance and elegance, a perfect balance of utility and art that continues to impress collectors nearly a century later.

The 23-jewel lever-set movement showcases the highest level of Hamilton craftsmanship—beautifully damaskeened bridges, solid gold train wheels, gold jewel settings, and sapphire pallet jewels. A Breguet hairspring, cap-jeweled balance, and perfectly tuned mainspring barrel reflect the brand’s relentless pursuit of accuracy. Housed in a robust Keystone Nickeloid case, the result is a timepiece that captures both durability and refined beauty, engineered to meet the unforgiving standards of America’s railroads.

In exceptional condition, this Grade 950 is a true symbol of American ingenuity and pride in workmanship. Its rhythmic ticking carries the spirit of the 1920s—a time when craftsmanship mattered and precision meant progress. For the collector who values authenticity and performance, this Hamilton 950 offers not only historical significance but timeless elegance, ready to be admired for generations.
