Description
This is a very fine American-made Roland J. Murphy limited-edition, handmade newer watch. This particular example is from Roland’s ‘signature edition’ whereby he assembles vintage movements with newly designed cases, hands, and dials. This watch measures 41x12mm in stainless steel with a screw back and sapphire crystal. This watch is rated at 50m for water resistance. Notice the onion winding crown, screwed pins between the lugs, two-tone sunken dial, subsidiary seconds at 9:00. The finely detailed 1930s movement is the original vintage Hamilton caliber 917 pocket-watch movement in pristine condition and is accurate. The black alligator band has a flip-lock buckle. The original box and papers are included. This is a limited-edition #222/917 watches produced in this series. There are not many truly American watch companies out there, so this is your chance to collect a local highly regarded brand that will likely appreciate in value over time. This is a very fine-looking watch on the wrist!
