That is really a handsome clean looking dial. That would look good with anything. Is that powered by a 2824? Where are Hamiltons manufactured these days? I don't own any, except some old RR pocket watches, but what I've been seeing lately sure looks good. Enjoy!

I see my movement question was answered under another topic, but would still like to know where they are made these days?

Not all models. The ones that are made is Switzerland will have "Swiss" on the dial at six o'clock. Some models are assembled in China (like my Khaki pilot's watch, for example). |

mine does not have Swill Made on the dial but it says Swiss Made on the back and the paperwork says Swiss Made as well.
Breitling never puts the Swiss Made on the dial either. Actually... there is no "Swill Made" anywhere on a Breitling.

Actually... there is no "Swill Made" anywhere on a Breitling. As for Hamiltons, it will say Swiss or Swiss Made somewhere on the watch. My Viewmatic has it on the dial. My Khaki doesn't have it anywhere. As for Breitlings, they do have "Swiss Made" on the back in French: "Manufacture en Suisse." |
