Pete Regnier's Hamilton Raleigh Watch

1932 Hamilton Raleigh

​

"In 1930 Hamilton retired most of the original geometric models and introduced a bunch of new replacements that would be made for the next few years.  One of the new models was the Raleigh, produced through 1932.

​

The Raleigh came in all three gold filled options, green, white or natural yellow.  It came with a luminous dial or an etched numeral dial.  Models came plain or engraved."

​

Dr. Regnier's timepiece is a plain version of a Hamilton Raleigh in a 14K yellow gold-filled case showcasing an etched gothic numeral dial and a three piece case.  Case measurements are approximately 30mm in width x 40mm. The Raleigh has its original leather watchband. It is powered by a grade 987-F manual hand winding movement with 17 jewels. It cost $50 in 1932 -- the equivalent of $850 in 2020 (!!!)
