Vintage Hamilton Emerson 17J Manual Wind 10K GF Men's Watch w/ Hooded Lugs - Running

Vintage 1940s Hamilton Emerson men’s wristwatch featuring a 19k gold-filled case with elegant hooded lugs and a matching gold-tone stretch bracelet. The rectangular dial showcases raised gold-tone numerals and a sub-seconds register at 6 o’clock. The crystal shows buffing and scuffing in the upper right corner, while the case and bracelet exhibit surface wear consistent with age. The manual-wind movement runs when wound but has not been tested for long-term accuracy or power reserve. The Hamilton Emerson was a standout model in the brand’s mid-20th century catalog, combining refined Art Deco design with mechanical reliability. This example is powered by the 17-jewel Hamilton Caliber 980 movement—widely regarded for its precision and craftsmanship. The serial number on the movement is G430118, placing production firmly in the 1940s. The sculpted lugs and slightly curved case make this a comfortable and stylish piece that captures the essence of post-war American watchmaking.
