Certainly an excellent gift choice for the vintage watch collector!

Watch of the day! Day 3: Today we have featured this beautiful Hampden Trench watch powered by a 1911 Molly Stark movement. This example looks very similar to Mondays Hampden with the exception of the slightly smaller dial and khaki NATO strap. These military issued Hampden watches were really built tough! The crown on this Hampden is so fresh and unused, it still has a sharp edge at the end of the knurling!

Watch of the day! Day 2 of our week long Hampden Trench Watch extravaganza, we have featured a lovely 1910 metal dial example. This Hampden features an original military, shadow box, metal dial with original hands that have been re lumed with safe, bright, C3 based lume that has been given a vintage tint. The movement is a gorgeous Diadem lever set movement with 15 jewels, certainly a higher end movement for 1910. Paired with a black NATO style band, it looks brand new!
