What makes the Lancaster 113 unique: Today we are happy to introduce this fantastic example from the Hamilton Watch Company, our Lancaster 113. This watch features such an incredibly distinctive single-sunk dial with a gold-colored portion of the second indicator that really makes it stand out against the rest of the white dial. Some subtle aging around the edges of the numerals reminds us just how old this watch is, originally produced in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 1936. The machined titanium case with nickel-plated crown and hardware makes every pop nicely and stand out in a crowd. Our olive strap softens off the look and gives this watch a natural quality. The movement that powers this watch shows us the true craftsmanship available at the time, showcased nicely on this 912-grade piece. Geneva lines have been carefully machined across all of the build plate surfaces, giving this watch a uniform design all throughout. 17 screw-set jewels as well as gold plated gears and stainless steel hardware all play their role in guiding the viewer around to the different elements that actually give this watch life. At the same time that this watch was being produced by Hamilton, we also saw the very first superhero to be depicted in a skin-tight costume and mask. Lee Falk created The Phantom and produced it as a daily newspaper strip; he continued to work on the project until his death in 1999.
