Let me tell you.

I like Hamilton watches. I also like oddities and novelties. I found this in an auction on a popular online site and I won it. I think I won it for the princely sum of $40 (American (not Australian Kangaroo) dollars).

Following the auction, Darryl, the seller, shipped it to me. It arrived by United States Postal Service (a different carrier than Conjurer's jolly, jovial teller).

I opened the package, wound it, and it came back to life.

I believe this was likely worn by a woman or small feminine man around the neck. The wearer would appear stylish and be able to tell accurate time with the mechanical Swiss Made movement.

This piece will reside in my Hamilton Watch curio with my other Hamilton Watch Co. stuff.

With those crystals it really is a ball and chain. Congrats and coincidentally, that's exactly how a buddy of mine describes his third wife.
