Getting the movement overhauled is always a good idea with a used watch - unless you know it's recently serviced. The hand may look slightly curved in the photo because it's actually moving and just frozen in the picture.HandyDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02083270175066343104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855696413978429801.post-26290447116925141202018-04-17T11:21:50.210-07:002018-04-17T11:21:50.210-07:00Hi HandyDan, thank you for the great step by step....Hi HandyDan, thank you for the great step by step. I recently came into possession of what looks to be an identical watch: https://imgur.com/a/GdYO3<br /><br />I'll be following the same steps to clean the watch (except perhaps doing anything to the movement. I am not there skills + tools wise). <br /><br />One thing I noticed that is different on my watch is that "T"s around the "Swiss" marking at 6 o'clock are missing. What could this mean? I couldn't find anything on that online, and it feels strange that Hamilton would make some lume with tritium and some not for the same model.<br /><br />Also, is the minute hand slightly curved on your watch as well?Iliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04717386764526256479noreply@blogger.com
