Circa: 1946.THANK YOU for considering our Iron Curtain era, pristine, strong running and dead accurate collectible condition Hamilton Grade 992B railroad grade movement, 16 size, open face, 21 jewels, adjusted temperature and 6 positions, double roller, Model 5, Elinvar bi-metallic hairspring, bright cupped gold jewel ...settings, all-gold balance screws, ¾ nickel plate, stem wind, lever set beauty. The phrase comes from a Winston Churchill speech that year: "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe." This excellent 992B movement is in top-notch working order, with a dead flat and true balance wheel that has a wide, fine arc and a strong, steady beat. The movement is a smooth wind, starts up on just the 4th wind with no jiggling, and lever sets as designed. The movement holds time well within the railroad-required 30 seconds per week after careful and prolonged timing and regulating before dis-assembly. With respect to appearance, this movement is looking great, with a high degree of polish, almost no tarnish, no stains or fading, no jeweler's marks or toolmarks, correct and spotless regulator needle and whip, 100% complete and correct and running strong and true holding railroad time. The movement shows very slight, ordinary wear only, no abuse, and will be a great acquisition for the lucky top bidder! Please examine each photo carefully for further details.
