Hamilton Thor II Asymmetric Watch Circa 1964

$1,195

Offered is this FULLY SERVICED asymmetric mechanical Hamilton Thor II watch that winds, sets, and runs great. The watch keeps excellent time. It is signed on the case, movement, dial, and crown. It can be seen in René Rondeau's book, "The Watch Of The Future" on page 227. It was released in 1964 with an original price of $65 with metal band. It is definitely "one of the most distinctive asymmetric Hamiltons, with a strikingly dramatic triangular case with curved sides." The Thor II has a more stylish appearance than the original Thor and is much more scarce.

Although it looks like it should have been an electric, Hamilton made a few mechanicals with the same avant-garde style as the electrics.
