Hi,
I would like to try and find a solid gold watch band for one of my Hamiltons (14K for '39 Brock or '49 Donald, or 10K for '55 Brockton). Whilst this appears to be a difficult task already, I don't even know what make to look for, except it won't say Hamilton. 'Speidel' could (or could not?) be a choice, but that's all I know which isn't quite enough.

Who can help please?

Buckles
I noted little to no difference between Hamilton and Gruen buckles, as a matter of interest, did those come out of the same mold?

Thanks a lot!

Chris,
Hamilton rarely sold a man's solid gold watch with a solid gold bracelet, so you're correct in assuming you will not find one signed Hamilton. We offer solid gold vintage bracelets on our accessories page - check there to see if there is something that fits your needs.

I doubt Gruen and Hamilton buckles were made by the same manufacturer, although they may well have been made in a similar style.

Best wishes,
Don

I have a 14K braclet that will fit your watch perfectly. I purchased it with a Hamilton Glenn and replaced it with a crocodile strap. It is on the samll side for a small wrist however.
