Made for eight years from 1965 through 1972, the Hamilton Accumatic A-506 watch comes with a Swiss (ETA) made automatic 689A caliber movement. The silver dial on this example has a linen texture that was discontinued by Hamilton in the 1968 catalog, indicating this watch could have been made sometime between 1965 and 1967. The original dial is in excellent condition no patina visible. The applied silver numerals and markers are excellent. The paint for the Hamilton and 'H' logo, automatic script branding, and minute track is in superb condition. The silver hands are good, with light patina visible. Hands and dial have been relumed. The watch is ready to wear on a stainless steel expansion bracelet. The Swiss (ETA) made 17 jewel caliber 689A automatic movement was fully serviced November 2023 and is running well and currently performing at +/- 9 seconds per day.
