Vantage Electric 130E By Hamilton Clearview Watch
Offered is this FULLY SERVICED (ultrasonic wash, rinse, and lubrication) Hamilton-Vantage Electric watch. Covered in René Rondeau's book "The Watch Of The Future" on pages 95-96, it was released as a solution to compete with low cost imports under a different name, Vantage. It runs great and keeps time to well under 30 seconds variation per day. The watch has a brand new battery just installed. The hack function works properly, and the watch starts right up each time the crown is pushed in from the setting position to the running position. This example is virtually New Old Stock, and has the original mint Z-Pin on the balance, so it will run as it did when new from the factory.
This example was an attempt by Hamilton to make a Vantage version of the Hamilton Electric Clearview, making it an interesting way to show what is inside your watch at a price point much lower than for the Hamilton Electric Clearview.
