Just wrapping up the last of my watches that I'm looking to sell or trade. One of the last ones standing is this Vintage Hamilton 68801504

I believe this is a Sea Breeze III from the mid 70's.
Info is a bit hard to find, but from my research: 14K Gold electroplated, 688 calibre movement 17 jewels. I was told it measures 37mm across, but I never actually measured it - and I will say it wears large because of the shape - especially for a vintage piece.
In great shape for the age, including what I believe is the original black strap with gold buckle. There is a flake under the crystal that I believe is from the lume, but I didn't get it removed (I'll leave that up to the new owner).
It winds perfectly fine, and stays running from the auto movement - keeping great time.
As for trades, I'll consider the following: Seiko Cocktail, Snoopy Timex Marlin, Root Beer Squale, Hamilton Intra-matic (38mm black dial or gold case) or Thin-o-matic (white dial or gold), Tissot Visodate, black dial Sumo, and I'll always be tempted by a Zodiac. Depending on what you are looking to trade, we can talk values and cash coming-or-going.
Sale price is $395 plus shipping from Edmonton (and I'll cover paypal fees for established memebers).
