Becoming a quite desirable piece in recent years, this 1990’s Hamilton ref. 9988 ‘panda’ chronograph is one fantastic watch. This particular piece is a beautiful white dial variant, and comes with a correct bracelet and original Hamilton box. Feel free to research these models and reach out to us if you have any questions at all!

Overall condition: VG+. Tachymeter bezel paint is almost entirely retained, along with case being in great honest shape. The dial and hands look fantastic.

Crystal (mineral): VG. As on most mineral crystal watches that are 30+ years old, there are some very light marks (I hesitate to say nicks or scratches, as they are much more minimal than what that tends to imply). The crystal was hand-buffed and those imperfections are almost too difficult to recognize unless held at an angle to light. Some people will not even notice these at all.

Movement: EX. Visually very clean and appearing as if untouched; running very well for us on the timing machine. Service history is unknown, but we see no imminent issues.

** The ‘90s were pre-sapphire times, so these watches did come with a mineral crystals. They are not always in perfect condition compared to modern sapphires, but this one is still in great shape. We’ve noticed one or two scratches on the crystal, which we have professionally polished, that do not affect the viewing of the watch. **
