Serial Number 4C962 was reported as inaccurate.
Note: This 4992B was made by Hamilton from an early 992B
and is so marked as a 21 Jewel 992B. The original
Adj to Temp & 6 Pos has been almost completely
covered by the conversion and re-stamped Adj Temp
and 6 Positions in the Font and location as
expected in early Serial Number 4992Bs. Also seen
stamped on the movement, again in the expected
font and location, U.S. Army Air Corps. The watch
is housed in the expected Keystone base metal
case, with the case back engraved as follows:
NAVAGATION MASTER WATCH
