I acquired a Hamilton King Khaki Model H644550 at a swap meet today for $75. I tried to get some info about it but can only find the H644555 model. I did find a H644550 on Watchuseek that sold the beginning of the year for $280 or so? It seems that the MSRP of the 555 model is $475, however in the pic of the 550 model that sold on Watchuseek, there was a MSRP tag of $345? Looks like the same watch. is the movement different? In any case, the watch I got seems to run well. It does have a few dings and some scratches, but not horrible. I thought I got a pretty good deal until I started looking around the web. Can anyone tell me anything about the watch I bought and what it is worth with a few dings and scratches? I usually plan for about 60% off retail or so if I shop hard so for a watch in this condition, I think it should be a fraction of that. This watch has a brown leather strap. Can anyone help?
