Hamilton dispensed with making pocket watches in the late 1960's and they never (to my knowlege) used a Unitas movement.

That could very well be a genuine Swiss Unitas that the seller has decorated and stamped with the Hamilton name, but the chances that it was made by the real (Pre-Swatch) Hamilton are exactly zero.

RGM, is in fact using refurbished original Hamilton pocket watch movements in new wristwatches and they are really quite nice, but way above your price point.
