Comments:
The Clark was a popular watch when introduced and was the second
generation to utilize Hamilton's 17-jewel 980 movement. At the time
of introduction, the Clark was Hamilton's longest wristwatch and it
was curved to fit the wrist.
The Clark is often confused with the
Yorktowne which was introduced in 1940. Each utilize the same
Wadsworth case only the Clark case is 14K gold-filled while the
Yorktowne case is 10K gold-filled.
