Uncommon Hamilton “Putnam” men’s Art Deco design wristwatch in 14K yellow gold fill, circa 1933.
The “Putnam” is perhaps Hamilton’s most dramatically stepped Art Deco design wristwatch from the 1930s. It was priced to consumers at $50.00 in 1933 and only 6,901 were produced in yellow. This example is in crisp, excellent condition with only very light brassing to the edges of the lugs. Caseback is excellent with a presentation engraving, but no brassing. Case measures 34mm long and 28mm wide. Refinished two-tone is superb. Gold hands show some minor plating loss. Has new glass crystal. The watch has a 17-jewel Hamilton grade 987-F movement.
