Comments:
The Boone was one of Hamilton's more popular offerings. Its sleek
style and smooth bezel was accented by its coin ribbed sides giving
it an overall sophisticated appearance.
The Boone
is a member of the "first generation" to utilize Hamilton's
rectangular 980 17-jewel movement. It was also part of the
"curved to fit the wrist" series.
The "curve to fit the wrist" series
utilized a two piece case construction with a moisture proof pendant
and crown feature. Gold-filled models included in this series
were the Cabot, Nelson, Carson, Calvin and Bartley.
It was offered in two dial variations
- 18K applied gold numerals or inlaid black enamel marker and
numeral combination (shown). The inlaid black enamel marker and
numeral combination dial was the more uncommon of the two offerings.
The Boone was produced in yellow gold-filled only.
