Comments: The Perry is one of the more stylish Hamilton offerings of the early '30s. Cased in a modern design that was reminiscent of the streamlined styles popularized by the automobile industry, the Perry sported radiator type grills on either side of the case that created a unique and bold impression.
The Perry was one of Hamilton's moderately priced models which was introduced to compete with Elgin and Waltham in what was becoming an increasingly difficult market.
The Perry was offered in 14K yellow and white gold filled only.
