The Hamilton Eaton is a rare and unique model in the history of the American brand, produced exclusively for the Canadian market between the late 1940s and early 1950s. Designed in partnership with the T. Eaton Co., a famous Canadian department store chain, this watch bears witness to a time when Hamilton offered private label models intended for a demanding local clientele.
Equipped with the caliber 980, with small seconds at 6 o'clock, it perfectly illustrates post-war American watchmaking expertise. The case back is plated in 10K yellow gold, manufactured by L&K and signed Hamilton Watch Co. Lancaster PA.
With its rectangular case measuring just 21 mm wide, it reflects the elegant proportions of the era. While it was originally designed as a men's watch in the 1940s and 1950s, its refined format now makes it a unisex piece, ideal for lovers of discreet, dressy watches. Its timeless style appeals to both collectors looking for a historical piece and those looking for an elegant, lightweight watch for everyday wear.
This watch embodies both the understated refinement and timeless elegance of the 1940s, while representing a piece of Canadian commercial history, the result of the unique partnership between Hamilton and Eaton's.
This watch comes without box or papers.
