Clark Gable: Ultimate Movie Star, Ultimate Watch Collector
*Originally published May 2013
Clark Gable was the King of Hollywood, amassing tremendous fame and notoriety as the stuff of Hollywood legend and the epitome of the Golden Age of film. Yet, few fans remember, or even know, that the Academy Award Winner was also a huge timepiece collector of some of the world’s most illustrious brands. A huge fan himself, Clark can also be spotted wearing his own timepieces in his famous films (along with a few bracelets!). Check out the favorites that “Frankly my dear, you should give a damn” about below.
