I have seen a few of these watches. You are correct that they were made by Hamilton. They are listed in the Ehrhardt Hamilton Identification and Price Guide on page 5. Presumably 584 of them were made starting in 1939. Speculation is that Hamilton had to produce some product with Howard on it to preserve ownership of the trade mark.
