Francis Clifford (Frank) Watt (20 July 1896 – 8 April 1971) was a Unionist Party politician, advocate and sheriff in Scotland.

He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Edinburgh Central at a by-election in December 1941, and held the seat until his defeat at the 1945 general election by the Labour Party candidate.

He was qualified as an advocate and a Member of the Scottish Bar, and was awarded King's Counsel (KC) on 20 August 1946.[1] He served as Sheriff of Caithness, Sutherland, Orkney & Zetland from 1952 [2] until his transfer as Sheriff of Stirling, Dumbarton and Clackmannan in 1961.[3] He held that position until his death in 1971.[4]
