Any Hamilton fans out there?

Picked up my first. Khaki field 42. Love it, especially with the 11mm thickness. The sapphire case back is pretty cool too for a $450 watch.

That is a cool watch and one I often recommend to others looking for a watch who are not complete lunatics like us.

I really like that panda chrono they released a few years ago.

I agree on all these accounts. My Khaki Field is a constant in my collection and a joy to wear. The Intra- Matic chronographs have been on the radar a lot lately...I may need to add one.

I own the Jazzmaster Small Second Auto with a black Breitling croc strap on it. Great watch!

I have one Hamilton in my collection, the Khaki, Navy Surf. I've found it to be a much more comfortable wear on a Nato band as opposed to the metal band provided. The black (1/4 orange) bezel and orange highlights on the dial really stand out. Time keeping has been perfect.

My mistake, I'm referring to this watch as the SURF when I meant to say SCUBA. So sorry for my old man moment, Cheers.
