I think you’re wrist would be perfect for the 42mm the 38 looks good on everyone so it just might be my tastes

I own this watch (blue dial). It’s gorgeous and I love it. The strap is crap though and the wrong colour. I changed it for a lighter tan rustic leather strap and the difference is significant.

A splendid review, thanks. I've the 42mm version of this watch and I love it. Like you, I love field watches. This Hamilton ticks all of the boxes, that make it an awesome field watch. I've stuck mine on a French Marine Nationale strap. The calves nubuck leather strap is far too nice for everyday wear. This is a great watch. The H-10 movement is not just a workhorse. It's tough and super accurate. This Hamilton field watch is simple, hardwearing and it looks great.

Is the lume on the titanium version better then the steel versions? For example vs H70455533?

Thanks for the video. Had to tap out after a minute because the music is so nauseating and distracting.

How much it cost

I have this watch and LOVE it! There is nothing out that is like it in the price range. This is truly an enthusiast piece and 5 day power reserve with 10 year service intervals!

I genuinely couldn’t finish the video because of the loud music in the background

Thanks for the helpful review. Any idea if the black version of this (listed along with the green and blue on the Hamilton website) also upgraded with the changes (like the "Titanium" removed), or is it the old 2020 model still?

I just got the black dial version a few days ago and it will be my daily wear, i like the smaller crown on these in comparison to the old automatics and i think the lugs are a little more curved than the older stainless steel cousins

Thanks for a great review, great pictures and excellent description, noting your preferences as such. I really like this watch in the pictures but I didn’t get to hold it until today at the local A.D. Now I’m in love! The green is just perfect, especially with the orange markers. I’d go with a 38 mm on my 17 cm wrist, it was very much better. But it’s definitely moved up a couple of notches on my wish list.

I think we aren't looking at these the correct way. Even by their own admission, these are supposed to be "playful". Modern colors on the dial, and not so many "enthusiast" details are coming from all the brands, over the next year or two. Why? to try and get younger folks interested in watches in general.

The dial doesn't bother me at all personally. I'm hoping to see it in person in the next week or two at the AD, but from what I've seen online they look great. The thing that I didn't know until this video (after watching dozens recently) is the lack of a reverser on the auto winder. Really?!? What a weird omission for such a premium movement! Ugh. Oh and of course micro-adjustments should be present at this price point.

Please use less obnoxious background music.. I liked your video but had to stop due to the constant looping generic gamer music.

Good review but music is way too loud. No music would be even better or limited only to the intro.

I do love that dial - understated green and nicely matched hands and numerals. Titanium is a bit of overkill, given that the Khaki is not a heavy watch to start with - mine is 59 g with strap - so I don't think you gain much for the premium you pay.

Hey! Love all the shots of the watch and the script and review was great! I really don't like it when reviewers just hold the watch in their hands and fumble through their review. And noted elsewhere, the music is pretty loud and when it played over your talking, your voice got quiet so it was even harder to hear 😂. Regardless, keep up the great and I look forward to what else you put out!

Damn the lume is pretty mediocre

Xd

Dude can’t hear what you’re saying because of that ridiculous music. It’s too loud lol.

Best with pull / push crown??? I don't think so... But, yes, this watch looks very nice

Great production and sound

Beautiful new khakis. I'd wear all of them, except the blue dial one. Anyway, i think i'm the only one who actually likes the glossiness of non-AR saphire crystal.

What watch are you wearing?

I really want to like these but a 40mm would be perfect. And legibility being a hallmark of a field watch, what's with the black framed hands on a dark dial? So many of these so called watch designers continue to miss the basics.

Good video - I appreciate your attention to detail. FWIW I found the background music to be very distracting. You could do without it!

With the wacky music playing and the soft volume of your voice, I really couldn't get a lot out of this. I'll re-search. This watch looks great, though.

While it's certainly true that many people prefer not having a date window, it's equally true that many, like myself, prefer having a date function on their watch. I wish Hamilton offered both options here. My first mechanical watch was also a Khaki. After 10 years it's still beloved; long lugs, no AR, and date window all being part of the charm.

Whilst I love the look of the watch, especially with that bracelet. I feel that Oris have cheaped out when it comes to the dial. I totally agree with you that for this price they should have done much more, at least applied markers. The fact that there is no micro adjust at this price ( over three grand here in the UK) is a definite bar to purchase for me anyway. Looking at it and comparing it with other watches currently on the market ( longines spirit collection etc) the oris needs to be around half the price that they're asking. There was no mention in the video of the problem Oris had with their new movement either being all but impossible to set correctly owing to the hands jerking back out of sync on adjustment, so I'm assuming they've sorted that problem out... Anyway at over £3000 I think I'll give this one a miss. See if I can snag one of the equally pretty, although difficult to obtain Sinn brightly coloured dial watch to scratch the itch, so to speak... Many thanks for the video though. Toodle Pip! Lol.

That look, esp the color scheme, with a black bezel to make it a diver watch, 40mm, good movement, bracelet or black rubber strap (both even better) - $1-2k range - I’m buying immediately.

The farcry version is really nice.

Wow, now ugliness comes in titanium! Ridiculously long lugs, with crappy AR coating and horrible lume. Not to mention the most boring dial and an ugly dull finishing on the case. 🤢🤮

What size wrist?

The word “ Titanium “ engraved on the left side of the watch is cheesy and totally unnecessary. Hamilton is also no longer a US brand but part of the Swatch group ; so a big Swiss Corporate entity .The double pin buckle bracelet is also not to my taste , in my opinion “ less is more” so just a regular pin buckle would be better. The generic and basic ETA movement , lack of lume and AR coating also are negatives. For just a little more I would buy a Damasko ; Swiss movement adjusted and regulated by Damasko, German engineering and much better quality components / specs. Nice review though .

Awful audio

Music is a little too loud, makes it hard to hear your comments, love the visual tho!

Thanks for the review bit hard to hear you with the music

Good review. Music needs to go.

I am not a fan of titanium in general but this 38mm version really looks neat ... (By the way, same here. My first automatic watch I bought when I started was Khaki Field)

Great video! First time watching one of yours. Is this updated model in stores now? I love this take on the green dial, actually!

Idk if I’d go as far as to say that the L2L dimension is “large”. Long for a 38mm case yes, but 47mm in general is just about perfect.

It's odd .Here in the UK the colour Khaki is a shade of sandy brown and what you call khaki we call olive drab. Great watches tho and love the shade of green whatever we call it lol

Lose the tunes, then maybe I'll come back

That's not kaki ( real kaki has zero green, and is close to beige, being a very light brown, made also from orange white and black but more saturated then beige. Kaki is the color of desert, earth and sand, and the name comes directly from hindi and somalese. Was used for indian army uniforms in the british army, and from 1890 was also used by british army in Somalia coz' having .45 repeting rifles and revolvers was not enough agains spears when wearing red cots... The watch color is not even olive - army green, but more like a semi-light shade of prusian blue, that is a greysh cyan or greysh turquoise, greysh Paris blue, blue-greysh smaragd green, and can be made from blue and green, greyed with white and black or by using a complementary color like red for green.

Awful backing music had to turn off

Hamilton and longines should include pliers with their watches so you could just bend the lugs over and make a bracelet out of them.

Great review, thanks! I've eye-balled the Hamilton Khaki Field watch for several years now and have never been able to quite pull the trigger, for one reason or another. This one is a nice offering, especially compared to the last version... for one thing as you pointed out, the word "Titanium" written on the side of the case looks awful. Also, the dial was a mess with the date window chopping off the 3:00 marker and then the military time numeral "15" pushed inward and out of line with the rest. It disrupts the flow of the dial (to my eyes anyway). This new design is much cleaner and I love that it has no date. It's quite beautiful but I don't understand why the watch doesn't have a screwdown crown, especially for the price! That is a deal-breaker for me, personally. I ended up checking the "field watch box" in my collection with an Orient Star Sports Outdoor. Imho,it's the perfect size at 41mm, Made in Japan, 50hr power reserve with indicator, Sapphire Crystal, display caseback, great lume, 100m water resistance, and screw-down crown. They are about half the price (on the grey market) of the Hamilton khaki field. Put it on a nato and it's damn near perfect! It's given me rock solid performance (about +5 a day) for a couple of years now and I've worn it under some pretty harsh conditions.

Thank you for the nice review! It's the first one so far for this model I think👍 It's a bit shame for lack of AR coating. Does it reflect a lot? I had khaki king once but its beautiful dial was a bit hidden because of the reflections. Anyway, this khaki field looks absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you for information. I am waiting for this product to come out on the store.

Is the sapphire AR coated? Thanks for the Lume shot! I would love to see it in pitch black.
