My overall impression is that this watch will take some beating, in both senses of the word. Build quality is outstanding, I have to say that the quality of the leather is perhaps the most gorgeous of all the leather straps I’ve owned. Fantastic accuracy with it`s very highly regarded and ubiquitous ETA 2824-2 movement. Beautifully contoured and flawlessly finished case in brushed satin stainless steel with a plain polished steel bezel. Black dial. Not just any black, mind you. Not really dark grey masquerading as black. This one is as black as a black hole, providing an excellent contrast with the pure white numerals, indices and hands.The numerals are printed on a part of the dial etched with very fine grooves (like a record). This diffuses the light and makes the dial easy to read in any position as the uncoated sapphire crystal would normally be too reflective. The grooves are so fine they aren’t always visible, but I think they add a nice contrasting texture and the fact that it looks classy and well made and feels great on my wrist doesn`t hurt. For my money this watch is just about impossible to beat on many levels. It has everything to be expected in terms of versatility, classic styling, the use of highest quality materials and a specification and performance that puts much higher priced watches using the same movement (or any movement) to shame.

I could not be happier with this watch. I am but a lowly student so I had saved and scrimped for a long time for it and it has exceeded my expectations. It is light, subtly glows in the dark, has a smooth mechanism, easy to use, great auburn type colour to the great leather strap and is shiny. The only downside is that it is quite loud, its rapid ticking is very audible and when you move your wrist quickly it can rattle disconcertingly. Other than that, amazing value for a superb watch.

Excellent quality watch from Hamilton. Well proportioned, well made and styled in a classic and pleasing manner. This harks back to older watches from the post-war era in terms of styling, but combines this with very much up to date construction standards making it extremely wearable as a day to day piece. Very happy, and it won't be my last Hamilton.

What a superb watch!! It has a solid no nonsense build quality which combined with its reassuring weight, clear, uncluttered and easy to read face makes it a watch worth buying. I thik I may have to add another Hamilton watch to my Christmas list.

I've had the watch just over a week, it has hardly been off my wrist. I think it's an elegant piece of precision and love it to bits. It is also very good at telling time!

Its great to see Hamilton have stuck with their roots, looking for a military style watch i loved the look of the ww2 issue but wanted something new and that's when i found the Hamilton khaki field. great looking, very solid, the best quality leather I've seen on a watch. Its easy to read even at night the hands and numbers glow enough to read but not too much to look ridiculous. I can see this watch lasting a long long time, even though im a boilermaker it is resisting all abuse it gets through my job. All in all a great watch at a good price, that is a true military style watch unlike its huge, chunky, heavy, brightly lit competition.
