Perfect Watch! This review has Pro's, Con's and some Tips...
By Just My $.02
For a few years now, I have been searching for the perfect watch. To be perfect, it had to have a number of features. It had to have a sapphire crystal, an accurate automatic Swiss movement, hack feature, lume hands, lume hour markers, date window, 40-44mm case, and pool-ready water resistance. Oh, and all on a brushed steel bracelet - similar to that of the Rolex Oyster bracelet.I wanted all this for under $500. Sounds impossible, right?After two months of everyday wear, I am thrilled to announce that this Hamilton is THE perfect watch! (Well, for me at least.) Hopefully you find this review helpful. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments.PROS:* Accurate - After some adjusting (see below) it's about +/- half a second per day* Crystal - Sapphire domed crystal* Height - Low profile so it fits under a shirt cuff easily* Date Window - Located at 3 o'clock, it is very easy to read* Clasp - Locking clasp on an Oyster style bracelet* Solid End Links and Solid bracelet links - It adds a nice weight to the watch. The bracelet starts off at 22mm and slims to 20mm as it approaches the clasp.* Comfort - The combination of a mid to heavy weight watch on a 22mm metal bracelet is super comfy.* ETA Movement 2824-2 - beautiful sweeping second hand at 28,800 BPH. This is an "Elaborated" grade rated with an average of +/- 7 seconds/day.* Rear Window - The back of the case has a window so you can see the movement* Lume - Unbelievably long lasting lume on hour makers, numbers and hands. I can clearly see the time at 4AM in a pitch black bedroom.* Readability - Very easy to read white numbers on a black dial.* 24 Hour Marks - This helps when calculating other time zones or if you prefer to read your watch in Military time.* Strong Metal - The case and bracelet are remarkably scratch resistance. Not scratch proof, just very resistant.* Hamilton Brand - Hamilton has a rich American pedigree that adds a bit of pride to the wearer. I urge you to read up on it. They were founded over 120 years ago in Pennsylvania, and provided quality pocket watches to railroad conductors. During World War I and II, they were responsible for outfitting the US Army troups and US Navy ships with timepieces. In the 1960's they sold to Swatch Group and are now made in Switzerland using quality ETA movements.CONS:* Bracelet - The bracelet only has 2 micro adjust holes on the clasp. There are also no half-links in the band. I am fortunate that the bracelet just so happens to fit my wrist perfectly. Some people might really miss having the ability to fine tune the length.* Crown Part I - It is BIG. I mean really BIG!! I am unable to wear this watch too loose, because the crown will slide down and dig into the back of my hand.* Crown Part II - This is not a screw down crown. The case is still water resistance up to 100 meters, so you can still swim in a pool with it. I haven't though. That's what my G Shock is for.* Crown Part III - There are no lugs protecting the crown. Unfortunately, there have been a couple of times when I caught the crown on the edge of my jean pocket. When I pulled my hand out, it clicked the crown out engaging the hack movement. The first time, I noticed it right away and just clicked it back in. The second time, it was out for about a half hour until I realized. Whoops! I have since become more aware. Twice was enough for me.* Lugs - The lugs are rather long. This doesn't bother me. It sits nicely on my 7.25" wrist. I would imagine it would look a bit bulky on someone with a really small wrist though.* No AR - The domed sapphire is uncoated...no anti-reflective.* Crystal on back of case - Not sapphire. It could be mineral. Mine has a small scratch.* Date Window - The date sits slightly off center in the date window. I know it's nit picking, but I'm just letting you know. On my copy, the date favors the top of the window more than the bottom. The variance is slight; maybe a 5/100th of a millimeter. At first I thought it was a quality control issue, but I searched the internet for pictures of this model and realized that it's pretty common. It doesn't effect the operation of the watch, and I'm the only one who will ever notice it.* Seconds Hand - No lume on the seconds hand. That would've been plain cool!* The 15 Hour Marker - Take a look at the watch dial in the pictures here on Amazon. On the 24 hour markers (13-24), the number 15 falls on the 3 o'clock position. Because the watch's date window sits there, the number 15 is placed to the left of the date window. It just looks weird to me. They could have omitted it like they omitted the number 3. But...what can you do?TIPS:I am not responsible for any mishaps while performing the following. Do at your own risk.* Adjusting Time Part I - Although my watch was pretty accurate when it arrived, I had to see how accurate I could get her. Honestly, I just love taking things apart. Oh, if you don't feel comfortable fiddling with the insides of your watch, bring it to a watch store. If you are unfamiliar with how to adjust for accuracy, just Google "ETA 2824 adjustment," that should bring you to some confidence inspiring websites. Once inside the watch, there are two simple adjustments. A fine adjust screw and a coarse adjust arm. Very simple to tweak if you are comfortable doing so. If not read the next tip...* Adjusting Time Part II - Depending on how you lay your watch at night, it may gain or loose a few seconds while you sleeping. If I leave it hanging vertically, so that the 12 o'clock is closest to the ceiling, it will gain 1 second every 3 hours. If it is resting on it's side (crown facing the ceiling), it gains about 1 second every 4 hours. If I lay it flat on it's back or front, it looses about 1 second every 3 hours. These are just my observations. Your mileage may vary. I use this technique to adjust the time with out opening the case. Every night before bed, I check my Atomic clock phone app to see how off the second hand is. By morning, it is always within a second of world time.* Scratches on the Bracelet - Inevitably your watch bracelet will get scuffed up. It happens. The solution is simple and it's something I do every few months on all my brushed bracelets. (I use the green Scotch Brite scour pads made by 3M. You'll find them in the cleaning section of your local Walmart or Target. A 3 pack is about $4.) Cut off a little piece and gently brush the bracelet in one direction. It helps that the bracelet is removed from the watch and laying flat on a table. Always brush with the grain of the existing satin stroke - never scrub back and forth. A little pressure goes a long way, so take your time.* Scratches on the Bezel - The bezel is polished, where as the rest of the watch is brushed. It is shallower than similar watches, and the edge of the domed Sapphire crystal sits just a hair above the lip of the bezel. This allows the bezel to receive it's share of abuse while protecting the edge of the Sapphire from chipping. To polish the bezel, remove the band and use a pink Cape Cod polishing cloth (you can find a whole tin of them for $15-20 here on Amazon. use the tip of your fingernail on the pink cloth to buff out any scratches. Try not to come in contact with the brushed case. If you do, use the Scotch Brite pad for touch-ups.* Grease Your Gaskets - The first thing I do with every watch I buy is open it up and grease the rubber gaskets on the back cover and on the crown. My Hamilton was bone dry. There are many videos on YouTube that will show you how. To open up the case, you can use a watch wrench/opener or just a rubber ball. I recommend you seach Amazon for "Watch Case Opener Friction Ball". They are inexpensive ($5) and won't scratch your casing. Keep a squeeze blower handy to remove any dust. For a silicone grease designed for watches, there are plenty to choose from on Amazon, and they are cheap ($8).* NATO Straps - Although you have many choices when it comes to strap options: leather, resin, nylon, etc... I got a couple of 5 ring NATO straps to go with this watch and they are super comfy. I went with the traditional James Bond stripe and a black & grey stripe. At $12 a piece, it's a small investment to see if you like the fit.SUMMARY:I love this watch! It is everything I want in a timepiece. I've previously owned and/or currently own a few of high-end automatic watches (two Rolexes, a Breitling and a Bell & Ross), this blows them away in accuracy, fit, finish, comfort and style. It has it's flaws, as pointed out above. But to me, it's perfect!Hopefully you found this review helpful. Feel free to contact me in the comments section below with any questions.

A trusty favorite!
By Nick K.
I've owned my Khaki automatic for about six years and have worn it hiking, traveling, and even to Iraq. It is durable and reliable. From a fashion standpoint, it is neutral enough to work with casual and casual-dressy clothes, and won't look out of place with a jacket and tie. For people willing to forego a high profile brand name in favor of a quality timepiece, this is a good option.
