The 38mm definitely suits that watch much more than the 42

“One for you and one for me.” That scene endeared the practice of gifting a watch or “time” to me and Ive since given my Dad a Speedmaster and my sister a Cartier Tank. It’s a lovely sentiment and it makes me happy knowing that once in awhile when they glance at the time they may think of me. Just a perfect gift for someone you love 🙏

Been obsessing over this watch - so glad you have covered it! Great video as always. I personally really like the display back, but after hearing your ideas I can’t deny that an engraved Endurance would be an incredible addition. Another great video

I have been away from the timekeeping space for 2 years and came back to this channel and I have to say. Wow! Such a positive difference in speed and depth in the reviews. Love you work on these. As a non native English speaker Im mindblown of the language and vocabulary alone. Keep up the good work! ❤️

Thank you for bringing up the movement issue as those are genuine concerns before pulling the trigger on this Murph watch. You continue to be the best watch youtuber in this platform by bringing genuine analysis of watches for your audience! This channel is a godsend!

Interstellar is my favorite movie and after rewatching it at the end of 2022 I decided to purchase this watch. My first and favorite Swiss watch. For me it’s a symbol of the same year as a lot of positive (some negative) life events had occurred. I highly recommend this watch…great review!

Just got the 42mm version about a week ago and absolutely love it! My first Hamilton and certainly won’t be my last. I love it’s simplicity and it wears well on my wrist. Thanks TGV for another great review! I’ve been looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this one.

Loved the video! Just got mine the other day and it hasn’t left my wrist. Used to have the 42 and sadly sold it because I couldn’t get over the dimensions. Missed it every day tho. So glad Hamilton listened to the people and re released a smaller version! It’s a special piece

What better way to start the weekend than a new episode of the Gentry. Hamilton finally got the dimensions right on the Murph. I’m a huge fan of Powermatic movements. Very accurate, robust, with a long PR.

I own the original 42mm release and it's one of my favorite pieces. Excellent move by Hamilton to pay attention to the feedback and make the smaller version available however.. I do agree with your suggestion regarding the case back. I don't mind the display but a nod to Hugo's iconic scene would make this watch God tier! 😁❤

Class, creativity and charisma...another fine Friday evening spent with TGV. Thank you.

This watch looks so good. The Cooper was my first real Swiss watch and I may just have to add this one now that it's finally at 38mm. As always thanks for the "stellar" review.

This is my favourite Hamilton ever! Always liked the Khaki models, but I didn't find any model that was really perfect for me, until this one came out. I bought it a few weeks ago and yes, the strap isn't great, but I put it on a different strap and I absolutely love it now!

Hugo asking if they could pop to Cartier at the beginning just had me straight up laughing my ass off

I have no words to describe the level of information provided and overall quality of this channel. Perfect video! Outstanding channel! Keep up the good work!

Always enjoy and appreciate the effort you put into your videos, TGV. Fantastic review and a fantastic watch from a company that listens to their customers.

Theres no doubt that a Khaki should adorn every watch collection. They are just so classy in their simplicity and I have always adored the fine pointed ends to the cathederal hands in the same way the Alpinist does. A great value piece, sure its not an investment watch but it is a perfect everyday one.

Another amazing review. I was on the fence on which field watch I was looking for. I was looking from the HAMILTON Khaki Field to the Explorer MK1. This review sold me on the MURPH 38MM. Thanks!

Hamilton are such a great brand and have something in their catalogue for every taste. I personally own and love both Interstellar watches and am pleased that in releasing the Murph in a smaller size more people get to enjoy it. Makes you wonder why they didn't release it at 40 or 39mm in the first place. Even though it would not have been strictly movie accurate it would likely have suited everyone. Great review as always.

Thank you for the details on the movement - absolutely legit owner/maintenance factors for consideration prior to buying. Also thumbs up for an ETA2824/SW200 no-date where the manufacturer has actually bothered to use variant parts to address ghost position on stem (Sinn 556 I B, take note).

My compliments on the review. So nice mix of history, technical specs and personal perspective. The 38mm dial size is perfect for my 6 1/2 inch wrist. Will be getting this once I recover from blowing out my watch budget.

I stopped watching your channel years ago but this intro got me hooked again!!!! Cheers TGV that was straight fire 🔥

Great video! I just got this watch and I must say, it's become my new favorite! It looks so great and it's dimensions are so perfect, also it's really comfortable. 👍

Great vid TGV. Every collection should have a Hamilton IMO. Pennies back on the dollar resale, but what a great history and Swiss ETA quality. Have the Jazzmaster Blue and Khaki King Champagne dial. Love them both.

Just bought the 42mm version as a Christmas gift to myself, love this movie and the watch. I have a Khaki Field Mechanical 38mm with the H50 movement and I’ve seen it not lose a second in a week, which is astonishing. Great review as always, thank you!

I like every change they've made. I think with the original one 42mm would have been okaaaaay, but the real problem was the 50+mm lug to lug, which is a chronic issue for Hamilton's case designs. They gotta take a leaf out of Seiko's book there I think.

Watching this whilst wearing my own semi-vintage Hamilton. Lovely overview, as always.

Acknowledging the effort that goes in to the production here. Bravo

I admire the quality production of your video review as much as that of this unique Hamilton! 👍 Brilliant defense of why THIS watch featured in THIS movie. Agreed that an embossed case back would have been preferable, especially considering the machined movement.

Any video with Hugo is a joy to watch. Your channel is good my friend, pure gold

It’s in my top 10 as far as collecting goes. Completely smitten with the peace. Great content, keep it up. Cheers

I own the Cooper watch (first swiss watch I ever owned) and I bought the original Murph for my daughter when she went away to college - this watch is just striking, every time she sends me a watch-check pic (it's also her way of letting me know the watch reminds her we are connected across space and time) I wish I owned it. I do think there is a market for the 38mm Murph. My only complaint is that there is no ARC on this watch, and for the money and for how attractive this dial is, it really deserves one. I'm happy they have corrected this with the release of the 38mm, wish it was also on the 42. this watch indeed looks better on the wrist than in any photos

great editing ..video as ever top rate info and content 👍👍 giving us all insight into brands we sometimes over look

Phenomenal video as always, thank you for the detailed history and meaning of watches.

Without doubt the best watch reviewer on you tube... i learn something everytime... keep up the great work 👍

I love this brand. Just bought the Khaki Field 42mm. Best value for money, in my opinion. The Murph is a stunner too. Definitely on the list. Great Vid!!

Thanks TGV ,this is the best review about this watch! Very interesting historical notions ..I own this watch and I love it

I was wondering when you’d do this !! Can’t wait for this one.

I’m still on the fence. I really love the look of this watch but I really wish they did,as you mentioned, white instead of faux and a nice looking case back. Thanks for a another great video TGV.

Another great review from the best reviewer on youtube. I own this and for the price point it is fantastic. Wears perfectly and once you replace the strap with a better one which I have done it’s true amazing

Your videos are like history tv when I was a kid salute to you urban gentry

I have the 42mm and it is my first Hamilton and I do love it. I got it before the 38mm came out. I probably would have gotten the 38mm but still love the 42. Amazing job as always.

I have been so interested in this release from Hamilton. Thank you for the review, TGV! I agree entirely with your observation regarding the case back. Given the special connection to the movie and the utilitarian movement finishing, engraved steel would have done quite nicely. With respect to the movement, while it doesn't retain the romance of having been handled by a watchmaker, it seems to be, like the movie itself, a bridge between past and future, It retains most of the original architecture of the base ETA while being robotically assembled with non traditional materials where possible. Finally, I had to laugh and call my wife to watch the intro for both, our dear Hugo, and because I just ordered a Fluco from Holben's for my vintage Benrus Series #3031, albeit a different strap! Thank you for continuing to produce this wonderful content.

I’m Vietnamese and I appreciate the way you pronounced “Việt Nam”, more accurate than most youtubers out there 5:55

Great watch. 38mm was such a smart move by Hamilton. Love the 20mm lug width too. Thanks for the review and Happy New Year TGV and the Urban Gentry.

One of my favorite channels reviewing a watch from one of my favorite movies! Toodel pip, darling!

Fantastic video, TGV! Had no idea Hugo received his astronaut qualifications! My son is quite impressed. Bringing the Jurassic and modern eras full circle!😂 Love that Seamaster! Went to the Omega AD recently and, to say they have evolved is an understatement. Hamilton has always intrigued me with their position on cinematic timepieces. I have always appreciated how they are very honest and open with how their pieces are used in film so that fans can have pieces of their favorite cinematic adventures. The Murph looks quite attractive. I think the new size really give the largest audience a great chance at enjoying the piece. I can already see how the new passion and trend to smaller pieces is already cycling through the process. Trend is introduced, trend gains steam and becomes newest fad, becomes de rigueur, looses trendiness, and then will fade. 36mm is simply too small for me, I am not a huge guy. 7” wrist. I think 38 or 39 mm fits the largest group of people, regardless of gender. It seems to be universal. I can’t stand trendiness and chasing fads like skinny jeans, high waisted to low cut pants, holes in your pants, and hairstyles that are worn intentionally to shock or point out how different or unique one is (which since it is a fad, shows simply that one is trying to join a crowd - “look I am different! Just like you”). I am really tired of every watch being criticized for not being small. Some are larger and some are smaller, but I don’t think that a watch should be criticized anymore regarding size. Of course one can go to extremes either way, but finding the perfect sized watch is part of the thrill of the hunt and part of the journey. Let the watches be what they are size wise and enjoy hunting the ones that YOU love. Excellent video, as always, TGV! Thank you as always for such an entertaining and enjoyable episode. Hope you and yours are well! Onward and upward, my friend!

Great review. The ability to easily repair a watch is important - thanks for noting the Murph’s limitations.

Fantastic. And you showed my Hamilton khaki king with the champagne dial. Which I happen to be wearing at this moment. One of my favorites.

that intro was incredible. its the first time I've ever put a video back to the start again.

I really love the tie in to the movie, so was bummed when they didn't include the morse, but still a great looking watch. I like your point on the caseback. Even if they just moved the morse to the back it would have been cool.

Incredibly informative, as usual. Well done sir! I would love to see the Hamilton from Far Cry 6 get it's own video like this in the future!

Thank you TGV for such a great and interesting Hamilton review!! I personally own the Hamilton Spirit of Liberty which is the more expensive version of this h-10 movement that can be regulated and is decorated to a higher level. The only negative I see with mine is the Hamilton watch is definitely slightly big. Mine is unfortunately 42mm. I would definitely prefer it in 40mm to even 38mm to have a more classic look. Stay healthy and well as always!! (Nicholas L) PS. I found the introduction quite funny and amusing!! ❤❤❤🦖🦖🦖🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Recently pulled the trigger on the khaki automatic and LOVE it. I feel everyone should have a hammy in their collection, incredible 'bang for buck'

Intro was perfect ! I love seeing Hugo .

Great vid. Love my 42mm version. I’m constantly in awe of that incredible dial. I wear mine on a chocolate leather strap.

Not a better way to start off a Saturday morning. A cup of tea, cookies, and Urban Gentry video. Thanks T!

I love the Murph, always wanted one. I think Hamilton made a smart choice in offering a 38mm even if it’s not exactly screen accurate, for most this will be the perfect size. Next to the Omega Seamaster imo the Murph is the most iconic movie watch of the last 25 years. 😎

Your intros are amazing. Love it

I am definitely saving up for this watch. I have loved it since the film and now it comes in my size.

Another very high quality video..thanks. I have the 38MM Khaki Field with the H10 movement. Mine is extremely accurate. When worn daily it hold somewhere around 1.5 seconds a day slow. Not sure what parts are plastic in it. My experience with regulating a watch is mixed. I've been successful with two Vostok watches, getting them very accurate. Not so much with the newer Seiko Alpinist....the reguating level was so tight I slipped off it and banged into the hairspring, causing the watch to become "bipolar". sent it back to Seiko and they fixed with full confession (was only about 3 weeks old direct from Seiko) and whatever they did didn't take long but cost me about 300 bucks total. So I'm a little gun shy about regulating anything more expensive than a Vostok these days, with or without a laser. This Murph looks a lot like the Khaki Field with a new dial and hands. Is the date still there under the dial?

Beautiful watch, beautiful Stoney! Production of the video 🤌, love it TGV. All the best 🦖

About the movement, one thing you can’t ignore is that it is very, very accurate, on the timegrapher, my murph is at 0s/day, the cooper at -2s/day, being worn, both watches deviated less than 2s on a 4 day period, I don’t have any mechanical watches as accurate as these ones. So yes you can’t adjust them yourself, by you also don’t really need to.

Looked At the khaki for my second watch but put off by the H50 rumours of spring breakage. Went worth Orient defender II PVD coated dresser version with black waffle dial and silicone strap. Happy with it.

I got a vintage 600 super compressor, and Its made me start to fall in love with other Hamilton models.

Great review, TGV!

Excellent points on the movement aspects in particular. That's why I thinks the watches featuring the 6R35 for Seiko have the upper hand, as they simply are more serviceable by independents. Still, that Murphy watch is a thing of utilitarian beauty. Thanks for the review ! 😃

Stone Island jumper. Perfect for making a nice video knowing you have Millwall away straight after..

Great review. I definitely enjoyed watching. This is an interesting Hamilton. I go between this one and the navy pioneer as which one i want for my first Hamilton

Chris Nolan went for this dual design on the Murph because he didn’t want the inner 24hr markings. He wanted the cleaner look of just the 12hr Arabics. It definitely made for a gorgeous dial. I already have the Khaki Field Automatic 38mm, so I doubt I’ll get this piece. Really enjoyed the review as usual. TGV always adds wonderful context for his reviews 👌🏼

Another amazing video! This may not mean much but I've been a fan for a few years now and I finally got my first ever luxury watch (Grand Seiko SBGN029)!. I wanted to thank you TGV for teaching me so much about watch collecting. Grazie mille!

I own the Murph 42 & 38 and the Cooper. Love all 3.

Thanks for another great video, really brightens my day, 38mm feild watches are my weakness I must admit.

Happy new year, Hugo!

Already have one in the wrist and it has become one of the most worn pieces in my collection. As far as the movement goes, I think at this price point is completely OK. Mine is running -3s per day but your regulation remark is of course, correct. To be fair however, there are versions of this movement which uses plastic/synthetic parts (ETA C07.111 I think) and Hamilton does not use those. So thumbs up for Hamilton. I also agree with you on the solid case back. We should probably keep in mind this watch was meant to appeal to masses, perhaps first time watch buyers, who love to see the movement through case, even as utalitarian visually as it is.

Brought it on the day it was released. As someone who is not really into dress watches and want something to fit the bill but could still wear it everyday, this was perfect.

Wonderful review

TGV does it again! Great review, great history lessons, and on point all around. I think the 38mm is a much better size for this watch, and I love Hamilton, but I don't think I'll be picking it up. I have more interest in going vintage, or microbrand if I am looking at another field watch. Plus, I already own the Coop watch, which I love. I don't think I need to spend the money to own both of the watches from the movie. 😂 Anyway, thanks for the top-notch content as always sir!

Perfect companion piece for my Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical. Love it for the price.

Bellissimo! Comprato il mese scorso 😉 Keep up the good work 💪🏼

You gotta love Hamilton watches! My personal fave is the black PVD-coated case Field King!

I've said it before - this is like the refined version of Seiko's Alpinist!

I just have to say I love your editing in every video, such a high level of production. Keep up the amazing content.

Completely agree with your assessment, especially the seconds hand and the caseback. A movie related caseback engraving would have been even more appealing. A little plain as a watch design for me, just my personal watch preference. I think Hamilton have done well giving the two size options, everyone catered for.

Again a great video and review from The Gentry. Thanks. I’ve really considered this watch because of its origins and size but decided against it after seeing the used lume and especially the color. As Gentry I prefer a more clearer dial and would have preferred white on black. But then again, the beige color probably fits the dust of the film Interstellar better. But I’m still very interested and may still step in with further versions.

Somewhere along the way I quit watching your videos for the watches and started watching the videos for the intros with Hugo!

Got myself the murph and the cooper for christmas, both in 42 mm, with my 8in wrist they both go well. What’s funnny is that at first i liked the murph better but the cooper has its charm as well and i end up wearing one for 2 days the other on the next 2 days and so on.

Superb show T! I love this watch. It’s just a little too dressy for my life choices HAHAHA;) it would be competing with a lot of others for wrist time in the weekend and I just wouldn’t wear it a lot!!! Love it though!!

Interstellar is a very special movie for me. One of my favourites. It reminds me of my dad. He loved it. I will buy, someday, the pilot day date Hamilton watch Cooper used. Thanks for the review TGV. Best watch reviewer on KZfaq

Hi Hugo, big fan of the channel. Quick question. Have you ever made a video about your first watch(es)? I would love to learn how it all began for you. Love your work, best wishes from Mexico.

TGV rocking that ‘when you’ve got a watch review to do at 12, and the away firm to meet at 2’ dress code 👌

Love this! Hamilton are an amazing entry level brand. Would like a 28800 beat in this watch. Great video.

I think it is a great and versatile watch. Love Hamilton, absolutely one of my favorite brands.

It's interesting hearing about how big the original 42mm was; I've heard people describe it as a "movie prop" to show up easily on camera. Meanwhile it's based on the Pioneer which was 45mm. Aviator watches can be big! 42mm is probably the perfect size, but the trend is to go smaller, so the 38mm makes sense. It's great that there are options for people with smaller wrists.

Love the Stone Island sweater

Every watch review is a movie! 😍

Amazing watch and great video 😌👍

Everyone and their dog has reviewed this watch by this point, but you are the master. Great job as always. Although a nice watch, I’d rather have the 38mm Oris Big Crown Pointer Date.

A really great walk though of the watch TGV. The 'Murph' as per the film was an old watch, the lume had gone yellow, the hands looked old and possibly a tad corroded and it was a bit scratched up. The original release (I have that one) produced as a 1:1 had as some might say 'quirks'. It's big by todays standards but the one in the film is big. The lugs are long, yes they are but they taper down a lot so don't take all measurements as how the watch will wear on the wrist. There was no AR coating on the original release, there was no AR coating on the film version, remember it's an old watch. Anyway on my wrist it fitted OK and I loved the old watch vibe made with modern tech and assembly. Having seen the new 38 at the AD in the flesh I think Hamilton did a great job, it looks just like mine but has been on a hotter spin cycle than ideal. The strap does take a bit to break in but once it has it's fine. Should Hamilton make one with white markers and lume? Definitely yes. Should they add more or better AR? Yes. Should they do an 'option' for a 2824? It would be nice but probably cost more. The thing is that once all these changes have been done is the watch still a 'Murph'? Probably not but I would consider getting one if I could justify it.

Great review. I like the khaki colour more than white. I think calling it “faux patina” isn’t accurate though…. it’s just a colour, not pretending to be distressed/aged as if it were an older watch. But, we all have our different tastes, which is what makes Watch design so interesting! Thank you for the content!
