I have not owned a Rolex but I would not be comfortable with it because I would be so worried that something would happen to it. I think you should wear a watch which you can lose and not care about it. 500$ is no money for me. But if you want to be a Rolex wearer that sum should be $10000. Poor people with Rolex is just ridicolous.

@Scott Jacobsen I'm not lying, I spend a lot of time doing outdoor activities, hence why I prefer the look and feel of the Hamilton. The OP is a brilliant watch but I find it sits between a dress and casual watch.

I own the Hammy on a brown leather strap, with the original ETA 2824 (~40 hr power reserve, higher beat rate of 28800). Bought as a gift to self for graduating college (2014). Still runs great today, brought it in to my watchmaker about a year ago and he regulated it and said the lubricants look fine and full service was not yet needed. Case has plenty of scratches from use, but the sapphire crystal looks the same as the day I got it. A real workhorse

I just ordered this Hamilton and have looked forward to it for a long time for all of the reasons you’ve stated. I do own a Smiths Everest as well, as a recent addition to my collection ... and it has quickly become a favorite on my wrist (at under $500). I’m a huge fan of German watches, and although it’s far from the “if money was no object” category... my Sinn 104 is a great one-watch collection timepiece. My goal ... a Rolex Explorer (114270).

I have the 38mm..Absolutely love it, but 2 major gripes - 1 : the crystal reflects literally EVERYTHING around you. 2 : do NOT get it wet. I wore it to clean my fish tank, and condensation built up on the inside of the crystal. It disappeared after a couple of days, but still concerning for a watch labelled as 100m water resistant. Otherwise, a great watch.

@richieb74 3 ай бұрын

100m water resistant doesn't mean water proof to 100m, even spashing water on you watch has a curtain water pressure, that's what that 100m rating says, if you submerge you watch and move it around under water that exposes the watch to higher and higher water pressure, usually 100m still isn't enough to actually submerge yet. i wouldn't actually swim with anything under 200m rating

Ive never seen Hamilton in this light and now SERIOUSLY considering purchasing this particular model. So to answer your question of the 1 watch in the $500 range Im looking at this one.

I could wear that Hammy every day as my only watch. It is a robust, no nonsense timekeeper with perfect dimensions and is a tremendous value. And it doesn't use faux patina like other Hamilton field watches. People would never give it a second look. But I would know it was more special than a dollar amount. --Michael My one watch would be my modern 36mm Datejust. But I have an emotional connection and it was an irrational choice as it was the one watch my dad wore. It is too expensive for what I really need though. A Seiko SARB033 would work for me just as well.

This is a great watch. Well proportioned, classic looking and nice robust and accurate movement with a very useful power reserve. The only major downside for me is this is a reflection magnet.

If I had to chose one watch I think it would be the SKX. Obviously the movement is behind, the crystal is not sapphire, and no solid end-links. But as many people said, the SKX is more then the sum of its parts. And there is something about the uniqueness of its design that makes you smile.

@stiglnsborgsaxbjrn3392 4 жыл бұрын

Yuval Sheer, Guy more than once said that a Seiko is a hit or a miss. I have the SKX with a “hit” movement, and I guess you probably have one, too, so I certainly agree with you. Besides, is it not funny that the SKX seem to hold up value pretty well, even that it is discontinued, and there are so many good alternatives like the Orient etc. Cheers from Denmark the Stig

Thanks for your insight. I like this question but man-oh-man is it hard to pick. I'd have to go with the following: Budget watch: Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic 42mm on a brown leather strap b/c you can swap the strap for a NATO-like version if you need to jump in a pool/lake. It's a watch that looks good enough on the wrist for a formal occasion as well as a more casual/day-to-day environment. No limit budget: Casio G-Shock MTG-B2000 (blue). It's a nice rugged watch on a black rubber strap that is sleek enough for formal occasions but built tough enough to withstand anything you throw at it, including yard work and jumping in the pool to play with my son, on top of the fact that I wouldn't fear wearing it like I would if I had an Omega Seamaster for example.

My watch collecting journey went through many stages, developed from luxury watches, primarily Rolex, to more practical, low key ones. I'm now down to 5 watches total: (1) a dress watch, (2) a diver, (3) a chrono, (4) a daily, and (5) an adventure watch. If I could own only 1 watch, it would certainly be a field watch, around 39.5 to 42 mm in diameter. A Hamilton would be very high on the list of candidates indeed.

I rarely need a dress watch; like twice a year, for a wedding, so my choice for under 500 would be my Orient Ray ii Raven, great watch despite all of the often-mentioned "shortcomings". Even though I'm not a fan of 40mm or over, but this is the time we live in. Another option would be Seiko SNK809 on a bracelet, now that's a versatile everyday watch. Unlimited budget: it's a tie between a Seiko 62MAS, which I think it's the best watch design ever (emphasis on "I THINK"), in a well worn but well preserved example OR a blue-dial vintage Rolex DateJust, like the Spanish Inquisition, nobody expects a small Rolex! Even a non-quickset-date, for a daily driver, that's a non-issue. Great content! Cheers!

I've worn a Seiko Arctura for the past 23 years! But it needed a new capacitor / maybe lithium battery upgrade and band and glass. So I went out and got a Seiko 5 instead which I've been very happy with. The 4R36 movement ran fast for a couple of weeks but is settling down. I don't expect it to be as accurate as the Arctura which was VERY accurate, +/- seconds per YEAR, but wanted a daily wearer that would also look nice at events.

Excellent review and recommendation. Great quality, price isn't high. For a one watch person, almost perfect. At the most, if needed pick up an inexpensive Orient Bambino for the few times you have to dress up. At current prices grey for the Hamilton and AD for the Orient both would come out under $500.00 to the door. Very well thought out presentation. FWIW I have a 63 year old gold Hamillton which was given to my mother by her employer at my birth, I did have it serviced once and it still works, and American made, maybe it's not worth much but it is to me.

I think the Khaki Field or a Casio Oceanus are great for a sub-$500, one-watch collection. Even with no price ceiling, I'd actually go far more modest than one might expect: the Sinn 856 IB. It's just dressy enough to work with a suit & tie, but it also has the Sinn technologies that will let you take it places where you'd be afraid of scuffing your Explorer.

Thumbs up for your KZfaq channel! I currently spend a lot of time watching your videos. Currently me one-watch-pick at around $500 would be a dive watch maybe like the Glycine Combat Sub. If money didn't matter I'd probably choose the Omega Aqua Terra, because it's a really versatile piece. Sporty and dressy at the same time.

Nicely done video. Love the Hamilton and would like to get one. My one watch would need a rotating bezel or something that adds that functionality. I wear my Seiko Turtle SRPA21 most. If cost was no object, probably a Rolex, Omega or Tudor dive watch or a Rolex Explorer, Milgauss, or AirKing.

Watch Once-over Cobra Yellow Breitlings are so good looking. I have my eye on the Cobra Yellow Seawolf.

I see this all the time.. To much people selling it pre owned. And always wanted one. But I can't made up my mind of buying it. But they say, Hamilton is such respected and good brand. But this coming August, in my birthday I am buying this. I hope I will not regret it.. Thx for the reviews and all of the infos about this watch.. ❤️ From Austria

I like the format of the video. Your camera work has gotten quite good! I owned the Hamilton you have pictured here...I flipped it to a friend and I have regretted it ever since. I was trying to downsize my collection I suppose… And for me that’s An exercise in futility😂

I've got the Khaki field mechanical for 6 months now, and it's my edc watch. It's not a dress watch but, that's not a problem. But watching videos like this one, makes me think about buying the automatic version as well.

Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz would be my pick. It’s reliable and has everything I want from a watch: accuracy, water resistance of at least 10atm, Sapphire Crystal, a date complication, reliability and I happen to like how it looks with its perfect 38mm :)

I tend to use my watch as a timer multiple times through out the day, and that would be the ONLY short coming for Khaki field to me my budget one watch. I would end up getting an Orient Mako because it meets all the function requirements and I like the dial design.

I wear my Seiko SBDC053 on bracelet 5 days a week even though my collection is over 20 pieces strong. I just love it. I’m currently saving for a snowflake. Which I’ve wanted for years, but I’d have to say that with money not being a problem, I’d want either the Omega Moonshine or a Patel minute repeater.
