About 2 years ago, after much research, this became my first automatic/mechanical watch. Super watch and a total strap monster. I am a full on watch addict now.

Too bad they didn't keep the red tip on the seconds hand.

The silver dial is my daily driver and it takes to a nato so well. Absolutely kills on a bracelet too.

Handsome watch, but man the cinematography of the watch footage is amazing here, props to the team that recoded this.

At the end of the year teddy will have recommended us every color there is for the khaki field auto and im lovin it

Absolutely love my Khaki Field Auto 38 mm black dial. Perhaps, the best value available for this money.

Great Review as always! I think You missed to capture how beautiful this dial is, though. I went for this version over the black one since this one is easier to dress up but equally easy to dress down. I use mine on a leather nato which is kind of Brown and gray and it's just stunning. This dial really comes to live with different lights and straps

The dial looks great, wish they would've kept the red tip on the second hand. I've the black dial version with metal bracelet and it has practically rendered my other watches obsolete. Must resist getting this silver dial version too.

I bought the black face model for my Father in Law. He was a Steinbeck type character salt of the Earth. He passed away a couple of years ago and it came back to me. It is truly the most authentic watch i have.

I have the Khaki King silver dial (champagne color). It’s an absolute strap killer and much more versatile than I thought it might be.

High quality, easy-to-read, no frills. updated free-spun movement, 80hr PR, reasonable price. Maybe not your style, but hard to fault the Khaki line of watches. (Well, maybe the lack of AR on the sapphire. Not sure why Hamiliton eschews AR on many Khakis)

My wife bought me this watch for Christmas and I love it. Just wanted to mention that, if you're a big guy like me with an eight inch wrist, the stock strap will not fit you. I bought a long black leather strap to go with this and I think it looks better than the brown strap it comes with. Also, it looks good on a milanese mesh bracelet if you want to change up the look a bit. Wears very comfortably and it's a Hamilton, so of course it's awesome.

I bought mine some 2 years ago from eBay as a fantastic 2nd hand model! Only one minor scratch on it. Honestly I wasn’t really sold on it having the silver dial as I have a very good collection of military vintage watches, with dark dials. But the price was too good to pass on. More than happy I did buy it!😎👍🏼

Yep, I bought this as my first mechanical from teddy about 3 weeks ago.... I now own this, 2 Christopher Wards, and an Islander. Make it stop!! This Khaki is a strap monster forsure, looks really good with blue NATO, it's also my most accurate of the group.

I have the black (with red tip) dial 42mm case version on the brown leather strap as I found the 38mm a too small for my taste, but each to their own. Either size or colour are great choices at what I would call a bargain price (£365 from Jura Watches in UK in Sept 21), when one considers the overall accuracy, genuine heritage, Swiss-made build quality and useful 80 hrs power reserve. It's what I choose when just knocking around the house, doing chores or when slipping on my Hunter wellies and getting out into the countryside.

I picked up the black dial in Nassau last month, my new favorite watch!

I’m thinking about getting this watch soon as my everyday casual piece. So versatile and can be dressed up or down.

Got mine 3 days ago. Really like it! And it has lost one sec in 57 hours now. Satisfied!

I've had the previous version of this watch for 15 years and it is my go to "beater." Love the silver dial.

This is a watch I have my eyes on for a field watch and I also recommend this watch to a friend of mine. Nice timing for making this video. Thanks

Love this watch. Also have the silver dial as the lack of AR on these on the black version made it a little too reflective for my liking. On this though it’s really not an issue. Legibility, honestly is not the greatest at quick glance, but then I’m so used to wearing my SPB143 most of the time which has ridiculously good legibility. In terms of wearability though, and also accuracy(!) I’ve been super, super impressed. The dial is very pretty, it goes so well on so many straps.. I wear it often with an army green Barton’s silicone strap and it looks and feels amazing. It’s so light and slips under sleeves really easily. And genuinely this watch is running at +/-3/4 seconds per month! Very impressive and it’s surprised me on that front hugely. Can’t fault it to be honest. Lume’s shite yeah but really, so what!? For the money, this is by far the best value of all the watches I have.

That is way more awesome than my black dial model.

Got one coming monday

Teddy, I have a number of fine watches in my collection; Omega, Bell & Ross, and Longines, but I often find myself gravitating toward my two Khaki collection pieces. They are very easy to wear. You speak often of your concern with lume, so, could you please sometime address in a video what you consider to be ideal lume properties? Thank you for yet another fine presentation.

I have narrowed down my next watch purchase to this one. Been eyeing it for about four months now. Just can't find any local dealers around who have a stock.

This is my first Swiss Watch. Love it a bunch

which i would have gotten this silver dial over the black 😮‍💨

This watch would be incredible on a bracelet and no date window

I owned the silver and later sold it and purchased the black as the black is easier to read given the greater contrast.

Mine comes Friday! Can’t wait

I'm certainly looking to add another Khaki Hamilton to my collection at some point to add to the 'Murph'. There is so much choice within the Khaki line that a decision is not quite as easy as it seems. I like the manual versions as it adds that little connection to the watch but the automatics cannot be ruled out. This silver dial version is very tempting though, if there was one improvement that I could think of it would be to use black hands filled with lume. This would increase readability but I guess might loose a little bit of the minimal glamour. The brushed case is also my preference so as you say points towards and automatic. As and when I'm at the AD I could be their sometime. In summary this is certainly one of the front runners.

Great watch. Thanks for sharing. I have two Khaki Field Automating Hamilton watches (Murph & Capitaine America versions) and both of them run very accurately and that power reserve is outstanding. Thanks again for your insight on this one.

Excellent value for the money, good accuracy

I have this watch and really enjoy it! It wears incredibly thin and is super versatile. One point of contest: do not agree with the ‘comfort’ of the strap… it is simply too thick, feels plasticcy and is not comfortable at all it really hurt my wrist bones on the side and was too stiff. Looks great but awful quality imo. I wear it on a 30 dollar grey suede leather strap which is waaaay more comfortable

I have the version with the black dial but must say this silver dial is very appealing.

This is probably going to be my next watch... thank you Teddy for helping me make my mind on pulling the trigger on this one 😄👍 Keep up with the awesome content. Cheers.

Love this watch. Reminds me of Oris Modern Classic. A watch I’m hoping to find some day

These are the best budget field watches! Especially the beige dials! Combined with the pointy sword hands it comes out very dressy

I am torn between the Tissot Chemin des Tourelles and this watch. Both are about the same case diameter, both are autos with hacking second hand, exhibition case back, leather strap, both have Swiss movements, and both are suitable as dress watches and as casual watches. I might be leaning toward the Hamilton for its military heritage (I'm a veteran) and Lancaster origins (I live in Southeast PA).

This watch was my first swiss watch! Was able to get it used in like new condition for $340 after the previous owner bought it but didn't like something about it after seeing it in person.

An icon.

For the first time in my life, i can imagine me selling my two Rolex to wear my khaki automatic in a bracelete. Just imagine, not meaning i will do it. But to know i have an option if one day i run out of money to the point of selling, feels good.

Speaking personally, I just can’t have a watch with a white or silver face. I can’t read them. Not enough contrast. But it looks great, just not for me.

This is a beautiful watch, but I have to wonder what it would look like with either blued or blacked out hands. I wish they also made a 42mm variant.

I wonder why this has 100m water resist while the Khaki King only has 50m, both have a push-pull crown and screwback case.

What colour nato straps do people recommend on this

had one for years...until my dad (a guy who is not into watches) visited a few months ago and said "oh nice, can i have it?" Yes, dad. You can

I forgot what it’s called, but I like the white backing vs the silver. Will you get more of the white on your site?

How do you feel about silver face versus black face?

5:18 I have the traditional, or should I say the original Hamilton Khaki field auto which has the black face on it. Is this shock resistant feature there also? Do all H 10 movements have this shock resistant feature?

Wonder how this would look on a red band

Can't decide black or silver 😢

Why Hamilton doesnt sell it withe metalic stap they offer with the black dial one ?

To owners of this watch-- do you have any recommendations on what steel bracelet would fit? with the curved end. thank you!

I’m stuck between the khaki mechanic black dial or pvd

Есть ли антибликовое покрытие у этой модели?

Not as good as the black dial one, but still perfect watch !!!

In the back of the watch show in video, it says as reference number H704551 , but in your web site is said to be H70455553 ¿is that correct?

Would love to but I have to remain faithful to an SNZG that will never die.

whats the wrist being showed in the video?

Do most automatics allow the user to hand wind also?

Thanks for the review, this watch should've drilled lugs.

wassup teddy!!! 😎✌️

Which dial looks better silver or black?

My current most worn watch.

I admire the Hamilton brand but the fact that the 12 o'clock pip is not larger than all of the other 5 minute pips is a deal killer for me. How much would an enlarged pip cost? There are so many watch brands that have fixed this problem and they cost a lot less.

On a man’s wrist it’s just too small. Why can’t Hamilton make a 40mm version, then this would be perfect.

Must be running out of ideas. Next review will be of a diver with a NATO strap in solid blue.

Now it costs 50% more 😳. Not worth it anymore in my opinion.

Not quartz. Unsuitable.

This is such a boring watch.. modded eta and very pedestrian dial. It doesn’t deserve a price tag.

I love the channel but your neck scarves make you come off really pretentious. Your neck couldn't possibly be that cold in a studio under lights.
