I can't decide between these 3 watches from Hamilton.
Aviation Pioneer 38mm
10bar / H10 Movement / 38mm Case / 46mm Lug-to-Lug
Jazzmaster Performer 38mm
10bar / H10 Movement / 38mm Case / 43.9mm Lug-to-Lug
Khaki Expedition 37mm
10 bar / H10 Movement / 37mm Case / 44mm Lug-to-Lug
What do you think? Which one would you take?

Surely the Khaki is the one to get if you’re getting a Hamilton? If it were my first modern Hamilton, that’s what I would get.
Your money, your decision. You’re the one that has to enjoy it, not us.
All other considerations aside, the Expedition on a bracelet would be my top choice.
The Expedition would be my choice but I'd take any TBH. 👍
Hamilton is such a great brand. I like many of their watches. It's no wonder any of their model lineups stand-tall each on its own.
It's not wrong to pick any of the three. Although initially I want to recommend you one of the piece you have mentioned, it turned out that I'm as confused as you after carefully examine the aesthetics of each model.
I guess you can only decide by yourself based on what you already own. If you already owned a field watch, you could pick up the Jazzmaster. The chunkiness of the bezel speaks volume while aviation pioneer has an elegant dress watch look.
If luminous is a thing you want, you should go with Khaki expedition automatic. Its the epitome of a field watch designed for the intended ruggedness purpose.
If I were you, I will choose khaki expedition nevertheless because it is way too cool with the earthly tone.
Peace ✌️
Out of the three I’d go with the expedition or pioneer with the expedition slightly edging out the pioneer because it has a bracelet option
Aviation Pioneer, super cool imo and if you're based in the UK I had a look and it's currently highly discounted on the Ernest Jones website (£820)
Check them out in the flesh.!!
I've had 4 Hamilton's (King quartz, King Auto, Murph, X wind auto chrono )and moved them all in because of the lack of AR coating and simple printed dials led to " legibility frustration"
.
Shame, otherwise very nice indeed.
I like the latest one, I'm willing to give them another go,but I'll check it out in person first 👍🏻
The new expedition is amazing and everything we asked from Hamilton if you're into faux patina. I'd go for that if you want a field watch. Maybe ask yourself what you want it to feel like? Everyday kind of dressy, adventure to the mountains or flying a vintage plane in the 50s?
I don't know about the other 2 models, but the newest khaki navigator FINALLY has a screw down crown, which is missing on most Hamilton watches. this is a game changer for me
No bad choices here
If it’s 37mm I’m already sold. My perfect size. And look at that bezel! No contest here.
Expedition in a landslide
Out of these, I vote for the Expedition. So good 🤩
Hey all, thanks for your feedback. I think I will go ahead with the Expedition. The history of the Khaki, compared with the robust design - > the winning formula for me.
Ok so I have all three and it will depend on what you already have in your collection. I'd rank them this way:
1) the new Expedition is the most rugged & sporty which suits me most. I chose 41 since the lug to lug is quite short.
2) the JazzMaster Performance is the most GADA. Perfect in 38 and can be easily dressed up or down.
3) the Pioneer is the most vintage feeling with its flieger style dial and fauxtina. Also the longest lug to lug and wears big with the expansive dial.
There is only one Hamilton 😎
I’m really liking the new Expedition models, that would be my choice.
Anything with Fauxtina is out. Get the Jazzmaster.
I would go for the khaki
The pioneer imo is the best looking Hamilton release in awhile. But it wears incredibly small. If you can, try to get hands on with it first. I thought for sure I’d buy it but it just felt really small on my 16.75cm wrist. If you can rock it, then I’d go with it.
Khaki
Pls also consider the Hamilton Jazzmaster Performer.
Jazzmaster
I would go for the Aviation Pioneer
I’m buying the Khaki next year as it looks like a more sporty Murph ;)
go for the jazz master. it's more casual for every day life. I personally don't like the new kakhi
Nice #hamilton
