Hello everyone I have been collecting watches for over 25 years now, I have way too many but I honestly love them all no matter what brand they are. I've recently left social media and now find myself...

Formex! Mostly because I've been lusting after a nice sandwich dial (see: Omega Seamaster 300 😍) love the look!
Formex for me. First impressions first though. Hamilton in hindsight looked too busy but is does give great retro vibes.
What about the VALOR from redux & Co.? It has a rotating bezel but otherwise it's a perfectly functional titanium field watch.

Hamilton for me. Not sure about the sandwich dial and not a fan of the California dial
Formex, own one. My Field accurate -5 -7 spd
Outta those 3, Formex all day. They make great watches, and this field watch is hot af 🔥

Formex. Field watches from Hamilton can look a bit generic but the Formex looks unique. The Dufrane also has an interesting dial but I know nothing about the brand or whether it has a decent reputation.
Design wise Formex. But have issues with grade 2 Ti
The Hamilton pictured maybe looks a bit better, but I am intrigued by Formex and I think the specs are better. Formex 👍
Hamilton all the way....😀
green tone, dial design, matte finishing and case shape makes formex shine, it resembles boldr watches also, dufrane is not bad either
Formex for me
Formex
Dufrane for me.
Dufrane for me, looks different
Save a few bucks and buy a SWC.
I'm considering a SWC Trench oxidized dial.
I went Formex
I like a date display and the lugs on the 42mm Hammy are so long that it felt a little too large.
My vote is for the Dufrane - looks beautiful. I'm also in the market for a green dialed titanium field watch but I've been drawn to Citizen's Promaster Tough line (Pmd56 or bn0241) - I love my Alpinist but I would prefer not to have to reset it every couple of weeks.
Team #hamilton !
Definitely Formex. While I the Hamilton I had was the stainless version not the titanium I can say I enjoy the Formex a lot more. As a bonus the lume is great.
Team Formex! :)

Hamilton gets my vote of the three.
