NWA Finally - my first Swiss made watch!
Since this is the only place I can brag about my new watch, here's my first post! 😁
For months and months of watching videos and reviews of the Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic 38mm, and hearing how good the watch is - I finally did it and bought it! I decided to buy it on the bracelet because it gives me the Explorer vibes. Also, I have a bunch of cool leather straps, so I will play with it 😁
I have the baby Alpinist also in 38mm with 1mm shorter lugs, but because the Khaki Field is so thin, it feels like a smaller watch, which I like.
Have a nice day!

Thank you! I'm a big fan of the 38mm Murph! If it was available here in Croatia, I would be in a difficult situation 😂 Currently there is only the 42mm version, for now
Congratulations. Does it have different feeling than the alpinist?
Cheers indeed! Welcome to the club! Such a fantastic watch.

Thanks! Well, it is lighter and thinner than the Alpinist so I need to get used to it, that's the biggest difference. Also, I've noticed one more thing: the Alpinist wears a bit better on my wrist (I love it when the watch sits tight on my wrist, the KF would be perfect if it had one more microadjustment option). But, ask me after a couple of days, tomorrow it will be the first day I wear it 😃
Smart looking Hammy paired with a smart collector 🤙👍
Hammy Khaki Field Auto was my watch of the day today! Great choice. It wears really well at 38mm and about 10mm thickness.
Awesome. I have one coming tomorrow
Great choice! Picking up the 42mm next month. Same movement as a Hublot at a fraction of the price and far nicer looking! Enjoy.
Great choice! If I have any complaint about my first hamilton, it's that it wasn't this one. Love the brand, love that watch.
Congratulations on a beautiful timepiece.
Cheers! My first Swiss was the Khaki Quartz, and now I’m rocking my Murph in 38 also 😉

Love those! Thank you 💪
Very nice watch. Love the look of it, how practical and no nonsense it is. The small red triangle on the second hand just perfect.
