It’s Hammer Time!
I’ve had three Hamilton’s so far in my watch collecting career and I’m sure I’ll have more! I’ve had the 42mm blue auto, the 38mm brown manual, and now I have the 38mm white manual. What should I go for next? I really like the blue Jazzmaster and the also love the vintage WWII style aviation watch (43mm bronze). Maybe the Murph or the new Indiana Jones art deco style?

Nice watches, but I definitely showed up expecting a rapper in baggy pants.
I’ve had 2 Hammys so far and really liked them both. I first had the black pvd coated titanium Khaki Field Automatic in a 42mm case size with a date display.
But because of the long lugs on the khaki field it was just a little too big so I changed it out for the 38mm ti version with the green dial.
I can really recommend their titanium watches if you haven’t tried them yet, and the automatic movement has an 80hr power reserve that works well in my one.
I like the Jazzmaster too , then again I would love an Omega Constellation too !
Left field choices, but why not the Ventura or the Pulsar ?

Hahaha yes, that was the same thing that came to my mind when I started to write Hamilton and Hammy!

Same here, the lugs were too long for me on the 42 auto so I went for the Brown 38. But then I started likely the white dial better because it’s more versatile with different straps that I have. It’s my knock around the house, mow the lawn, watch!

Definitely left field! I’m not crazy about them for me but I do love that those exist!
Love the khaki's, they make pandas too. Hamilton rules!
I think the ceramic bezel navy scuba looks great
Or the Intramatic Chrono
Green Ti KFA looks great too, but I think you’re covered for field watches.
I think their titanium watches are worth checking out. I have the new ‘Indiana Jones’ model. I like it, but it is a bit expensive for what you get. Here it is compared to a vintage Hamilton in my collection. The strap on the new model is a Vario, which I think goes better overall than the OG.

Nice! The new one is quartz right? Is there an automatic version?
😁
That’s sharp! So is that a blue or green dial?

This one is quartz. I think the case type only comes that way. I’d have gotten a mechanical if possible. Hamilton has similar watches with Roman numeral dials, but I don’t like them as much. They’re still quartz.
Ahh man that blue dial though..
My weakness man.
Love It. Aswome watches.
Awesome post! 🤩

Keep up the good work 🙌🏾

Yes lol. It's Blue/Green. Blue with a green strip down the middle. They make a few different colorways though. I want to say red/blue, blue/yellow, and gray? But don't quote me I could be wrong.
That’s funny, I show how thought the answer to my question would be “yes” 😂 Thanks! I’ll look them up!

I’m a blue dial guy too. I love blue dials, which is crazy because I don’t even own a blue-dialed watch right now. I had some in the past but moved on, but I’m on the prowl right now for one!
I finally got a chance to try on the Murph and Murph Jr. yesterday at an AD near me! So nice!

I loved the Eureka in Morse code on the 42mm! So cool!
Hamiltons are on the rise, especially after the release of the Murph and now the Indiana Jones and Oppenheimer releases
