Thanks for video which expresses your feelings about the watch so well and why you like it. Much more interesting than just banging about specs! Will go for strap version as not so much bracelet guy for EDC. I like to have the watch with its original Hamilton leather strap which is good quality and offers great contrast. Love the heritage and subtle classiness of the watch design that has naturally evolved from its field watch roots. Nothing contrived or faux vintage. A true classic and thanks again.

Just bought two Hamiltons, the Khaki Field 42mm auto (H70555533) and a Khaki Field Day Date auto with an awesome camo fabric strap (H70605993). I really don't care for many of Hamilton's other offerings, but their field watches are very special imo. I would have bought a Khaki King but the 40mm size is too small for me; I just didn't think it looked good on my wrist. Out of all their field watches, I like the King's design the best. Unlike most, I love the day date complication and where it's located.

Bought mine several years ago for $340 from Jomashop. It’s gotten lots of use and the polished bezel is all scuffed and dinged, but I love this watch. I’ve taken it swimming , hiking, vacations, daily work, evening out…it goes with everything, everywhere. I generally find field watches boring so really appreciate the day-date complication. This is a watch for life.

Love the statement that you wear the watches because YOU like them, not to draw attention. Every time I see a Rolex I assume its fake...

good review. I just got my Hamilton Khaki King with brown leather band. I love it so far (for 1 hour). I also wear business casual every day. I agree with you that this Hamilton is perfect for business casual. I think it has good looking to be used as a dress watch, too.

I have the Khaki King and tried on a 42mm Field. I felt that the 42 wore the same as the King. I have 8in wrist and it fits me well. I agree Hamilton’s lume is lacking to say the least when compared to Seiko. I personally like the position of the day and date.

Just ordered a khaki king. And you mentioned Rolex I’m from the U.K. and at the moment I wouldn’t dare put one on my wrist I’d probably get beat up and mugged on the first day 🤜🥴 great video man all the best.

It’s one of my favorite watches. If it had Seiko lume and a little AR I think it would be perfect.

Okay, I've been eyeing these but wondering if I'm not going to be happy with 40mm. I have a 7 3/8 wrist and kinda set my limit at 42mm. This hasn't looked so small in the reviews though. You know you watch a lot of reviews when you know all the reviewers wrist sizes...lol

I have a khaki pilot with the interior bezel, I love this watch, the power reserve is great and more importantly it is so comfortable to wear.

I’m a first responder so there are times I need to be able to see time in low light. I usually wear my glasses shocks because of this but mixing it up from time to time is nice.
