    I own a Hamilton Field Khaki Automatic. 38mm. It has been my daily beater for the past four or five years. It is scarred and has a load of nicks and I love it. Currently sporting a perlon strap for the summer. Have not been wearing it much of late - mostly due to a pair of beautiful Stowa's (40mm Fleiger and Partition) I bought along with a Sinn 104.

    I don't think you can wrong with a Hamilton. This is the second one I have purchased and I plan to keep it forever.

    Well, this is one of my favorites, the Hamilton Whitford. Made for one year (1962), Hamilton changed the case and redesigned the floating lugs after that one year (the "Whitford B"). I imagine the original design led to quite a few jewelers visits by those who weren't careful while wearing the watch.

    Freshly serviced, the first picture is mine; the movement, case back and wrist shots taken before and immediately after service. I love the 770 movement. It is running +2 sec day. Not too shabby.

    I need a new strap. I need to find my iPhone macro for better photos. I never mastered capturing light.

    Hope you enjoy as well!

    What does it say about me that when I saw the title of this post, I thought the OP was talking about "Hamilton," the musical, and I clicked on it for that reason?

    Yes, another Hamilton fan here. The 38mm Field chrono is a classic imo.

    Here's my daily Khaki, which I adore. Very comfortable and so easy to read. It's a little more beat up now than in this picture.

    I also picked up this Masterpiece quartz on the Bay for about $10 bucks. Gave it to the old man, as it seemed to fit his style :).

    Preorders are shipping, received mine today.

    Hamilton Intra-Matic Reissue
    40mm

    Removed original black strap for a touch of color.

    A winner in design IMHO.

    This gorgeous gal arrived yesterday: 1972 Dateline LA-5603. Taking suggestions on straps because I'm definitely not a fan of the one it came with.

    Here's the catalogue from 1972. So maybe a grey pigskin would work well. Or perhaps a tan racing-style strap.

    Maybe @Syrte can chime in...

    You pulled the catalog image from the same one I was looking through to ID this :cool:

    I actually found a gray racing style strap from Meyhofer that I'm considering

    Hamilton last week. My only one, an impulse buy from eBay. As a bonus the Cal. 11 movement is showing the correct date for a change :whistling:

    I do like that blue though.
