Sounds like you need to sell speedy.

Not a pilot but I do own a Khaki Auto. Actually bought the 42mm thinking it was the 38mm. I usually prefer a smaller watch but don't think this wears big at all. Decent (workhorse) movement and it seems reasonable value. Looks better IRL than in pics.

Might a side point but interestingly Hamilton watches seem to feature reasonably heavily in the latest big-screen epic space films, even if their appearance was relatively subtle. Still quite a nice product placement, I thought.
e.g:
Interstellar featured Hamilton watches, in which it played a integral part of the plot:

As did The Martian:

Anybody owned or played with a Hamilton? I've never seen one IRL but quite fancy one of the Khaki Pilot Watches as an every day option. I bought my first 'proper' watch last year (Speedy) and I'd like to add something I'm not quite so terrified of scratching/damaging into rotation.
Happy to buy used so looking at <£500. Anything in a similar price bracket I might be overlooking (i.e big face, vaguely 'piloty' or non-dressy)?
