What time is it? Watches and horology

That's lovely. 36mm?

Have been looking at a new everose date just recently. Very tempting.

@rogan - I reckon that's a watch made to be worn exclusively on that lovely bracelet...

Thanks all.

Change is fun

Very nice - what strap/colour is that?

Cheers!

Its a watch gecko simple leather in light brown. Liked the look of the JPM vintage but couldn't really justify it & this was half the price. Seems quite nice.

Got nothing against the bracelet mind, this was always going to go on a leather strap for me though.

Not joking, I’ve bought the exact same strap for mine!

I’m looking for the same - can’t decide between these at the moment...

That grey dial may look good with a strap that constants against it, which is what the stainless doesn’t do as it’s so close.

You might be right...

Snap!

It's almost like we've all seen the pictures of vintage explorers on leather straps & tried to imitate them for a fraction of the cost!

Perlons are an underrated strap. I have a few and definitely prefer them to Natos.

What model is that. I've been looking at Hamilton day dates but only saw ugly stuff like this

never noticed that this had blue hands. its a beauty

Haha - busted! Mind you, these days the Everest is a better choice for a tool watch than an Explorer; I don't believe in babying watches, but I'm not sure I'd be brave enough to ding a 1016, even if I could afford one...

Will look into those straps, ta.

Gold Daytona and a Gold Sub in WoS T3 Heathrow!

☺️☺️☺️ it’s hard to photograph but it’s a looker

love that movie!

It's the Khaki Field Day Date: https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-ie/h70505833-khaki-field-day-date-auto.html

Random one - does anyone watch Combat Dealers? Bruce Compton (sp) seems to have a large selection of good watches.

Thanks, yep it's 36mm. I looked at new ones for a while but they're all just too chunkified for me (not just the DJ, all new watches it seems).

192 hour power reserve anyone?

60k? I'll take both.
