Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch : An Enhanced Classic

The Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch is a finely-crafted, classical-styled watch with heavy inspirations by the vintage marine chronometers Hamilton produced in the 1940s. Equipped with an H-10 movement, the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch indicates the brand’s long watch making tradition.

A concept and its form

Marine chronometer influences and inspirations speak in galore from the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch, echoing a simple, reliable and readable elegance. The crisp, white dial; the electric blue, Breguet-styled hands and dark blue numerals, minute track and other markings create a soothing sharp contrast. The entire ensemble harks to Hamilton’s watch-making heritage.

Built with solid stainless steel, the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch sports an exhibition case back; a sapphire crystal on its top; is water resistant to 10 bars and furnished with a rich, brown leather strap.

The mechanics

The Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch houses an automatic, Swiss mechanical movement. The caliber H-10 runs a date function besides regular timekeeping and store power worth 80 hours on a fully-wound mainspring. The H-10 is a Hamilton-modified ETA Caliber C07.111, with a distinctively skeletonized, mono-block rotor. The H-shape cutout is an aviation-inspired design, a signature of the instrument-traits of the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch.

A little background:

The predecessor of the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Automatic H77715553 Men’s Watch – the 46mm limited edition Navy Pioneer is a 2012 production. The design cues from the massive Hamilton marine chronometers showed more prominently in it, so in 2013, Hamilton brought out the 40 mm Khaki Navy Pioneer automatic. This particular 43mm Automatic H7771553 model is a re-redesigned version of the 2014 Navy Pioneer.

Special points recap:

• The minute track and a hobnail-edged bezel are rare features, even in higher priced watches.
• The biggest advantage of the Montre Hamilton Khaki Officer Men’s Watch is a longer power reserve; almost double of the standard 40-hours. The ETA 2895-2 from the 2014 received a tweak from Hamilton for that.
• The newer Navy Pioneer is a lot sleeker than its 2012 predecessor and also more rationally sized. The H-10 movement is much prettier than those in the basic Khaki models. Plain movement bridges receive an attractive perlage treatment from spinning abrasive bits. This forms small and extremely close, concentric circles with overlapping points. This portrays the essence of pearl’s texture.

Conclusion:

It’s tough to come up with an authentic choice under $1000 but the Hamilton Khaki Men’s Watch solves that problem. It showcases stylistic callbacks from the 1940s; is tasteful and engaging to look at and amazes with its standalone aesthetics.
