Dead-on accuracy
I have a lot of watches, including some expensive ones (Rolex Submariner and a GMT Master II). I am really impressed with this Hamilton.The Pros: Nice slim case, Sapphire crystal (normally found on watches costing way more), sturdy pin locking band clasp, protected crown - and here is the best one. This watch keeps time dead on. I set it to an atomic clock, and in a week it is still dead on. This is rare for a self-winding watch - even the Rolex looses a minute here or there. The Swiss-made movement is just impressive. Hamilton claims that during normal wear, this watch can store up to 80 hours of run time - so if you take it off to sleep, it should still be running in the morning. The day and date is a nice featureCons: The hands need better luminescence, you can't read the time in darkness. The date window could be a little bigger. I wish it had a screw-down crown - the crown is protected by the case, but the water resistance is severely limited. I don't expect to dive with it, but I would like to be sure that if I am fishing, I can reach down into 2 feet of water and not have a leak. I know they claim it is good down to 165 feet, but when the seals start to get old - it could leak while washing the dishes. I just have more confidence with a screw-down crown.I still give this watch 5 stars because of the quality of workmanship and accuracy at this price range it is a great deal. It keeps a lot better time than my pretentious Rolex, so it stays in a drawer and I wear the Hamilton!

Awesome watch -
I recommend this watch. The style, size, and visual appeal are perfect for a daily wear option. The metal band is comfortable and easy to adjust. The timekeeping is spot on and with proper attention (winding) it will keep great time. A must for any watch enthusiast.

Is not so precise
I love this watch very nice looking and good price for the quality. The only think is that I was expecting more precision regarding the time. And to setup the week day is complicated.

Just what I Was Expecting & More
I like how it looks on my 7 1/4 in wrist.I think it wears a little bit bigger than 40mm watch.Nice day/date feature, I feel this makes it stand out from most other field watches.Crown guard gives it a good look for me too.50m wr not an issue for me, feel it's good enough to stand normal water splashes, and rain.Very accurate, +1 sec/day max.No AR coating on saphire glass, but I have always been able to see time and date under all conditions anyway.I love the metal bracelet version as I always have the option to swap to leather, NATO, or other straps.Overall great experience so far.! Get it!EDIT: After continuous use, accuracy is up to 0.5 seconds / day!

Great Classic Watch
The value is excellent, considering it is a Swiss watch, and the quality is excellent. I own a few Swiss watches, and this is my everyday watch. If you want something big and heavy that you can use as a weapon, get a Victorinox (Swiss Army guys), this one is lite, comfortable, and classy. Check it, and be sure to look at the back of the watch. It has two crystals with one on the back so you can see inside. She runs a little fast but adjustable. Highly recommend it; it is worth a look and your consideration.

Solid time-piece for the money
Although the MSRP of this watch tips near $600.00USD, great deals are to be found here on Amazon. Like many others stated however, any Hamilton purchased through here showcase no original authorized dealer warranty through Hamilton, as these are grey market pieces. On the other side, the seller usually provides a solid warranty should anything go wrong.In my case, there is nothing wrong with my Khaki King, and works flawlessly- perhaps even moreso than my Mondaine Evo Automatic. I also love the fact the daydate windows shift IMMEDIATELY upon hitting midnight, sometimes a rarity in these automatic watches.I purchased the stainless steel version as it was cheaper at the time vs. the leather, but ended up swapping it for a NATO strap anyway. For those curious- if you plan to get the stainless steel band later down the road, but this stainless steel version first! I keep hearing online that the strap pin holes are slightly different in terms of spacing on the leather versions, so I'm not sure it'll fit, even as per Hamilton's website. I can't attest to it, but I thought it was an issue worth mentioning.Otherwise, I'm smiling ear to ear with this piece, elegant, yet can be worn formally/casually with a simple band change. You won't regret it at these prices!

A mechanical master timepiece!
Long long ago, I had a mechanical watch. We all did! That was all that was available apart from a sun dial or hour glass! My watch was loud, not at all waterproof and didn't keep time very well. I replaced it as soon as I could with a Timex quartz watch as soon as they were invented. It kept time well but not for a long time. After that I had several Seikos. About 15 years ago a friend helped pick a clean simple Hamilton Khaki Quartz watch. I wore it with pride and a lot of comments since then. When it came time to replace it, I really really wanted a watch with the DAY of the week. Who cares about the date? We don't write cheques anymore and no one ever asks you for the date. Knowing the day of the week is far more important. So I began my search. There are several models available. I also wanted an analogue face so you can tell the time quickly at a glance rather than having to recognize the numbers etc as on a digital watch. So I settled on Hamilton. There was a choice of models: Quartz or mechanical. This time I chose mechanical partly out of nostalgia but also mechanical watches are truly mechanical marvels in this day and age. 25 jewel Swiss movement! (It turns out the oldest watch company in USA was bought in the 1974 by the same company who owns Swatch; they moved to Basel in 2003) Furthermore, the back is transparent, a cute feature that allows you to see the winder weight as well as the tiny oscillating wheel. Really neat! Conclusion: The watch is awesome! No regrets! Highly recommended!
