    I like this watch! I don’t have a small second hand watch yet. The stainless steel and black is a very classic sleek look. Like a Black Cadillac from the 50’s maybe. And it’s a Hamilton. Classssssy old school look. I like it.

    Congrats on the Hamilton. Welcome to the club. It’s a beauty. The “wire lugs” look is such a cool look.

      That's the term I was looking for "wire lugs", thanks for that! Appreciate you watching my friend! I like the looks of this piece but probably won't keep it!

    Wow 1st Hanmy on Channel and to own. Very rich Pennsylvania history Josh! For that reason always will love the Company. Great vintage vibes. Great unboxing Brother👊👊👊💯

    It's not the Hamilton I would go for but can see the quality shine from this piece.

    Very sharp! Love that case and the side profile with the bezel. Leather strap appears to be high quality. Good stuff!

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад

      Absolutely, sharp indeed! Thanks for watching Witt!

    I have this watch with the white dial and the heat-blued hands. It's nice. Certainly a keeper. My only small seconds watch.

    Nice watch! Congrats on the Hamilton! I think the date looks perfect like this and contributes to the vintage look and feel they’re going for on this one!

    • @TheTownWatch

      Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

      No date would have been good too! Thanks for watching!

  • @peteduran2545

    The date wheel should have been color matched or no date to keep the all around clean retro look.

    Grats on the new Hammy! Great choice, I had not seen this model before! Digging the wire lugs and that black enamel dial with a hint of a Breguet design to it. 😎🍻👍

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад +1

      I hint of Breguet, I can see that a little know that you mention it! Thanks for watching David!

    Congrats! Of all the Hamilton watches to get, that's one of the best imho. Been eyeing it for a long time, but I haven't picked one up. I enjoy my Hamilton watches though. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on it after spending some time with it.

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад

      Thanks Josh! I appreciate that! It's a pretty cool piece but I don't think it will stay in my collection!

    It's a very beautiful watch, I was really impressed with my Hamilton that I have and that was just an entry level quartz. Definitely a great value watchmaker with tonnes of history and legacy

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад +1

      Hamilton is a great brand! Thanks for watching my friend!

  • @WINDINGCROWNS
    @WINDINGCROWNS 3 года назад +1

    Looks really cool and the dimensions are awesome. I also like the spring bars hidden in the wire lugs. My Panerai Radomir I use to own had to have the wire lugs removed with a screw driver. This is much easier.

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад +1

      Wow, yes this is much easier than that Panerai! Thanks for watching Hector!

    Conflgrats! Can't go wrong with a Hammy. I have several I picked up over the years.
    Hamilton is known for very stiff straps that don't wear well. Replace the strap with a Colareb and your good to go. I don't get it..everyone says the same thing about the straps, but they have been that way for over 25 years since I bought my first Hammy. It must be a conscious brand decision. "Let's do a great job on everything but the strap."
    They do a great job of design and aside from the strap, their fit and finish are always excellent. They use eta movements, so they are mechanically sound. The watch is always at least an 8 of 10. The strap is a 3 of 10.

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад

      Good point about Hamilton's straps, it seems like many reviewers I've seen do mention their stiff straps. Thanks for watching!

    that's a beautiful watch Josh! love the subdial for the running seconds hand, not 100 percent excited about the arabics on the dial, but can't deny it's a beautiful looking watch!

    Very nice. Personally not my type of watch, but that’s just me. Still a great watch.
    You can get many Swatch Group watches for substantially less then retail on the grey market. Jomashop has many at very good prices.

    • @TheTownWatch
      @TheTownWatch  3 года назад +1

      This one is close to the one you have Alton but I don't believe yours has the sub dial correct? Plus yours is the white dial. Thanks for watching my friend!

    • @halfpastblog
      @halfpastblog 3 года назад

      @@TheTownWatch It is. And mine is 43mm. Part of me wishes I'd gone for the 40mm as it wears large. But that shrunken 3 on the sub seconds version swayed me to the 43.

    If the accuracy is within an acceptable range, I say, Keep the watch. After all, it is nice looking; Sears well; and, it is the only Hamilton in your collection. Keep it until a better Hamilton comes along. By the way, my first watch was a Hamilton that I received as a birthday present in the early 1950s.

    Hamilton makes a lot of different styles of watches, and this certainly different. It’s not my cup of tea, but I was surprised by how thin it is. If that’s a style that you are into, the I have no doubt it will be an excellent watch that you’ll love to wear. Good work on trying something different!
