Hey guys. I've been a fan of Hamilton watches for some time for their design and value. I picked up a used Khaki chrono with black dial a month back, and have been quite satisfied with it. I recently saw this piece on the weekend and had to pick it up. The dial looks quite unique and amazing. Anyone else a fan of Hamiltons?

My first watch that broke the $500 threshold was my watch I wear to work. (as an acct I have to tone down the bling most times)

Mine isnt a chronograph, so I cant attest to that, but my AD told me that because they are under the Swatch group the movements are solid.

This is another brand that I've been very interested in lately. or some unknown reason I really like the Khaki Navy Frogman Chrono, weird looking watch, but I like it.

I think it is amazing the variety in case and dial designs Hamilton comes up with given that they use unmodified ETA movements. That plus their relatively low price point is a great combination in a brand, because you can satisfy the itch for a more "out there" design without spending a ton of cash to get it.
