Could easily be as you say but all I know is that it worked for the scratches I had at that time.

Bob

Seems to me that I have used toothpaste and Kleenex tissues to polish scratches out of my Hamilton Khaki's crystal which is supposed to be sapphire.

Bob

Congratulations, the watch looks good. You da man.

I wear a watch day in and day out. The only time it comes off my wrist is when I shower and reset the time on my watch at the same time. I don't normally carry a cell phone, only when we leave the...

Now that looks good. Have fun building it.

I grew up wearing a watch to tell time and still do. I carry a camera to take photos. I like using an item the has only one specific purpose. I hate cell phones where you whole life gets stored on,...

That is a problem today, you never know who really owns the rights to the name on a lot of items or who even owns the company for that matter.

Bob

Very nice, even has what we would call the pusser broad arrow mark.

All my life I have only had one watch at a time. Somehow I now have two, one of which sits strapless in a drawer. The one I'm wearing stays on m wrist 24/7 only coming off when I shower. I'm now...

Exactly and you don't have to justify any of it.

Bob

I have never considered matching a watch to the shirt I was going to wear. I always thought that a black or brown leather band on a silver or yellow watch with a classic dial face went with anything....

As I said, it all depends on what you value more besides keeping decent time. Who looks at $500.00 Timex watches? Sub $100.00 Timex watches are more than good enough to keep decent time. If you are...

Considering all that, if you only require a wrist watch to keep decently accurate time, a Timex battery powered quartz watch is more than good enough for the job. If the battery dies, just buy a new...

Yes, solar powered wrist watches have batteries and over a long period of time they may not charge as well as they should. From the little I have read on the subject that long time could be 8 - 10...

Yes, I think if I bought another watch it would be a solar powered quartz based one. They probably are the most accurate time keepers and require minimal battery replacements. It would also mean I'd...

I only have one auto and it stays on my wrist 24/7 except when I shower so never a problem with it stopping.

After reading this thread I find that hard to believe. :angel:

Bob

Always amazed to see tourists wearing jewelry in countries where you could get mugged or worse for the runners you are wearing.

Bob

Turns out Hamilton reduced the beat count to 21600, close to the 21000 Seiko likes. Seems to work OK so far.

Bob

Yes you are correct, the entire day of the week is spelt out. Hamilton made a slight change to the movement recently and lowered the beat count to get the reserve power up to 80 hours from 40 hours....

Thanks. I have a more than 15 year old Bulova Accutron that takes the abuse very nicely.

Yup, Hamilton has a long history beginning with railway pocket watches, I believe, in 1893. Man, I need to get longer arms or a closer focussing camera lens. It's a big watch but I have big wrists so...

Yup, looked interesting to me too. Not a watch expert so there won't be much of a review if any. So long as it keeps time and I like the looks of it then all is OK. Also wanted an automatic with a...

Was looking for an new watch and took TBS's advice to heart. Just got a Hamilton King Khaki automatic. Think I'll be pleased with it but time will tell, pun intended.
