Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz 38mm Black Dial with Bracelet

The Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz is powered by a highly accurate Swiss-made quartz movement, typically the ETA F06. This battery-operated movement ensures that the watch keeps precise time without the need for daily wearing or winding. It also features an End of Life (EOL) indicator that causes the second hand to jump in four-second intervals when the battery needs replacing.

While the 38mm case size is considered compact and vintage by modern standards, it sits very well on a variety of wrist sizes due to its cushion-style shape. For someone with larger wrists, the watch will have a more classic, understated military aesthetic rather than a bulky modern look. The stainless steel bracelet also helps the watch feel substantial despite the smaller case diameter.

While Hamilton has deep roots producing actual military-issued timepieces dating back to World War I and the Vietnam War, the modern Khaki Field Quartz is a commercial civilian model. It is heavily inspired by the rugged, highly legible specifications of those historical military watches. The design retains the classic 24-hour inner dial track and durable construction required by troops.

Yes, the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz 38mm is rated for 100 meters (10 bar) of water resistance. This means it is perfectly safe for swimming, snorkeling, and showering, though it should not be used for deep-sea scuba diving. The solid stainless steel bracelet is also highly resistant to saltwater and pool chemicals.
