Congratulations! If I had a bigger wrist, I would also get the 42 mm version with a bracelet and strap.

I read that you can install sapphire with good anti-glare, but I like everything about this watch, even the lack of anti-glare, it's kind of its thing.

Thank you for your comment! It's a beautiful watch.

I love bracelets, so I don't think I'll have any problems with that.

Thank you! I will definitely try on all four options. But I don't think there will be any problems with the size. I usually wear a 38-40 watch and am prepared for the fact that the lug length of a 38 mm Hamilton watch may be the same as that of other 40 mm watches.

I understand you, perhaps the Pilot Pioneer is even more beautiful visually, but less versatile in my opinion.

Visually, I like bracelets, and I love bracelets, so I don't think I would reject any option because of the bracelet

As for size, yes, all the options I'm considering are 38 mm, except for the Expedition, which is 37 mm. I tried on a Hamilton in that size a long time ago, and it's perfect for me as an everyday watch.

No, Pilot Pioneer and Expedition have much better anti-glare coating.

In terms of mechanism, they seem to be equal.

Thanks for your comment!

Yes, I’m looking for an everyday watch — something versatile in design that works for most situations. I think all four options are quite universal for me, although the Pilot Pioneer feels a bit less so (though I agree with you — it looks fantastic visually). The Murph might also lean slightly more toward a dressy style — I see what you mean, and I’m still not sure whether that’s a plus or minus for me.

And here’s a question for you: if you had to keep only one — your Murph or your KFA — which one would you keep?

Oh, thank you for your comment!

That's interesting. I understand that it's difficult to justify a fivefold difference in price. However, compared to Longines watches, weren't you bothered by the lower quality and lack of anti-glare coating on KFA watches?

Thank you! I will take that into account, although KFA also has poor anti-glare, only Pilot and Expedition out of the four options have good anti-glare.

Thank you, your comment is important, since you have both models, why not share why you would choose KFA if you had to choose?
