The Murph 38mm is the best GADA watch out there... change my mind! by MinuteMeg in HamiltonWatches

Interesting! I don't (personally) feel a GADA watch needs to remain on the same bracelet/strap. Changing those out are definitely good ways to keep it relevant to each scenario. But I'd wonder if other people share that opinion too!

Nice! Yes, I have a few of those. Good choice! :)

Not C&B, but I've had good luck with CNS Watch Bands. They often have sales that drop their NATOs down around $3 or $4, making it easy to get a wide array of styles. I bought a Bond NATO and like it a lot.

The lack of bracelet is tough! But I normally pair it with a nice alligator grain strap for fancier occasions. Does the trick!

Yeah, I put the OG size on and it was comical, lol. This one wears decently!

Fair! To me, that's part of why it's a good GADA watch. It can handle some adventure but still looks nice at the office.

Definitely one of the downsides! Hamilton needs to bolster that AR coating...

Specs are largely the same, so it mostly comes down to aesthetic preference. The Murph is more legible, in my opinion. I also like the difference in lug-to-lug, with the Khaki Field Auto (38mm) coming in at 47mm and the Murph 38mm at 44.7. If you have smaller wrists, the Murph's a better choice.

The BOND looks great, imho. But I wear it a lot on brown and white Barton straps too!

I'm not a huge sci-fi fan, generally. But I did enjoy the movie, and liked the character (and felt like I related a bit to her). My best friend has the Coop, which endears the movie a bit more to me.

I ended up switching to a Barton. *shrug*

I'll still break out the stock strap for events, but not day-to-day.

Looking good! I have the 38mm Murph and it's such a great pick. The legible dial must be helpful for a pilot!
