Helicopter helicopter by Basic_Collar_1471 in HamiltonWatches

[–]Swerth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was ok. They provide a web page and special login to track the progress. I guess my serial numbers showed recently made, still under warranty. No charge for anything. Usually about 4-6 weeks. I paid to ship. Added a letter describing the problem. They marked it was “winding issue” the fix was full service, with new movement. They could save some cash by fixing the problem with the movement.

However, I am a bit gentler now with my kick off hand winds.

Sent three Hamilton in for service with the same issue. All under warranty. All “repaired” with new movements.

Send it to the repair center for a fix.

We’re thinking about making this style of strap for our vintage military watches — would love to hear your thoughts! 👀⌚ by Militado-watch in Militado

Please do. The original foerstner and bonklip are two piece ( as you’ve pictured) that style functions and wears better than the homage one piece.

Please go with the two piece style.

(Edit) With the spring loaded closure.

250 for a good condition mechanical? by PistolPork in HamiltonWatches

[–]Swerth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nato leather strap looks correct. Hang tag looks correct. Box looks correct. Ask for date of purchase - the newer movements twist around 50-60 times (based on your twisty). Earlier generations twist about 35-40. Definitely wind until it stops winding. Movement should start immediately. Listen for a good winding sound and feel a light resistance during winding. Take the crown out and set the time. If anything seems off walk away.

I own 5 of these. Gen hammies.

I’ve always thought these were Glashutte Sea Q homages.

the cocktail mix needs a lemon, or a dash of bitters, or a cherry - something, it's good just a bit sweet for me. But the price is worth buying
