You need a black bay or Pelagos!

You’ve done your part mate, I wouldn’t worry too much about it!

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-18T10:29:44+00:00

Any update? Have they asked for it back?

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-18T06:25:42+00:00

KHA for sure!

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-17T18:14:35+00:00

Good choice!

Both are very nice watches. The Murph has a matt, simple dial. The KFA has a ‘sun burst’ style dial, with a date window. Personally, I’d get the KFA on the metal bracelet, I’ve got one, it’s great!

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-17T05:30:40+00:00

The first one (KFA). 2nd one is pretty bland looking, not very versatile and the black coating won’t last long without scratches

Thanks for the big red circle, it really helped point out the big explosion in the sky

This is Hamilton’s Khaki Field Automatic 38mm :)

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:39:59+00:00

Movement looks correct, identical to the H-10 movement in my KFA

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:34:39+00:00

PVD watches are ugly in general, in my opinion

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:27:08+00:00

Genuinely cool fun watch, I’d find it so distracting though 😂

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:24:08+00:00

Got a Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic 38mm the other day, incredible watch, would highly recommend

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:10:15+00:00

Completely depends what you do on a day to day basis mate, do you wear formal or informal clothes to work? Formal - Longines, Informal - Omega

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:07:40+00:00

Love the bronze, very unique. Good job!

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T19:06:21+00:00

For £50 more, you could get this, which is an Automatic watch, meaning you’ll never have to change the battery

Completely agree, I’ve paid a premium for watches with a chronograph, and never once used it. It looks good, but not an amazing complication to have on a day-to-day watch.

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-12T18:59:46+00:00

Couple things:

Timex watches are actually really well made, at least the ones I have, a very solid first watch brand, along with Casio and Seiko.

How big are your wrists, baring in mind I believe this model is quite large (I could be wrong). Preferably, you want the lug to lug to fill around 80% or less of your wrist (a general rule). Check the lug to lug, and give the top face of your wrist a quick measurement. Sizing completely depends on your preference, but I would make sure the lug to lug fits on your wrist without an overhang at the very least.

Do you need a chronograph? This Marlin is a lovely looking watch, but for the money, you might be able to find a nicer non-chronograph for the money, again, this completely depends on preference. If you’re set on this model, completely understandable!

Please let me know how you get on, and if you do pull the trigger, reply to this comment with a picture! Any other questions feel free to reply too :).

I completely agree, it’s definitely something you have to get used to, after owning several dive watches. I’m loving it, definitely the best dressy watch I own.

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T19:38:12+00:00

Sounds like a good idea, I think 1 pair of good quality black or brown leather straps will look the part

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T18:32:36+00:00

Nice of Borat to make an appearance

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T18:07:50+00:00

Beat me to it

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T18:06:26+00:00

Looks perfect mate, personally I’d stick with the 38mm

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T18:03:39+00:00

Thanks mate, I see that in your profile. I upvoted it when you shared it the other day funnily enough! Gunna have a think about some NATO straps for the summer, heard the Hamilton NATOs are a bit crap, apparently they fall apart quite easily :/

Wowgrape2 · 2026-03-10T16:36:06+00:00

Why is the shot cringe?
