Hamilton Khaki Field King Auto Silver - Leather Ref. H64455523 |
Today, we would like to offer their outdoor Khaki collection- a timeless epoch under their belt since 1914, a continuation of their military history in the design of form follows function. This Khaki collection is the epitome of best value Swiss manufacturing timepieces today. Strong history known that radiates robustness and reliability, no wonder even from elite collectors to those starting their watch collecting journey, would still favor and appreciate a solidly built all-rounder watch that Khaki watch provides.
The Khaki Field King Automatic Silver Ref. H64455523 sets forth as a perfect example of what we just mentioned above. The Khaki Field King is a tribute to its military pedigree, much like their MIL-W-46374 spec watch produced specifically for use by navigators in the U.S. Air Force during the 60s and 70s, while their field watch dates back even earlier during World War 2 in the 1940s. This particular version sets forth where it designed to be the perfect combination of a vintage piece with modern technology. Measuring wittily at 40mm wide and 11.15mm in height, a combination of both brushed and polished stainless steel throughout the case mimics the typical sporty yet with beautiful contrast. Further, at 40mm, the Khaki Field King Auto bears 50m water resistant and wears exceptionally well and versatile from most of our wrists, both for men and women.
Original MIL-W-46374 specifications |
Ok, we are not done with the case built. Further, the case features a domed sapphire crystal accentuating above the thick polished bezel. Paired on the opposite side with a screw-in exhibition case back with essentials specifications engraved onto it. The flanged crown has knurling on it, done with the right size for one to wind the watch up with ease.
Moving onto its silver-ish military-spec dial, it is done and conformed to look precisely like the MIL-W-46374, while let us described it like how Eminem rhymes his selective words with his instrumental bars- uncluttered, vintage, utilitarian, soldier-ly, and versatile. The dial took the ode-to-the-past aesthetic, like, for instance, the vintage looking silver colour that only bears the “Hamilton” and “Khaki Automatic” titles on the dial, keeping the sterile look with simple 12 and 24-hour military scales, syringe hands, and all of them done with luminous. There is both day and date display done nicely at the top, resulting in the legibility of the field watch while keeping things balanced symmetrically. Strapping the Khaki Field King Auto to the wrist, one can conclude the built for function above all things and built to last like during wartime, while most of us believed only to do from desk-diving to cafe hopping to be our daily activities.
Quality multi-finished polishing in Switzerland |
The Khaki Field King Auto Silver Ref. H64455523 is powered by its automatic Caliber H-40, which is a tweaked 25-jewel ETA day/date displays with center seconds movement. The main tweak has the power reserve pumped up to 80 hours while having the frequency of the balance slowed from 4Hz to 3Hz, or from 28,800 beats per hour to 21,600bph. Further, the mainspring got lengthened due to the reduction of the barrel arbor’s core. This allows a longer power reserve benefiting a hand-wound movement, with the lower beat-rate reminds one of an old school hand cranker found on vintage military watches. With all this said, Hamilton truly is the few that can produce such movement upgrade on a large scale and further being well priced.
Hamilton paired the Khaki Field King Auto Silver Ref. H64455523 with a 20mm sturdy brown calf leather strap with matching brown color keepers that goes oh so well with the silver dial, making it suitable for all occasions and conditions.
SuperLuminova for Superb Glow In Dark |

Anyone looking for a sporty evergreen field-watch vibe with its impeccable build quality and upgraded movement, for the money, Hamilton made the Swiss-made Khaki Field King Auto unrivaled in its price segment and attractive for all tiers of watch-lovers.
