Non-Rolex but a nice weekend watch....

Well, this is one of those watches that you look at and like from day one. Simple style, a Hamilton Khaki. 2 time zones, dive watch, auto, transparent caseback. Under $500 us, this was added to my collection last year during a trip to the caribbean.

What do you guys think?

Very nice Gerardo.... It reminds me of the JLC Master Compressor Memovox. I like it!

BTW, if you're in Cancun... don't you live on the Caribbean?

Nice watch...but would look better on the carbon-fibre strap. Just my opinion.

Where did you leave your taste, JJ? Carbon-fiber over leather? No way.

Actually I have to agree with the bald loon. It would look great on a CF strap... but it also looks good on a leather strap. The nice thing about straps is, you can have one for every occasion.

BTW, my ExpII is back on the black leather strap today!
