A shame they used a plastic movement retaining ring. They are a perfect beater though.

Hamilton is making some solid watches. Understated, simple, functional.

This one looks very nice to boot.

They are nice watches. I have a Khaki Navy. I like the internal bezel.

The buckle gave way on my 6311 Khaki strap the other day and the rotor broke off upon impact with the garage floor. I located a replacement strap for it on eBay. I'm going to look into what it'll cost to repair, I really like this watch. I'm sure glad it wasn't my DJ that hit the deck.
