An AMAZING Panda Chronograph - Hamilton Intra-Matic Chronograph Review (2020)

[@jonparker1712]

My future wife bought me one as an engagement watch. I love it for so many reasons.

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

That’s amazing. Great choice by the wifey. Enjoy it, cherish it!

[@9alt0]

Good taste 👀, you must marry this woman at all costs.

[@marcgoodman4561]

Don't get married mate... It will ruin your life.... Seriously... It will

[@yosharian]

Take the watch and run!

[@wingi7722]

She's a keeper! Seriously, he who finds a wife finds a good thing. Her exceedingly cool tastes in watches just happens to be an added bonus

[@Norman-mn7gp]

Everyone talks about; Daytona, Speedmaster, Monaco, Navitimer ... etc. There are watches like Hamilton Intra-matic that are a pleasant surprise ...

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

This a gem in the busy world of chronographs.

[@ESCapeRazmak]

@@TeddyBaldassarre I prefer the non-chrono intra-matic. It has a beatiful dial. Hopefully I'll get one when I graduate.

[@jacksonk75k95]

Dream chrono for me is a sinn 903. Literally a navitimer but with water resistance

[@adelincatinean4784]

El primero above all of them

[@PepRex]

@@adelincatinean4784 Quite literally 5x the price the primero is.. wtf

[@Tnartn]

The slight aged hue to the white dial definitely exudes vintage nostalgia. Thanks for another great review! What a way to start a Saturday :)

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thanks for watching Nicholas. And agreed 100% when it comes to the dial!

[@fiffe7782]

How many times did Hamilton make a version on this watch?

[@richardmorris7063]

Next they're going to make ones that change colors! It is cool..

[@tracephoto1823]

It’s funny, when I first saw this watch a year ago, I wasn’t into it. Now several purchases later, lots of research and diving deep into this crazy watch world of ours, I can’t get enough of this piece. Definitely adding it to my collection this Christmas. - love all your vids, Ted. Still the best in the biz. 😎👍🏼

[@Jerbartolo]

As an Omega-phile I was really wanting to add a racing-inspired Speedmaster to my collection. I was close to pulling the trigger on a speedmaster ‘57 but at 16.5mm thick I just couldn’t do it. Then I found the Intra-Matic. Dare I say that Hamilton has designed a better racing speedmaster than Omega. So, welcome to the collection Hamilton.

[@emillagergren6929]

Fantastic quality as always, Teddy. I really enjoy the fact that you cover watches from basically all price points. My favorite watch channel by far. Cheers from Sweden!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Appreciate that, Emil! Everyone is on different steps in their journey of the hobby. All the best from the states!

[@vukotabrajovic5988]

Not only that it is my favorite Hamilton, it is one of my favorite watches currently on the market. And they did a good job by making it smaller than previous, limited edition reverse-panda model. Alongside Longines Big Eye, this is a perfect example of vintage-inspired chronograph done right. Probably my next purchase!

[@billnyfeler]

I owned a Speedy Moonwatch, and I sold it. I looked for a long time for the perfect chrono, and I ended up buying this Intramatic. It's beautiful, practical, and a great value. I haven't wanted another chrono since I got the Hamilton!

[@Brainman_2331]

I love how the watch´s design is so busy yet so simple due to its symmetry. Definetly a nice watch to look at.

[@Rch_P]

I’ve had my eye on this watch for the longest time. I believe that I’ll own it pretty soon. It will keep picking at my brain until I get it.

[@Captain-Jack]

Hamilton is such an awesome brand. Lots of history in the aviation industry, and I love my Khaki Dive watch. Great review.

[@darrenlivy]

I've had my eye on this watch for a while now. Your review might have sealed the deal for me.

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

It’s a great piece! I wouldn’t hesitate if you like it.

[@emmacatte]

It sure is a beauty, I've always admired this style of watches and the details in this Hamilton are great! Had I not recently bought the Dan Henry 1964 panda I would've gone with this one!

[@jonrocker1983]

250$ vs 2000$

[@edteach3r]

I have owned this watch for a year now and it is simply amazing... I love auto chronographs from the 60s and 70s 😊. Thanks for the video, Teddy.

[@joedingwall271]

I own it and adore it! Catches my eye throughout the day. My favorite straps for it: burgundy nato, cobalt blue leather strap, milanese bracelet

[@sporadicidiocy]

Same, I love it on a blue rally strap. Also have a shark mesh bracelet that looks great on it.

[@sebascuevas8749]

Thanks for the review Teddy, been waiting for it for a while now. I've finally decided to pull the trigger on this one, looks like the best choice for my first automatic chrono in that price point in my opinion.

[@Neko501]

You've really upped your cinematography game lately, great shots!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thank you! Glad the hard work is being noticed!

[@zz.158]

@@TeddyBaldassarre what Camera and lens did you use?

[@troybertino1230]

Great video Teddy. This is my next Hamilton. Best video I've seen on this model. I just picked up the Hamilton Frogman 42 with red dial. Love it, along with my Khaki King auto. Great job....

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Nice trio of Hamiltons. Thanks for watching and the compliments Troy!

[@paul3548]

This was my first hamilton after that I bought the Murph watch with Ltd box. I was in the market for a chronograph trailed the market looking at tudor longines and omega and a shelby baume et mercier. The hamilton won in respect to it's overall package including 100M even the basic speedy can't beat that. This is a cool watch that's hits well above its weight..

[@MrKayDeeJay]

I was hoping someone would review this particular piece, thanks Teddy!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Happy to do it! Thanks for watching!

[@mschumer]

I have to say your videos are the most professional on KZbin. You look like a high school senior but obviously you’re not. The videography and your personal presentation are excellent. Your knowledge is up there with the best. I received an email providing a great discount on this watch from an AD and was pleased to see you did this piece. It helped me make the choice. You and your support people do great work! You, the Time Teller and Federico are the top three on KZbin in my opinion each with a different vibe.

[@carllange3950]

My first watch was a mechanical chronograph that my parents gave to me when I graduated from high school in 1971. I enjoyed that watch until a repair quote came in at 3 times the purchase price. Since then, all of my chronographs (ignoring my 30 mechanical stop watches and my one pocket watch chronograph) have been quartz. The Hamilton is intriguing. I like that the sub-second tick marks are for 1/4 seconds, which matches up with the watch’s 8 beats per second movement.

[@theenavybluemonster]

I have this watch and love it. It’s a little thick but fits well on my 7” wrist. It’s a strap monster. Keeper.

[@ashwhite8610]

I own this and its even more gorgeous in person. I find myself looking at it all the time.

[@Epiha]

This is the most legible and easy to read chronograph I have seen, such beauty in simplicity and elegance.

[@rockon21ful]

Such a beautiful chronograph, great job Hamilton!! Teddy, great to see some affordable great timepieces being reviewed..

[@jdstarek]

the best at this price point. Great value

[@spaetensonaten]

Great sound editing in addition to the usual excellent visuals, Teddy! Thanks for making these videos for the community!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thanks for watching! That makes it all worth it to put in the time!

[@JosephJJ8296]

Thank you Teddy! After watching this video, I went out and got myself this Hamilton as my 3rd watch! Loving it every since! Your videos are extremely educational and knowledgeable!

[@georgechisholm3723]

Thank you for this review. I bought this watch and really enjoy it. In my opinion Hamilton’s are great watches for their reasonable asking prices.

[@chriss.2878]

Fantastic review! Your extensive knowledge of watches and delivery in these videos is impressive as well as enjoyable to view. As a result of this video I just picked up my Hamilton Panda Intra Matic and love it. Keep up the good work.

[@Mikey___]

Great review Teddy, really appreciate all the wrist shots and other gorgeous photography. Thank you

[@shumble69]

Just bought this watch,absolutely love it, fantastic value for money,amazing styling and great functionality. Your review Teddy finalised the decision to buy this watch,and so pleased I did, great review as always.

[@brianrdetweiler]

I keep saying, Hamilton is one of the best value propositions out there. They do tend to make their watches a bit large, in the 42-46mm range, so I'm glad they took the great looks of the Intra-matic 68 and scaled it down bit.

[@luisleite7393]

For me, the best hamilton watch out there. Had it side by side with their conquest line and this one clearly outshined them (looks wise). Love the panda dial. We can compar the quality (or the price) but its looks strike me as much as El Primero, which for me iss the de facto vintage chrono

[@leebalmforth2269]

Hi teddy. Hamilton have been coming out with some really good designs 😎. Keep up the good work

[@igorcicala7]

Longines Big Eye astonishing watch. a collectors' Must

[@trevbarlow9719]

I'd say this gives the big eye a run for it's money. I don't know which I prefer.

[@tods.9947]

The 7750 is “time tested”. 😊 a great review, I have the same H31 in my Pan Europ Chrono which after 5 years still keeps COSC-level time.

[@montbason]

This watch is just beautiful in all respect. It has the vintage pedigree, the ETA 7753 time tested movement, nice thickness. I'm looking for an entry valjoux and I dont think there is a better option than either this or Junghans. Excellent review.

[@ryankwok123]

A tempting graduation gift for myself in the near future... The Timex Weekender Chronograph has been favourite entry-level pick

[@antmakh]

You really went on the next level with the production quality in this video, Teddy! Beautiful watch too - love that vintage aesthetic!

[@sinatralala]

This might be the most stunning chrono I have ever seen! That crown is the PERFECT scale!!!!!!! I would love to see this same watch in a pure white face as well. Thanks for showing, Teddy.

[@sinatralala]

I placed a screengrab of this watch into my iphoto app and made the face pure white. It looks even better in my opinion. The two black dials pop like crazy. Either way, this is a wonderful timepiece.

[@carloswillatkins]

Teddy , I have to thank you for this review . I have been in love with this watch for a while. Definitely on my short list.

[@timothylee6036]

the camera work in your vids have truly evolved. I remember seeing your videos few years back with watch pics flying around. Wasn't much but there was smt special bout those haha.

[@Throttl.Therapy]

I purchased this just to see it in person and now it's part of the rotation. I even purchased replacement bands as well to give it more versatility.

[@dhassel11]

I absolutely love this chrono. Just got it last week and couldn't be happier. Anyone concerned with the height-it wears close to the wrist so the height is a non-issue

[@marcg7751]

Love this watch, I just ordered one yesterday, I cannot wait until Monday to get it, I think Im going to buy a bund band from Hodinkee for it.

[@fkos86]

I'm really starting to get interested in horology and Hamilton is the brand I keep coming back to. Affordable but quality watches, I'm looking to buy a khaki field model but this one is a beaut. Great channel btw!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

It’s a great place to start! Cool brand and if you are from the US, it’s cool to learn about their roots back in PA before they left for Switzerland in 69.

[@thaaqib89]

0:33 That's the exact pose I'd be walking around with if I could afford a Hamilton watch

[@patrick_jane2164]

that intro is so awesome I had to stop the video and comment about it!!!

[@1018Frankie]

That’s a beautiful piece, nice video, keep the good work my friend!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thanks for watching as always Francisco! 🙌🏻

[@1018Frankie]

Teddy Baldassarre don’t mention it! 👍🏻

[@pth8888]

My picks would be the Chinese Seagull and Junghans Chronoscope

[@jonathanlau6964]

I second that notion. I loved the look of this Hamilton and in fact own 4 Hamilton watches, but when I tried this on in person, the 14.5 mm was way too thick. Loved the 40 mm diameter, but because the thickness was greater than 1/3rd of the dial diameter I felt like I was wearing a bowl instead of a plate on my wrist. On the Seagull Tip (although I haven't tried one on yet), I would be thinking Baltic Bicompax or the Mercer Lexington at 1/3rd the price.

[@karlsenula9495]

Looks awesome on the wrist shots - really stands out in a classic way. Love the attention to detail too especially noted on the zoomed in shots..

[@Squeech77]

Our tastes are very similar, so I'm very glad that you do these reviews. One day I will own both the max Bill chronoscope and this Hamilton. Absolutely stunning watches.

[@Ok-551]

My Hamilton Field Watch keeps perfect time. I’ve owned a few expensive brands, Rolex, Ulysse Nardin, And Omega, and I’m very impressed.

[@m3chris1]

Have had this watch for a while now. Nice looking and the cream white dial adds vintage look. Only complaint is the thickness a bit much

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

It really does! Thanks for sharing your experience as an owner!

[@asparceproton1]

1000% agree about the lugs. Seems like they could have shortened them significantly and had the exact same vibe in a more wearable case. The lugs seem to stretch across your entire wrist. This one has to be at the top of my list for "entry level" auto chronos. I usually prefer three subdial chronos, but panda dials always trump number of subdials. Maybe I'm just ignorant of what's on the market, but it seems like beyond this you really have to go up to that $4k-$5k level of Speedy, Monaco, and Navitimer.

[@steelsteez6118]

my current favorite entry level chronogprah is the Rolex daytona. My favorite high end chronograph is the lange and sohne 1815 flyback chronograph.

[@0400081]

I bought this watch with the green face. Thanks to your channel. It really helped me decide on my watch purchase.

[@rodsalvador3608]

Beautiful! I decided to go value with the Mercer Lexington, and used the savings to pick up a Longines Legend. Thus the collection begins!

[@bluesriderDF]

Stunner of a watch. I'm a sucker for cream dials. I agree with you about the lugs. Another great video 👍

[@TheThaiTerror]

Absolutely beautiful watch! I love this watch...been eyeing it for awhile, just waiting to pull the trigger on it (Idk why). Great video and review Teddy, watching this video just encourages me to go ahead and buy it. My wallet "thanks" you.

[@omegaknight01]

I have a Jazzmaster with ETA 2892, which is incredibly accurate, and yesterday I bought a Khaki Field Aviation automatic with H30 and an 80-hour power reserve with a blue dial. Hamilton watches offer a lot for their price, which justifies their purchase.

[@NOSUCHVideos]

Seagull 1963 is definitely an entry level mechanical chronograph with history.

[@Medwin88]

Teddy you made me fall in love with thisgem! Teddy i have a request, can you review Zenith El Primero A384 edition 50th years?

[@dfunklegendfontdawg5023]

Purchased an Open Heart last fall. Love the quality. You’ve helped put this on my buy list. Great vid.

[@vb7037]

Hey Teddy, just found your channel recently, easily my favorite watch channel on youtube. Keep it up homie!

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thanks buddy! Glad you found me 🙌🏻

[@RedwoodAggie]

I've loved this since I saw it, and want to get a panda chrono some day. However, I feel like I want a Speedmaster first, so I am working toward that. Exellent review.

[@jimg518]

I recently watched your review of the Breitling Premier with the same colors as this watch (my favorite Premier color combo too). Hamilton did a great job here. I have heard of Hamilton but haven’t really followed them. I was set on getting that Breitling, but will now consider this as well. They are both great looking watches. Great video as always.

[@maxfalconi6995]

This Hamilton looks amazing and I love the date complication

[@collarsncolours]

Just bought one of these in a Milanese bracelet. Couldn't be happier with my first entry level Swiss watch

[@Jee_oon]

As a person who got into watches thanks to chronographs, this watch, with Omega Speedmaster (1861 or 321) is one of my chronograph watches that is a must in my collection.

[@calebford6318]

Beautiful! I always figured the crown would be uncomfortable due to its larger size

[@anandsharma8234]

Huge fan of the panda style & while I love this watch I decided to buy the tissot heritage 1973 as my first big watch purchase. Great video as usual, keep it up!

[@stephenmakk628]

Best low cost Chrono? I've got one, it's the Seagull 1963. Great retro style, cool look, unusual a talking point. Decent movement. Display back (if you can see it with the NATO on.) It gets my vote.!

[@nihalyapa3283]

I bought this watch today and picking it up tomorrow in Sydney Australia Hope I will enjoy wearing it

[@tatanleanduck]

Hey Teddy- for an entry level mechanical chrono I'm big on Strela. When you combine the retro styling, horological significance of the brand, and price point- you get a winning combination.

[@states7443]

Cool that your talking about this watch today i was literally looking at this watch last night for the first time saying I think im going to get it... Nice piece and good to see it in wrist

[@georgekhumalo5283]

I don't know why i took so long to subscribe to this guy's channel, he's legit

[@javiersp15]

That is some crisp B roll Teddy.

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

This one was fun to shoot. That dial is very punchy with the contrast. Thanks for watching Javier!

[@mosytube]

Nice watch and review but seems the top lugs protrude too far over your wrist. I think at 49mm lug to lug, it's a bit too big for a 6.25 wrist.

[@aaronmorgan349]

Great stuff teddy. Loving these review videos

[@kevinhuber8723]

Seriously shopping for one of these....... I have several Hamilton's and they are pretty good watches.

[@drwindsurf]

Thank you for an excellent review, I especially liked the b-roll. This is a really beautiful chronograph. Maen is coming out with chrono using the ETA 2894 that looks interesting :)

[@tomelifeisjustonebig]

I just bought this today and I LOVE IT!

[@alexlamas6324]

I have a Tissot V8 automatic chronograph and it's wonderful. Original design with that Tissot heritage.

[@Crackers2549]

Love this watch...! Even more stunning in person... And I just purchased one…! Beautiful

[@tezzanewton]

For me it’s a toss up between this Hamilton and the Longines Big Eye.

[@louisjohnmanuel3661]

Hamilton is a top 3 brand for me !!! Thanks teddy!

[@melprophet1936]

I have the Intra Matic 68 which is a reverse panda dial. I really enjoy it, except I prefer this panda dial and that it's 40mm. I'm tempted. Really good video Teddy!

[@macfl3594]

WOW!!!!! That speedmaster is so beautiful.I also love this Hamilton

[@Robert35GTR]

Hi Teddy,,, Greeting from Singapore ! Great watch review.I actually saw the actual watch today at the shop and I must say your review on this beauty is spot on. I am considering to own one verity soon. Thanks again for another fantastic video quality > Stay safe !

[@brunonjezic6208]

Nice format of video! It is really enjoyable to watch

[@piotrskoczylas222]

Great music choices for this video Teddy👏

[@TechPanzer]

Favorite entry-level chronograph? Probably the Farer Cobb. I love the design because of how cheerful it is. And the gradient register looks amazing, just like the movement. Very nice finishing for an ETA 2894-2. I would actually buy it if it was a little bit bigger. I have big wrists and anything smaller than 41mm looks weird.

[@mariofalfan2997]

Beautiful looking watch! I own a Tudor Tiger Panda, and I just purchased this watch, gorgeous!

[@thatladudevcast]

I think this Hamilton Chronograph definitely looks better because of the off-white dial. I think that makes it more versatile as opposed to a straight up monochrome dial. As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I dropped what I was doing and watched because this watch is one of my absolute favorites, especially in this price range

[@ClaxtonBay123]

Intramatic vs Sinn 356. That's the comparison video we need

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

That would be fun!

[@arianemeil]

Really beautiful watch (and mechanism), I love Hamilton !! Thanks for this review Teddy, would you please be able to review the new ones that Hamilton just launched with mechanical mouvement ? I would love to buy one for my husband (I am myself a passionate watch lover, and would love to hear about your selection of Automatic watches for ladies !)

[@Jabastroso]

Hi! If you had to choose between this and the Longines Avigator Big Eye, what would your choice be?? I have small wrists, I’ve struggled to adapt to my Propilot Big Crown because of the size. Congratulations for your quality content and thank you.
