I've been wearing since 1991 an LL Bean Hamilton Automatic with a date. Its 36mm. The movement is an ETA 2824-2 17 jewel automatic movement. It has the arrow at the top of the dial and 24 hour markers and the railroad track minute marker. This watch has been my workhorse ever since I ordered out of the LL Bean catalog ...its been on my wrist for over 30 years. I have many stunning vintage watches but this is the one I wear everyday. I feel funny with out it. Other than a few scuffs on the mineral crystal it looks new. As a matter of fact it was an anniversary present from my wife in 1991, so my anniversary present last year was having it serviced. I wear it on a black leather strap. It looks perfect no how dressed up or down I am. I really enjoyed your video. Thank you.

Let's have a 36mm Hammilton Field Watch. And don't charge us a Tesla per copy! If that means an ETA 2801-2, I'm fine with it.

I agree. 36mm is a good size. And I wish Hamilton wouldn’t put that awful “Khaki” logo their nice watches.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Oddly, I don't mind the Khaki logo, but it can make the dial get a bit crowded, especially with the second ring of 24 hour numbers.
