Hamilton Pan Europ Day Date Auto Watch Review, an American Classic according to Hamilton

[@MrPleers]

I bought that one 5 months ago. And it has been on my wrist every day ever since. Outside in the sun, the sunburst effect on that deep blue dial never fails to bring a smile on my face.

[@OntheWrist]

It’s a real beauty. Glad you are getting so much enjoyment out of it! Do you wear it on the rally strap or the nato?

[@MrPleers]

@@OntheWrist The rally strap.

[@OntheWrist]

Nice. That is my favorite by far. Really comfortable and quite the looker too.

[@johnchambers7948]

Absolutely love the shade of blue.

[@gregalonzo747]

Best looking Hamilton I have seen in a while. 👍

[@OntheWrist]

They really hit the nail on the head with this one. There is also a grey dial and a green dial, but I think the blue is the best by far.

[@gregalonzo747]

@@OntheWrist, blue also for me.

[@MrPleers]

Agreed 100%

Nice review and good shots. One correction from my side: Hamilton uses ETA C07.611 caliber instead of C07.111. At least on my Khaki Auto and Pan-europ. As ı searched thruogh web, the differences are defined in as below. C07.1XX; these have a synthetic escapement. C07.6XX; these have a regular (metal) escapement. C07.8XX; these have a silicon hair spring.

Such a beautiful watch, I believe I will buy one in the next few days. Maybe water resistance should be at least 100m, but the main problem for me is not being able to regulate it myself.

Absolutely love mine, it's so comfortable. The blue dial is fab and the power reserve is great. I know the bezel is a bugger to turn, but who uses their bezels? Completely agree re strap changing, so I have kept mine on the NATO. This one will stay in my collection. A fantastic summer watch.

Is it possible to put a beads of rice metal strap on this watch?

[@OntheWrist]

A great question, unfortunately I do not know. The fact that there is a curved spring bar with a really tight tolerance to the case makes me think that the answer is no. There really isn't much space for any type of strap other than leather or the nato since it can be compressed. If anyone else has a different experience please comment below!

Great review sir, and very cool watch. Thank you!

[@OntheWrist]

Thank you very much!!!!

Do you reccomend any Vibrating Alarm watches? An idea for a new video....hope you are doing well my friend! 😀

[@OntheWrist]

I do not know of any mechanical watches that vibrate like that, but there are some mechanical watches that will chime. Those are called "repeaters" and they chime at the hour. That could be interesting to find a quartz watch (like a Casio or something) that can do that. I wonder if any non-smart watches do that... Interesting idea! I'm doing well :) I hope you are too!
