How to replace the strap on your Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic Watch

[@jeffl4896]

Great vid Ty! I just changed my first watch strap on my khaki field with help from your great vid!

[@ninonanu1]

Can you change from a leather strap to a metal strap and vice versa??? On the Hamilton jazzmaster for ex.

[@vintageradar]

Yes as long as you have one that fits. Some people buy them on their original bracelets and then switch to leather or NATO while keeping the steel on.

[@poleposition1980]

why not putting the leather strap back from the backside of the watch, so you don't scratch the lugs?

[@vintageradar]

Did not scratch them either way.

i recently lost the spring bar itself when trying to chasnge out the nato strap. does anyone know what size it is?

[@vintageradar]

Order a box of spring bars and you should not worry about that again: amzn.to/3zCBlvL

Thanks for the tutorial, I would probably have broken my watch if it wasn’t for you 👍🏼😺

3:00 OMG. If you like to have scratches on the lugs go for it :-)

[@vintageradar]

Did not scratch mine.

NATO straps have a purpose and they’re functional but style definitely isnt one of their purposes. Not only are the straps flimsy and cheap feeling they’re ugly on the wrist too. Very good tutorial though, for someone who has never changed out a watch strap before this video would be an excellent source for them.

Thank you for the comment. I prefer the nato strap for this exact model as it gives it a different style and vibe (a more military one). I switch back to leather when I want to be more elegant.
