In my opinion what sets Watchfinder gets so right is how they write/script there videos. Just like the watches they review, WF is as detailed. Keeping the ability to be as precise with words matches perfectly pared to the watches we have grown to love. Keep it up WF. This channel really does celebrate these modern marvels.

What a pleasant surprise seeing the watch you're wearing being reviewed on Watchfinder! makes you appreciate it even more. Great video as always! I've got the leather strap version, first mechanical watch and I'm loving it. I was afraid it would be too big for my small 15.9cm wrist (although my wrist is kinda flat, which helps), but even with its thickness and big lugs, the watch fits surprisingly well. Love the panda color and the classic racing watch look.

I have been looking at a 'Panda' chrono for a while and narrowed it down to the Breitling Top Time, Seiko Speedtimer and the Hamilton Intra-matic.

Thanks WatchFinder for the excellent review, it definitely helped in my decision making 🙂

You can't call this a BUDGET watch in capital letters when it's 2000 pounds. There's literally THOUSANDS of watches that fit the "budget watch" category better. For example, a Lorier Gemini with the Seagull movement has the same panda vibe and amazing build quality for the money, a true vintage inspired manual chrono. What it doesn't have is HERITAGE and a Swiss movement, which this Hamilton absolutely does, hence by definition not being a BUDGET watch. I absolutely love this particular Hamilton, but again, it's NOT a BUDGET watch. It's literally their most expensive watch!

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired It's good to warm my bones beside the fire Far away across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells

This. I do much prefer square pushers, but the outside side combined with large numbers is a bit muddled and the composite symmetry is off due to keeping the chrono dials the same color as the center dial. It just looks to busy, and thus not as dressy as this watch can pull off but also not as simplistic as this watch in symmetrical design and ease of use. The only real issue I have is that I really don’t like how far the pushers stuck out. Also the longines isn’t a real panda dial as the colors are navy and creme instead of creme/white and black. Isn’t a huge deal on the face, but it can cause some issues with your strap options
