Hamilton MIL-W-46374





Standard issue throughout the Vietnam era to American GI's, the Hamilton MIL-W-46374 is a classic military watch with an easy to read 24-hour dial and 17-jewel Swiss movement.
If the face looks familiar, it's probably because it's inspired popular miltary style watches like J.Crew's Timex, and Seiko's SNX425. If you want a proper military issued watch with a bit of history, you can still pick Hamilton MILs up in good condition on eBay for less than £150.

  2. Cool! Great mid-century modern aesthetic. Dig the added Velcro strap!
