With a technical look and automatic windage that suits even urban pilots, it's the perfect "copilot" for everyday carry. The Hamilton Khaki Aviation X-Wind Auto Chrono H77616533 will particularly appeal to aviation style enthusiasts. The Khaki Aviation collection is designed with pilots in mind and built for a life of adventure.
A Hamilton H-21 Swiss mechanical movement (based on the ETA/Valjoux 7750) with automatic winding ticks reliably in the case. It operates at a frequency of 28,800 semi-frequencies per hour, has 25 jewels and, most importantly, an extended power reserve of 60 hours. The machine also has a "hacking" function (stopping the second hand when ordered) and the possibility of manual crown winding.
The steel case of the watch is followed by a well-crafted leather strap with a silver thorn H buckle. The model stands out for its excellent legibility and easy clarity, which is required for aviation watches. The universal black dial is protected by a sapphire crystal.
The sapphire crystal is a great advantage in watches as it is almost impossible to scratch. The hands and indices are coated with Superluminova luminescent compound, which guarantees longer luminosity and better legibility even in low light conditions. The 44 mm case diameter makes the model one of the larger men's watches.
The water resistance of the watch is 100 m (10 ATM), so it can handle even greater contact with water, such as swimming. The water resistance is supported by a screw-down crown.
