WHY I OFTEN DON'T MENTION OTHER BRANDS IN MY VIDEOS.
You may have noticed that I often don't mention the original brands that watches I am reviewing pay homage to. This is very intentional and not meant to offend you or the original brands. I lost my first channel in October 2020 which I had spent 9 months growing and invested a significant amount of money in simply because I had mentioned the original brands in some of my videos. There are people who try to use RU-vids lack of understanding when it comes to the difference between homage watches and fake watches to attack other channels and their owners and sadly I fell foul of this in 2020. This channel was also attacked recently and RU-vid deleted content simply because I had said 'subby homage' and 'Rolex homage' in two videos despite the watches in the videos being perfectly legal homage watches. Please understand that I can not afford to risk my channel so I will no longer be mentioning other brands when reviewing homage watches.

I know its a bit on the pricey side but such a beautiful classic look. I expect this style willl still look good in years to come even if the back story gets forgotten.

@ahonaotokodesu7719 6 месяцев назад

I hope it will because I've invested in one already.

@Tickerman Год назад

This watch is simply a classic. Beautiful, timeless. The hands are perfect. To those saying it’s too expensive, this watch has a highly accurate, quality Swiss movement, underside AR coating, 100m of water resistance and an antimagnetic Nivachron balance spring. Plus the movie connection. It’s a great overall package.

@caramel109 Год назад

The watch in Interstellar never had the morse code dots, so in a way this 38mm version is closer to the movie watch.

@egidiomezzo7643 5 месяцев назад

Definitely, I also prefer no nonsense to it.

@callmeruberto 25 дней назад

I completely agree

@bogrot69 Год назад

I picked up my Murph a month or so after release and the shop, here in Canada, had one left with the limited collectors box. It's an impressive thing as far as boxes go 😁made from different colored layers of perspex. It was supposedly co-designed by Nathan Crowley, the production designer for the film. You could probably use it to defend yourself against an intruder as it weighs as much as a brick. I do love the watch. The 80 hour power reserve is handy, it has a vintage aesthetic that I really like and there is a bracelet available from Hamilton that was made for a different Khaki model which uses the same case as the Murph.

@johnfranklin6394 Год назад

I think the design is based on the Tesseract in the movie. My brother lead the VFX team on Interstellar. Monstrous amount of work went into the Tesseract!

@bogrot69 Год назад

@@johnfranklin6394 You are correct. They did an amazing job with that.

@edteach3r Год назад

Exactly my situation here in Vancouver 🇨🇦. I pre-ordered the watch with the tesseract box as soon as it was announced (I am a HUGE fan of the movie) and own the Coop also. I tried the new 38mm on and it is a stunning watch. I actually prefer the original Murph to the Smurph (I have a 7.5” wrist) and the closer relationship to the film is a must for me.

@davidcrandall4958 Год назад

One story is the watch was that size in the movie to Accommodate it's function as a prop,and that size was carried over to what is now Murph number 0ne! Another is the original case is from A modified Pioneer Model which was not selling!

Such a classic piece. Love the long seconds hand, domed feel of the entire dial and perfect proportioned indices.

@JustAnotherDayInEngland Год назад

People need not complain about the price. When you buy Hamiltons you know you're getting quality and you're also buying into the wide film heritage they have. Indiana Jones, Men in Black, Oppenheimer, Intersteller ect..... I just bought the 38. Can't wait to enjoy it for the many years ahead.

@shanephillips8735 Год назад

Awesome looking watch! I know a lot of people think it's too expensive for a simple three handed watch, but there are plenty of simple three handed watches that are way, way more expensive. I bet it will hold its value on the second hand market as well. Imo anything under 1k is considered affordable in the hierarchy of watches, so it's whether the watch speaks to you enough to want to spend that amount of money. Personally I think all of the other 38mm khaki dials look too busy and the lug length is too long. The design of this watch is on point. Apart from the strap, that can get in the bin.

@JohnnyTaxonomy 10 месяцев назад

You read my mind. My thoughts almost exactly.

@Shri_V Год назад

Get the Cooper, I have it and love it.

@ocb05 Год назад

I snagged one upon launch. Believe me Despite it has the same dimension, same movement as the khaki field auto 38mm, This watch wears and feels different totally. For those who keep comparing this to the normal auto 38mm, please don't and move on and get your khaki field auto 38mm, because you just need a field watch from Hamilton, thats all. You had no idea. This watch is designed for the INTERSTELLAR movie, and improved into 38mm. This watch plays a big role in this movie. This watch cements the movie, not popularised by the movie.

@TheFranticgamer Год назад

I love interstellar and Hamilton so it would be a keeper to me.

@scanspeak00 Год назад

Totally agree about it being a very pretty and classy watch. My only complaints having purchased mine a few months ago is the apparent lack of AR coating and the plasticky feel of the strap. I'd rather not replace the strap unless its with one that looks the same as it is a tribute to the movie.

@dirkbraun32 Год назад

Thank you very much for your recommendation. I have already ordered the watch from F&J and saved almost 190EUR in comparison to the German seller prices. A big thank you again!!! 🤑

@normang663 11 месяцев назад

Got mine last week. Hamilton is growing on me. Got my eyes on the jazzmaster performer 38mm next. Also, the shine on the leather strap will slightly go away, so that’s a positive i guess for you and I at least. Nice video!

@piquetuk Год назад

I've just bought the Ironwatch 38mm Murph homage partly because the Hammy was 42mm, mostly because of cost. Interestingly it was stuck in Chinese customs for 10 days because of an "intellectual property rights problem" not sure what that was about, it's nearly here now, all this 38mm Murph talk has me excited.

@jjakiefte2165 Год назад

Ironwatch murph homage? Ah, I see... yes...at €114 now.

@jimg8887 Год назад

@jja kiefte steeldive makes one too. The steeldive is closer to the murph but doesn't have the faux patina

@stevendavid7483 Год назад

Yeah I agree if it wasn’t for the movie this piece would not have commanded such a hostile price, I like the watch and still might get one, will see what sort of discounts come off for Christmas

@mclaughlinja1995 Год назад

I ordered this watch about 3 days ago … it hasn’t arrived yet, but I already know I’ll wear it on a different strap. I like everything else about it though.

@martinowl Год назад

As said in a previous comment looks good, nicer than the khaki field, dial not as cluttered, but with the same movement, way over priced. Probably why already being discounted?

@johnbuckmaster569 Год назад

I did not realize they came out with that one in a 38 mm. Love the watch, However, I consider the Khaki King (On bracelet) To be their best field watch and it’s my personal favorite in my collection(I have at least half a dozen field watches)… it has all the same specifications and could be had for a little over $400 US when on sale.

@leath25 Год назад

I still prefer the hamilton mechanical khaki with the sand strap and almost half the price.its on my wish list maybe my next grail watch.

@simonhodgetts6530 Год назад

Hamilton make some great watches - well built, decent movements and reasonably priced. I bought my Khaki Mechanical 10 years ago, and it’s built like a tank! Lovely watch.

@maxcontax 5 месяцев назад

I have a Jazzmmaster chrono Special Edition for dress, a Navy Pioneer with big sweep hand for sailing, a d a classic KhakiField that I wear mostly. Three Hamiltons. They are all classy and keep good time. They all have faces that you can get the time at a glance. What more are you looking for, no battery, do not fog up- waterproof, rugged,, good looking.

@karlsenula9495 Год назад

Hamilton Khaki King is on my wish list with Christmas money this year - I have a specific type in mind so if it isn't available I have backups of other watches on a revised list (Boldr Venture Carbon and Seiko Pressge Cocktail time).

Very nice looking watch, I have an old Khaki Field mechanical (with the ETA mov and no patina lume) that was my father's and i love it, Hamilton designs are timeless! I'd love one of these one day or the Khaki Field automatic if they ever make it in 38mm

They do make the Khaki Field auto in 38mm. In fact, it's the most popular size and I just got one. Nice watch!

@wafarris Год назад

Beautiful watch and a great size. My Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic 38mm is easily one of my top 3 watches. Incredibly accurate too. Mine is off by only a second or so a day. If you want to attract some new viewers, I´d suggest putting the name and size of the watch in the title. I get the feeling that lots of people are searching for reviews of this watch. Edit: I see now that it is in the video describtion. Maybe that is good enough to show up in the search results.

@johnfranklin6394 Год назад

It's a gorgeous watch, and 38mm is spot on for me. However, I already have the Khaki Field Automatic 38mm, which I got used in pristine condition for less than half the price of the Murph, and I got it on the bracelet. So, I won't be getting the Murph, unless one appears at a massive discount on the used market in a few months maybe.

@craigsphotography46 Год назад

Love a Hamilton, keep it! I have a PSR green display and just got a khaki navy on black Friday. Maybe a khaki field titanium next 😁

@peakrider4886 Год назад

Hi Gary. Thanks for the review. I have the other Interstellar watch, the ‘Cooper’. I would seriously consider getting this as well to create the pair. Hamilton do some great watches and I’ve loved mine for almost a year. Great design, good build and quality, runs within COSC parameters, and there’s nothing else out there like the Khaki Aviation Pilot Day Date. Negatives, Hamilton just don’t seem to ever use enough lume but it’s common across most of their watches. I’d be interested in you reviewing one of their divers though, maybe the Khaki Navy?

@tkindschi Год назад

I appreciate a good Hamilton field watch! But honestly, their regular offerings, at lower price, are more appealing to me. (Never saw the movie, and I'm not sure a movie reference is a selling point for me anyway!)

@johnfranklin6394 Год назад

I have the Khaki Field Automatic 38mm, and it cost me less than half what this Murph costs. Plus, it has a date complication. So, I won't be getting the Murph. As for the movie, Interstellar, I recommend it to watch fans as the watches (the Murph and the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Pilot Day Date) play a key role in the plot. They are not just there on the actors' wrists for no reason other than product placement. I have to declare a personal interest here as my brother was the VFX lead on the movie 🙂

I have the Hamilton H7003050, which is the best mechanical timepiece in terms of accuracy I've ever owned (my first ever watch, a Cyma watersport from 1965 being second best and still going strong). I love the Murph's design and the fact that it has the powermatic movement, which is consistently accurate. I'm tempted but can't really afford it - yet!

@TheRomeogigli 9 месяцев назад

I bought 2 days ago the 42mm, and apparently they had the newer version with a super shiny leather strap.. almost like lacquer shoes.. a bit too posh on a classic case.. I took the last model they still had in a more matter version leather.. also the finishing of the new one looks less than the previous.. and the engraving in the back as well as on the watch ! very strange.. But overall, idd. a very nice finished watch which looks nice from every angle, and I really like the vintage yellow faded luminoscence on the dial as well as the hands.. for the price it's top notch, certainly in the retail shop in Bangkok where I bought it, I got around 30% in total discounted from Central shopping mall.. watches are cheaper in Asia nowadays as in Europe..

@khronokraze Год назад

I like it and glad they finally made a smaller version of this design. The hype for this watch died a long time ago for me. though I'm still sort of interested, I'd wait till they hit gray market or get some discount which they will inevitably get.. I say less close to around -$200 of what they retail for now would seem decent.. because this is essentially like their other khaki automatics, except for the specific aesthetics, I feel if it was priced closer to those which hover around $500 more or less, it seems like a more appropriate price point.

I recently purchased my first Hamilton a Boulton to be exact and I have genuinely got to say that the quality is very good and the leather strap is a standout it's a cracking matt blue and one of the most comfortable leather straps that I have and it really sets off the blue dial perfectly and fantastic value at around £900 I also have a deployment clasp which is extra cost but well worth it and it's the older style of clasp which is the best if you can get one but the newer clasp is not as good it feels flimsy compared to the older one. The watch is manual wind but with the 80 hours power reserve it's not a problem and it keeps the watch under 11mm Hamilton say that it's 11mm but I measure it as 10.7mm, it's just a beautiful watch and very comfortable on the wrist.
