After a week of owning the Hamilton Khaki Pilot Day, I still stay impressed with the general feel and fit of the piece. This watch was handsome right from the box and place a strong first impression. This is my first aviator style watch and also my initial Hamilton. I will try and maintain my observations as objective as you can. My background with Korean watches is rather short… I have one other Swiss automatic, a dim face Victorinox Officer’s Day Date, therefore a few of my observations are located off of my experience with this particular piece, because both of these watches offer comparable features. If I already didn’t own the dark faced Victorinox I would have chosen the dark faced Hamilton with all the steel bracelet… that watch is eloquent!

This past March we showed you a first look at a special limited edition watch from Hamilton called the Hamilton Khaki Takeoff Auto Chrono Limited Edition. This aviation gauge-inspired bullhead chronograph features the ability to be worn as a traditional wrist watch or to be detached from its lugs and strap so it can be mounted in a desktop display case that really completes the cockpit look and feel.

We went hands on at Baselworld, and if you’ve got the wrist for it, the Blancpain women’s watches price Replica Khaki Takeoff LE is a pretty cool and rather distinctive watch. The 46.3 mm wide case is steel with a well-executed black PVD finish and yellow accents. The considerable width is quickly upstaged by the Takeoff’s extreme thickness, which we would wager exceeds 18 mm (sorry, had left my caliper at home).

The thickness is a result of the two-segment case design that allows the puck-like internal case to detach, thanks to a nifty locking system not unlike the ring mounts used on SLR camera systems. While this functionality, along with the included desk display case, is nothing more than a novelty, it is just the right amount of strange for a limited edition piece meant for collectors. That said, this form and function comes with a cost, and the Do blancpain watches hold their value Replica Khaki Takeoff is a compromised design for a day to day watch, due mainly to its increased thickness.

With a dial straight out of the instrument cluster of an airplane, the Hamilton Khaki Takeoff Limited Edition offers a 30 minute chronograph with a central chrono seconds hand and an elapsed minutes display at 12.
