Talk about having too much time on your hands. :lol:Birdman, you know the CEO of Hamilton's parent company, Nick Hayek wears several watches... on each arm. He's banking on our excitement over the product.:001_smile:

Hammie QNE first impressions......
2
Well.... excellent work y'all that help:wink:the Hammie Corner Forum started..thanks to John for making this happened:cool1:
My Aviation QNE arrived a few days ago... love the watch look/fit/finish ...a big piece , it shows all of those 44mm yet despite that, it is very comfortable to wear...accuracy is a PLUS 2 seconds every 24hour period (as per my atomic clock reference) at par with my Omega Seamaster (Bond GMT), better than my Rolie Sub TT (at 4 seconds plus/day) amazing considering I paid a fraction of the cost of the above named pieces for my Hammie:thumbup1:
I changed the rather utilitarian strap (IMHO) to a genuine tan round alligator piece from the folks at the JRT Exotics Shop, taking advantage of the current deals on straps at one of the 2 Shopping Networks:wink:...
A couple things I would like to see improving :sad:..lume is poor and should be a lot better in a model line intended for pilots,the crown is not a screw down deal ...call me a freak but, I like (used to) the screw down feature in ALL my pieces who are rated at 100m/330f WR (even pilots make emergencies aqualandings sometimes
)
Overall, an awesome piece for the money, exuding quality and good looks...an X-Wing will follow soon
Couple pics for y'all to enjoy...quality...well, lousy as usual:thumbup1:
Happy New Year
