FAQs

How do I wind the Hamilton Khaki Field Expedition?

To manually wind the watch, pull the crown out to its closed position and turn it clockwise approximately 30-40 times until you feel resistance. It's best to do this at the same time each day to maintain consistent accuracy.

What is the power reserve of the automatic movement?

The H-10 automatic movement boasts an impressive power reserve of 80 hours, meaning the watch will continue to run for over three days even when not being worn.

Is the compass feature functional or decorative?

The compass is functional and designed for basic solar navigation. It requires understanding how to align the hour hand with the sun to determine direction.

Can I wear this watch for swimming?

Yes, with a 100-meter water resistance rating and a screw-down crown, this watch is suitable for swimming and snorkeling. Ensure the crown is fully tightened before water exposure.

How should I care for the leather strap?

Avoid prolonged immersion in water. Clean with a soft, damp cloth and allow to air dry. For best results, use a leather conditioner periodically and avoid exposing it to extreme heat or humidity.

What is the crystal made of?

The watch is equipped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, offering superior durability and clarity compared to mineral glass.

Does this watch require a battery?

No, this is an automatic watch. It is powered by the movement of your wrist or by manual winding, not by a battery.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running.

Ensure the watch has been wound sufficiently. If it's an automatic, wear it for at least 8 hours a day or manually wind it. If the issue persists, the power reserve may be depleted, and it requires winding.

Timekeeping is inaccurate.

Automatic watches can have slight variations. If inaccuracies are significant (more than +/- 15 seconds per day), the movement may require regulation by a qualified watchmaker.

Date is not changing correctly.

Avoid changing the date when the watch hands are between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. Manually advance the time past midnight if necessary, then set the date correctly.

Condensation under the crystal.

This indicates a potential breach in water resistance. Remove the watch from moist environments immediately and have it inspected by a watchmaker to check seals and gaskets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As an automatic watch, the Hamilton Khaki Field Expedition requires winding to start. Gently turn the crown clockwise (while in its closed position) about 30-40 times until you feel resistance. The watch will then begin to run. For optimal performance, wear the watch daily or store it on a watch winder. The date can be set by pulling the crown out to the first position and turning it.

Compatibility: The watch is fitted with a standard lug width, making it compatible with a wide range of aftermarket leather, NATO, or rubber straps if you wish to change the look or feel.

Care:

Leather Strap: To maintain the leather strap, avoid prolonged exposure to water and extreme humidity. Clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Consider using a leather conditioner periodically.
Water Resistance: While rated at 100 meters, it is recommended to rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly after exposure to salt water or chlorine. Ensure the screw-down crown is tightened to maintain water resistance.
Cleaning: Clean the stainless steel case and sapphire crystal with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
