Hamilton Khaki UTC

This one’s for all you historians out there. Ever crave a spot of time travel back to the 1940’s? Well, if we’re being honest, we can’t quite grant you the luxury of time travel, but we can take you pretty damn close. Or at least Hamilton can.

With their new Khaki UTC, Hamilton uses inspiration garnered from their original 1940’s models, back when the watchmakers were cooking up navigational instruments in the form of marine chronometers. The Khaki UTC is a tribute to the original tools, with GMT function, a throwback to the chronometers and their integrated sidereal time (measured time relative to the motion of the stars around the earth, as opposed to that of the sun). From a yellow “old paper” dial colour, or leather resembling craftsmen aprons of yore, the Khaki UTC takes you back – but with a modern twist.

Allow us to make a few suggestions to set you on the path to full sartorial enlightenment, or at least get you to dinner on time.
