Hamiltons are cool. Here are the three in my house: an automatic 42mm khaki field, my wife's 37mm quartz khaki scuba, and my 1909 engineer's pocket watch.

Ya made me want to take more pics. ?? This is my Grandfather's 1972 retirement watch. He was not happy as he thought he got a cheap watch, for being there for 25 years. I don't know what he did with the original band? I put on this Omega band.

This is the mid 1800's pocket watch. It's silver. It was my Grandfathers, who was born in, and from Ireland. The watch is a "fusee", which means it has a small chain inside driving things. There are all kinds of dates scratched inside the case, from all times it was serviced, or repaired. The story was that it was built by a journeyman watchmaker, as his test.
