Hamilton’s expertise in creating aviators’ timepieces since 1919 has grown stronger with each passing year. This mix of a pioneering heritage and technological innovation are prominent on the brand’s radar screen. The Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer Auto Chrono is a glamorous automatic chronograph that accurately reflects the values of freedom, discovery and adventure.
Runways of both types confirm that aviation watches count as treasured equipment and the Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer Auto Chrono is set to skillfully copilot men of style and action. In both design and functionality, the Hamilton Khaki Pilot Auto Chrono dedicates all of its power to uniting the aspirational quality associated with flight, one of man’s oldest dreams, with down-to-earth reliability and robustness. Inspired by Hamilton timepieces created in the 1970s for the British Royal Air Force, the design team chose clean styling to showcase the watch’s appealing materials and easy-to-use timekeeping competence.
The numbers on the dial are bold to facilitate fast easy reading, and Super-LumiNova® hour indices help in the dark. They are white on the rugged black dial and black against the alternative ivory-colored background. Sandblasted elements on the case remain true to the pioneering aviation roots of the design, protecting the wearer against distracting reflected sunlight, inside and outside the cockpit environment. A variety of style statements for today’s action lovers get clearance for take-off from a wide choice of attachments, embracing stainless steel, black leather and a selection of textile straps, including a very appropriate military kaki option.
The Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer Auto Chrono is powered by the H-31 movement. Stemming from the Valjoux 7753, this offers optimal accuracy, stability and power reserve, and can be seen in its full beauty through the open case-back. An elegant asymmetrical case integrates a protected crown and pushers.
This aviation timepiece is ready for take-off from both types of runway, whether its owner requires reliable timekeeping in the sky, or a complement to trendy bomber jackets, pilots’ eyewear and military details. The sky is the limit on both counts.
