I purchased two Hamilton Khaki Field Automatics. One has a tan leather band, with a slightly larger and elegant black face; the other one has a very dark brown (maybe even black?) band, with a smaller and more simple black face compared to the tan band version. I have never had a watch with automatic movement - guess I was too cheap before?! - so I was a bit surprised when I pulled the tan band watch to wear out to dinner last night...and it was dead! Had to set the time again and gave it some natural movement and all was good. I'm assuming you can't "wind" these things?...it's only natural movement that makes them tick?

Anyway, I like these things so much that I think I'd wear them even if they DIDN'T tell proper time.
