I like it...but think it would look better on a strap rather than bracelet.

I have been looking at Hamiltons in a different light since someone posted up the Pan-Europ version earlier in the week.

Thanks! I'll consider your suggestion, but it must be months later for me to change a new strap since this one still new and well.
What style do you prefer?

Off the top of my head a perforated black leather strap with maybe some red stitching to match the arrow point of the second hand.

Nice piece, but as said far better on a leather strap

I'd love a X-Wind but with the yellowy / creamy coloured face - think it was limited edition.

On brown leather strap

Creation stock them too, for what it's worth.

Great watch OP, I've looked and looked and Hamilton are by far and away the best route into a 7750 Chrono at a very reasonable price.

I suspect Swatch group might have a few too many brands under its wings and pegs Hamilton lower than it'd like too.

I really need a field officer job, maybe next month will be the month a huge bill / repair presents itself ? I've had all wheel bearings done on the car next, I bet the clutch goes now I've typed this ....

Lovely choice, really do like the x-wind. And a further congrats for the bracelet - am just not a strap man (so to speak).
