Hamilton has re -proposed his legendary underwater watch Khaki Navy Frogman in a renewed version that combines a tactic aesthetic with greater readability.
Hamilton has its brutal elegance Frogman of the Cachi Navy He embellished the clock with a touch of light: the new black PVD version (Ref. H77855330) is equipped with Bianca Super-Luminova, which finally allows you to read it even when you are not in the instagram spotlight.
When the night looks back
Again that moment when you say to yourself: “Uffa, that black watch is dangerously beautiful”. And then … you find yourself underwater, in a cave or simply in a scarcely illuminated bar and you can’t see if it is 18:47 or 3:15 in the morning. Hamiltonthe old cat of military watches has finally solved the problem. The Khaki Navy Frogman, one of the toughest underwater watches on the market, now does not seem only worn by an officer of the special forces on a secret mission: now you can also read the name.
A watch that survived the war. Literally.
Hamilton is certainly not new when it comes to resistant watches. In 1943, their watches were worn by those boys from the United States Navy who demolished the enemy coastal fortifications before even the Seal were born. And when these guys said that one thing worked, it worked.
With the new version of Frogman, Hamilton shows that it is possible to modernize without selling the soul. Metal body? It remains of steel. Measure? Another muscular 46 mm. And the design? Hellish darkness, with the right amount of light.
Light in the dark: luminescent update
The Nova Frogman model is equipped with hands and indices covered in white super-luminova. And even if it might seem that it was “glued with a white marker”, it is actually a refreshing contrast with the black Pvd case. The orange and gray hands add a touch of spectacular Bichomia that says: “I am not here for fashion. But if I were, I would be the cutest in the room”.
Another good move? It still has a black diving bezel with unidirectional rotation, because even darkness needs its discipline.
Inside: a record that does not die
Under the hood? The Hamilton H-10 caliber, derived from the legendary Powermatic 80. This means 80 hours of charge reserve. This means that you can remove the clock on Friday afternoon and put it back on Monday: it will still be precise. Because real warriors do not load watches. They wear them. Or they leave them on the bedside table next to a Glock and a pencil.
The Nivachron spring protects from magnetic fields, which means that your watch will not go crazy if you pass near an speaker or a X -ray device.
