I’ve owned both of these and they both are great but have some drawbacks. The Seiko weighs double what the Hamilton weighs (and like four times the weight on the metal bracelet!) I loved it on the bracelet but found it too too too heavy on most other straps. I love dive watches though so I would lean that way.
I never trusted the Hamilton to get wet, I read some other people’s horror stories about water and it always scared me. But I swim with watches on and prefer a screw down crown for peace of mind. That being said, there’s just something about a Hamilton Khaki! They have that “it” factor. If you don’t care about water resistance and want something that’s always comfortable and looks great on multiple straps, it’s a winner!
