Frequently Asked Questions
Are Hamilton watches Swiss made?
Yes. Although Hamilton was originally an American brand, it is now owned by the Swatch Group, and all Hamilton watches, including the Khaki Field line, are Swiss made. They are manufactured in Switzerland and use Swiss movements.
Is the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical hard to wind?
No, the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical is not hard to wind. It has a smooth winding action and requires winding once a day to keep it running optimally. Typically, 20–30 full crown turns are sufficient.
Are Hamilton Khaki Field watches waterproof?
Hamilton Khaki Field watches are water-resistant, not fully waterproof. Most models offer 50 meters (5 ATM) of water resistance, meaning they can handle splashes, rain, and light swimming, but they are not suitable for diving or prolonged submersion.

From durable field watches like the Khaki range to elegant dress models in the Jazzmaster line, these watches balance style with practicality. Many models feature sapphire crystals, water resistance, and robust case materials.
What kind of warranty do Hamilton watches come with?
Hamilton watches typically come with a 2-year international warranty. This covers any manufacturing defects. Registering your watch online may offer access to extended coverage depending on the model and region.
Does Hamilton make its own movements?
