Hamilton Khaki Flight Timer Watch
On many occasions I've mentioned that I pretty much only feel comfortable wearing a quartz movement based watch when that movement offers functionality you can't find in a mechanical watch. Analog/digital watches such as this are a prime example. Offering the grace of analog time telling, the dials are enhanced with digital LCD screens that offer lots more functionality - as only an electronic watch can offer.New from Hamilton is this Khaki Flight Timer. Done in collaboration with the Air Zermatt helicopter rescue team in Switzerland, this is their new high-function pilot watch with a Swiss ETA quartz movement. You can see the Air Zermatt logo engraved on the caseback. Functionally this watch should do a lot even though I don't have a full spec sheet. The dial is broken up into a few negative LCD screen sections and the case has a crown along with three pushers. You can still read the time easily enough, and I like the large applied metal minute/hour markers. You'll of course see that

Treated my Seiko Military to a new leather strap...
Been toying with idea of having a leather strap fitted no my new Seiko Military watch. I wanted just the right look and colour that would suit my taste (and go with the watch obviously), but to no avail. So this morning I went to a jewelery store, went through the Hirsch range of leather straps they had, I found two I liked, but they both had polished buckles, which would not go with my watch. So the guy that helped me, disappeared to the back and came back with a buckle that has 99% of the same sand-blasted look than my watch's casing. This suited the one strap very well and I said I'll take it and this is the result - I'm really chuffed with it. The strap is a very dark brown, although it does appear almost black on the photos. Also, I had a rubber gasket fitted to the outside of the casing of the watch - there's like a groove that runs around the perimeter and I think this does add a little something extra to the watch (it's not that easy to see on the photos, but in real life -

Omega 2500 movement issue?
I have a PO with a 2500 and about a month ago it stopped all of the sudden, it;s my daily driver so it was wound.I played with it a while and I could get it to start for a few seconds and then stop again, it was Saturday afternoon so I took it off and decided to take it to Omega on Monday.To my surprise on Sunday afternoon I noticed that it had started back on its own and it hasn't stopped since.Om Friday the same thing happened to a coworker that has a similar watch but he's restarted a few hours later.What gives?
