HAMILTON – Khaki Navy Scuba Steel



HAMILTONKhaki Navy Scuba Stainless steel

Colorful, functional and offering a stylish approach to adventure, the Khaki Navy Scuba is inspired by last year’s highly successful launch of the Khaki Navy Frogman

Less rugged than the tough model that inspired it, and as perfectly suited to summer days at sea as it is to a day at the office, the sturdy Khaki Navy Scuba offers faultless precision in a range of three colorful, fun variations. Emulating the triangular hour-markers of its stylish predecessor, each combines a fun and youthful diving appearance.

Solid hour markers stand out on a crisp black dial, ensuring easy reading and contributing to the powerful, look of this must-have summer timepiece.

Available in three sizzling options, the Khaki Navy Scuba’s unidirectional rotating bezel is animated with bright orange detail, complemented by a matching second hand and minutes track, and available with stainless steel bracelet or two-tone, “soft feel” NATO strap designed for maximum wearer comfort on the wrist.  Additionally, a full black bezel and dial is also available and be fitted with a triple-row stainless steel bracelet secured by a smart adjustment folding clasp.
