Hamilton introduces four new incredible styles for the Khaki Navy Frogman Auto, the precision instrument for underwater explorers.
The Khaki collections reflects Hamilton’s history of working with the military and how the watchmaker has smoothly transitioned into making watches that are robust, rugged and resilient enough for the wild outdoors. The Khaki Navy Frogman is one of Hamilton’s most technically capable maritime-ready watches. This is ultra-modern adventure watch has a distinguished past. Named after the fearless US Navy Frogmen who wore the original during World War II, the new models maintain that brave dedication to exploring the unknown, with contemporized style and technology.
With ocean explorers in mind, Hamilton leads with a stainless steel case measuring a grand 46mm on the wrist, extending around the winding crown and housing it securely. Functionality is key with this timepiece. The black, clear-cut dial is enhanced with Super-LumiNova® for low-light legibility when diving, and for additional contrast, orange has been used to highlight the nickeled minute hand and tip of the seconds hand.
For a stealthier, more modern look, feast your eyes on the blacked-out Khaki Navy Frogman. The case is coated in black PVD and is teamed with a grey bezel and dial markings.
Within the Khaki Navy Frogman beats the H-10 automatic movement. Hamilton delivers a durable timepiece whereby the mechanics of the movement allow for extreme precision and reliability. Its exceptional balance spring made from Nivachron™ delivers enhanced performance. The cutting-edge alloy provides resistance to shocks, temperature variations and magnetic fields, adding crucial utility to a watch built to withstand harsh environments. What’s more, the H-10 offers an extended power reserve of 80 hours! Now here’s a timepiece engineered for accuracy, stability and endurance.
The intrepid new look for the Khaki Navy Frogman Auto extends through to the band. The waved rubber strap (available in khaki or black) pays homage to the unparalleled power of the sea. It’s the perfect wrist companion for those who feel completely at home in the deep, whether at sea (the new Khaki Navy Frogman Auto is water resistant to 30 bar / 300 metres) or exploring nature’s other wonders.
There are four styles in the collection to choose from, featuring a black dial, black or grey bezel, rubber strap or stainless steel bracelet and a stainless steel case with the option of black PVD coating. All are protected with sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating.
Hamilton’s new Khaki Navy Frogman Auto timepieces are guaranteed to make a splash in the style stakes and outshine when it comes to performance. They’re not just built for underwater adventures; they’re built to last.
Prices start from $1195 USD, going up to $1295 USD for the Black PVD Coated version.

Velcro watch straps with covers were common.
If Hami didn't put a budweiser on the watch anyway and Frogman is just its name, Kudos to them.
Even JLC whom I love as a company has some 24 year old video gamer designing their dive watches....morons....does no one at that company even dive????
But I digress.
It seems to me a decent watch at an affordable price. And yes lots of Military divers do still wear mech watches.
The blacked out version is just silly from a tool watch perspective.
Reminds me of the stupidest car trend I have seen, you all know what I am about to say, right?
Blacked out tail light lenses!
Almost smashed a little nissan p/u the other day because I thought his break lights were running lights!
But I digress....
Yup. 'Sorta like those vehicles with factory-blacked out badges and chrome; 'reminds me of the Pennsylvania Dutch, who paint over the chrome on their vehicles (yeah, they do have cars'n'trucks, not just horse-drawn vehicles).

Great watches. This Ref H774450 Khaki Field Titanium Navy Frogman was the first auto I ever bought. Ran great, +/- 1 second a day. The canteen cover was cool too, although the stem underneath was pretty tiny.

Item code: 73696 The watch strap feeds through the holes in the cover to keep it secure. Closes with a press stud. Hides and protects watches. Perfect for military ops, work, surveillance, security.
Not my cup of tea; it's a little too, shall we say, stylish to be considered a military-type watch, IMO. OTOH, their Khaki field watch, which imitates the look of the Vietnam-era military-issue watches, looks perfect to me. This diver's model does seem to be capable enough for military use, though.
Now, the all-black dial/hands version takes stealth too far. The watch should be easy to read under combat conditions, which is why military dials use white hands/nos. on black backgrounds, yielding the maximum contrast. If this watch gets muddy, which it will in the field, you'd never be able to read it.
But when you're "in the rear, with the gear," it would be perfect for what we Marines used to call "Remington Raiders" (after the old Remington typewriters). The Army calls them "chairborne commandos."
Sorry, I should proof read my posts better before hitting send, I was dictating to the phone while driving. It gets all kinds of stuff wrong.
But if I HAD hit that low rider would not then it be okay to call them break lights?

I quite like the watch as I think it looks nice. However, the biggest problem for me is the type of bezel used. I have had poor experience with the relief type of numbers used as they look crappy when it gets scratches or dings. Smooth bezel works best in this instance.
When are people going to realize that military divers solve the problem of "stealthing" their watches by placing a cover over them, not by blacking out the features on the watch itself?
Really? I have never read this or seen a photo of a stealth cover with the Mil divers I know:
Hamilton's 1950's US Navy Buships
British Navy/SBS Mil Sub, or Mil CWC 300 or Tudor Milsub,
IDF's Shayetet's Kontiki Super
Marine Nationale's 1970's Tudor or 1980's TAG or Beuchat
Russian Special forces Zlatoust diver
Italian military Navy Panerai
