I have always liked the Hamilton Khaki designs but the bezel and onion crown on that one don't work for me.
I am also not a fan of any digital.
That being said if you like them that is all that matters.
I spent 5 years searching for a good deal on a watch I saw reviewed in a Watchtime annual once (300 made). Once I actually found one it I didn't wear it. I always regretting selling it when I came across one for sale last month right after finding my GS GMT grail. Once I got it I think I have worn it 4 times.
The true thrill is in the hunt.
Very few watches will ever fulfill every requirement that you seek in the perfect watch and will be affordable enogh that you will actually wear it to finalize the quest.

I like that Hamilton a lot on the bracelet you show. Onion crown and bezel texturing define its personality. It is cool!

Congrats on getting an old favorite back into your collection. I've always had a liking for the Hamilton Khaki. Seiko Aliens is cool!

21mm straps are an oddity to be sure but there are plenty of adaptable options if you can't get an oem Hamilton. I would think the bracelet is the harder get.

I agree....and I can usually make a 22mm strap work just fine. Actually I have a dark brown Di Modell Chronissimo in 22mm that might look great on it.

I am not a onion crown and coin edge bezel person but that watch looks great with those features. Congrats on it.
