Aviation

Hamilton is an American watch manufacturer and accordingly its watch models always bear English names. The word Aviation reminds us that a Hamilton Khaki Aviation is a robust watch designed specifically for pilots. Thus, most models from this noble collection have special functions tailored specifically for aviation, such as a function for crosswind calculation or also the possibility to display two different time zones. So you can always keep an eye on the time at your departure airport as well as at your destination airport - or even check what time it is at home at any time if you want to call your family from a distant country.

Not in khaki

The word Khaki in the name of the Hamilton Khaki Aviation collection may surprise some German viewers after looking at the pictures of the watches because the watches are by no means all designed in the color khaki. However, this is also explained by the origin from the English-speaking world. Khaki is a good camouflage color and is therefore often used for uniforms of armies around the world. Thus, it has become common in English to also refer to the uniforms themselves as khakis. The word khaki in Hamilton Khaki Aviation therefore stands for the military deployment tradition of the watches and is meant to remind us of their particularly great robustness.
