Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical Power ReservevsanOrdain Model 1

The Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical Power Reserve is noted for its 40mm sandblasted case, filling a size gap in the Khaki Field line. It features a new H-23 hand-wound movement with an 80-hour power reserve and a functional power reserve indicator at 9 o'clock. The case is 11.95mm thick, which is described as noticeably thicker than other Khaki Field models, and its proportions differ from classic manual-wind versions. The movement includes a slipping spring to resynchronize the power reserve indicator after shocks. Overall, reviewers appreciate the addition of the power reserve complication to the hand-wound model, though one reviewer noted a preference for a contrasting color on the indicator.

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 for its exquisite, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, custom typeface, and syringe hands, calling it a standout feature. The 36mm steel case is noted as a thoughtful, comfortable complement to the dial, and the smooth winding action of the Sellita SW-210-1 hand-wound movement is appreciated. Some find the 5atm water resistance limiting, and the anti-reflective coating can be prone to glare. The 18mm strap width is also mentioned as potentially limiting for strap enthusiasts. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its stunning enamel dial and elegant, versatile design.
