Hey guys, my wife gave me this Hammy Jazzmaster Tonneau for our three year wedding anniversary. As usual, Hamilton has made a real beauty! I love the simple classic look of this watch. It has a cool texture to the dial and the Hamilton font on the numbers is just my style. The size is just right, big, but not too big for a dress watch that will need to occasionally fit under a shirt sleeve.

The movement is beautiful.

This was the most difficult watch I have ever had to photograph. I'll try again later, but here are some quick pics.

Um.. I think I need to have that. Very simple but elegant. My 10 year anniversary is coming up... I should ask.....

Wow, I had forgotten about that model. Very nice... looks like a good replacement for my Epos Tonneau (up for trade if anyone wants it... heh heh).

Good thing you married her, too!

That is the bomb! I love it! I think that will be my next non-vintage Hammy.

Hehe. I like it! It looks kind of like my Maurice Lacroix Pontos Rectangulaire. Very clean look. I think it even has the same calibre ETA movement as my ML.

Very nice watch man. Hope you like it. =)
