Quartz-powered fripperies for people who wouldn’t think twice about buying a sub-$400 Armani-branded watch, but could never afford an Armani suit.

In my last post, I pronounced the new mechanical Hamilton Khaki Field Expedition over-priced ($1k and up) and unsuitable for its stated case use (outdoor activities).
