    I am also a lover of this style timex and can say with confidence you will like a hamilton khaki field to bring this feeling back. Make sure you check the case diameter of this one and look to get a watch that is the same case size. It makes it that much better trust me

      There’s not an off-white Hamilton khaki though, is there? The bright white has a totally different feel to me.

        They made one with a cream dial. Paste this in Google: H70555523. The cream looks much less intense in real shots of the watch

    If you want to go used and quasi-vintage, look at the Eterna Cambridge watches … if you can find one. They seem to have been made in small numbers.

    Otherwise look at the Hamilton Khaki and Aviation series watches (which are currently being produced).

    Hamilton Khaki expedition, or khaki field maybe? Are you looking for mechanical or quartz?

    I was the same as a teenager, love timex. Have a few other watches but wanted one for work that looked good but wouldnt kill me if something happened to it. Found this one and absolutely love it.

      I took that watch through everything! It died well and honorably.

    If you really want to honor that watch, stay with the Timex family.
