Their main differences are case material, lume color, and supplied strap. The prices reported at launch were €625 for each steel version and €965 for the bronze version; those June 2024 figures are not confirmed current prices.
How the three colorways differ
| Reference | Case and dial | Markers and lume | Supplied strap | Reported launch price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| H69439910 | Sandblasted stainless steel, white dial | Black numerals and hands; green Super-LumiNova | Black textile NATO | €625, reported by Fratello Watches on June 18, 2024; current price not verified |
| H69439940 | Sandblasted stainless steel, blue dial | White dial markings and hands; beige Super-LumiNova | Blue textile NATO | €625, reported by Fratello Watches on June 18, 2024; current price not verified |
| H69459510 | Bronze case, white dial | Black numerals; beige Super-LumiNova | Matte brown calf-leather NATO | €965, reported by Fratello Watches on June 18, 2024; current price not verified |
The steel white-dial H69439910 has the sharpest contrast in its lume treatment: green luminous material against black numerals and hands. The blue H69439940 coordinates its dial and textile strap, while beige lume gives it a warmer, more vintage-leaning look. The bronze H69459510 combines a white dial and beige lume with a brown leather NATO strap; the case material is its most obvious distinction from the two steel references.
Fratello author Jorg Weppelink described the additions as honoring the watch’s military style, writing, “I want to see variations that honor the military style of this iconic watch, which is exactly what the brand has delivered.” That is his assessment, not a statement from Hamilton.

The supplied straps are reported as 20mm wide, but that measurement alone does not establish that any particular replacement strap will fit or clear the case. Confirm the exact reference, strap attachment, length, and clearance before ordering an aftermarket strap. Hamilton’s official product pages identified in the launch coverage confirm the two steel references as Khaki Field Mechanical products; check Hamilton or an authorized retailer for the bronze model’s current listing and availability.
