Mesquite Block M-1148 2" x 2" x 25" 3.3 lbs. This is a hefty 2" x 2" Mesquite spindle. The overall color is the warm reddish brown of Mesquite heartwood. We've cut a number of these spindles, and the grain pattern and characteristics vary from piece to piece. We take photos of each individual piece, so please look carefully to inspect the piece you are choosing. Mesquite characteristically has wavy grain with occasional knots. Some of these pieces will have cracks, either ones that formed during growth (age-blackened) or during processing -- you can treat these with CA glue or fill with epoxy. Or you can cross-cut the spindles to avoid them entirely. There are also patches of bark and wane on some of these spindles, so please review to make sure you are OK with any complexity. The bark is beautiful and can be preserved in the finished turning, if you wish -- best to secure it with CA glue. Some of these pieces have scuff marks from our sawblades or a bit of surface discoloration (Anchor Seal) that will sand or turn off as you work the piece. This is a GREEN to partially air-dried blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree. It has been well-sealed with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying. It was heat-treated to kill off any hungry critters that may have been burrowing inside. It was measured at 25% MC in May 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you. We take more than 3 photos of each piece, so please scroll down through the pictures to see all of them. You can enlarge and zoom in on these photos, if you'd like to really see the grain. Mesquite is beautiful wood, and we are sure you will enjoy it! About the Tree This Texas-grown Honey Mesquite tree was harvested in El Campo, Texas in March of 2022. It was cut down by the city for reasons unknown to us, and we were happy to help save the tree from a burn pile. It is possible that this tree was damaged by the Valentine's Day Freeze that Texas suffered in February 2021, which is when our state lost a lot of beautiful trees in an unusually deep and long freeze. You can feel good about this American-grown hardwood being responsibly harvested and turned into beautiful art by YOU. The tree was in healthy growing condition, with a minimum of bug damage and a nice healthy girth to the trunk. There is some minor evidence of fire damage, perhaps from a campfire, near the base of the tree on one side. It may have been in a fairly protected area such as a city park, as the Mesquite is less twisted and gnarly than trees grown in open pastures. The grain looks generally long and straight and of excellent quality for green or dried turning. |

A great everyday companion.
Overall this is a great watch for the price. Swiss Made and the right size for a larger dial vs. others in the class. The dial color is more gray than black which was a plus for me as I was looking for a gray dial. I switched out the band for a black field band bought on Hamilton’s website. I am very happy with the results!

The Perfect Everyday Watch
This hands down is the best everyday watch. I have a large wrist so the 42mm works perfectly for me. The all brushed titanium looks great. The subdued look and clear dial just only make it better. I didnt want to believe the Hamilton hype but I have to say that Hamilton makes a great solid watch.
If you are looking for the everyday watch that just feels right, is solid, and works, look no further. I am sure the standard version is just as good also.
ALSO, the dial is not black black. It is slightly a grayish tone. At first I hated this detail but after looking at it, it just looks so good.

Hamilton titanium is worse than mediocre
Where can I start with how bad this watch is? (1) the movement is a derated movement with a low beat rate. This means the seconds hand visibly clicks almost like a quartz watch. (2) the beautiful dial is rarely seen because there is no anti-reflective coating. Instead, you see overhead lighting when you check your watch. (3) the watch is already oversized, but the excessive lug-to-lug length makes this look like a clown watch. Make sure your wrist is 8" or more for this watch. (4) it's dainty for a field watch. The push-down crown easily pops out, making rain or sweat a real watch killer. It's also gets scratched at the slightest touch. (5) the superluminova on the hands and face is so thin that it is worthless. (6) When I say Seiko and Timex make better automatic watches, I don't mean "better value" or "better for the money." I mean that Seiko and Timex have better movements, better styling, better wearability, better durabity, better visability... all around better. The Hamiltons released with the low-beat H-10 are bringing shame to the one-respected Hamilton brand.
