Hamilton Khaki Field Auto Chrono
Tom Clancy’s legendary character, Jack Ryan, has returned for a new series streaming on Amazon Prime, and on the wrist of the CIA analyst who dutifully serves his country is the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto Chrono in full black.

The trusty timepiece draws on Hamilton’s rich military history for a rugged and robust chronograph offering 60 hours of power reserve. The 42mm stainless steel case is PVD-coated in full black, and the sporty black rubber strap offers comfort in a snug and secure fit.

Luckily, the watch is available to both intelligence officers and regular Joes alike.

Fresh Deals

Seavees-Huckberry-Deal-Gear-Patrol-Lead-Full

SeaVees Sneakers and Slip Ons
Save up to 54%: You might not know it, but SeaVees is a sneaker OG. It’s been around since 1964 when it was created by the tire company BF Goodrich, which was looking for something productive to do with all of its excess rubber. PF Flyers was another shoe brand in its portfolio, as was Jack Purcell (now owned by Converse). All specialized in vulcanized rubber soles, but unlike those companies, SeaVees remained relatively in the background until Steven Tiller and Derek Galkin stumbled across a vintage pair in a Tokyo storefront in the early 2000s, and decided to revive it.

Now SeaVees is back, embracing the nostalgia of its heritage with remakes of early styles like the 06/64 Legend Sneaker. All of its silhouettes are designed with comfort — and an explicit take on the California ethos — in mind. Right now, many of its styles are on sale at Huckberry for as much as 54 percent off. — Tanner Bowden

Weber-Deal-Gear-Patrol-Lead-Full

Weber Spirit II
Save $100>Weber’s Spirit II grills are the 2018 update of its popular Spirit grill of yesteryear. It’s a full-size, do-everything gas grill designed intentionally for the newer grill cook — a streamlined grease drip, low-maintenance enameled iron grates, instant ignition and a very generous 10-year warranty program. It also brings 529 square inches of grill space, which is good for roughly 25 burgers (approximately 20 square inches per burger) and uses solid materials (cast aluminum instead of all stainless steel, for example).

Usually retailing for just under $600, today the grill is $100 off on Amazon. — Will Price
