Not my thing
By Dave Kowalski, Chicago ยท
I'll be upfront. I don't like open-heart dials. A little hole in the dial so you can see the balance wheel flapping around, it always looks to me like the watch is unfinished. Like somebody forgot to put the drywall up.
That said, the Jazzmaster Open Heart is a well-built watch. 40 by 11.4 mm, blue dial, steel bracelet, H-10 automatic with 80 hours, open caseback (so you get the movement on both sides, I guess). Sapphire, 50 m.
$845 to $995. If you love the look, Hamilton does it better than most at this money. If you're like me, the Thinline is the same family without the peephole.
