Field watch advice (please)
Was the one thing lacking from my watch box so I bought a lovely Hamilton Khaki manual from SC a year or so back.
However, my 14 year old had grown out of his old Swatch and as a very keen CCF cadet took a huge shine to it (and he's normally not interested in "things") so I gifted it to him. Which is nice, except I no longer have a field watch.
Looking for an inexpensive vintage replacement, up to about £300 max. Manual, auto or quartz. Not keen on any of the various G10 options, real or otherwise, so after some forum hive mind wisdom on what's out there to hunt that I may not know about, please.

There’s a PRS29A on eBay right now. It’s sat at £400 which stretches the budget of £300 max-ish.
Failing that, The timex Mk1 mechanical is available straight from timex, about £160. Not sure if that fits the bill.
Edit: sorry, missed the true vintage aspect, thought you were looking for something along the Hamilton reissue
