AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Avon Chronograph

The AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Avon Chronograph features a 45mm case that wears comfortably, and owners praise its soft leather strap and clasp. Some find the design unique with rotating discs for time, though legibility can be a challenge. One owner noted lacking fitment on the case, crown, and crystal, feeling cheap, and cautioned that the mineral glass crystal will scratch easily. The quartz movement is considered acceptable by some. Overall, owners find the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Avon Chronograph to be a comfortable and unique pilot-style watch, with its strap and clasp being particular highlights.

Geckota Chronotimer Chronograph

Owners widely praise the Geckota Chronotimer Chronograph for its appealing designs, with some receiving frequent compliments. The pushers are described as clicky, and the chronograph seconds hand sweeps, exceeding expectations for a quartz movement. One owner notes the movements are solid workhorses and prices are reasonable if the finish matches website appearance. However, the watch wears large, and some owners have hesitated due to its size, with one user finding the red dial a weird shade. Overall, owners rate the Geckota Chronotimer Chronograph highly for its appealing designs and satisfying chronograph function at a reasonable price.
