What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Avon Chronograph

Owners widely report the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter's unique handless design with rotating discs is not easily legible but can be learned, and the 45mm case wears comfortably. One owner praises the leather strap and clasp as incredibly soft, while another flags the case, crown, and crystal fitment as lacking and feeling cheap, noting the mineral glass crystal will scratch easily. The Miyota automatic movement is considered trustworthy, though the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter is sometimes seen as having a design similar to other brands. On balance, owners appreciate the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter for its unique time-telling mechanism and comfortable wearability, despite some concerns about case finishing and crystal durability.

RZE Urbanist

The RZE Urbanist is widely praised as a fantastic, lightweight, "grab and go" everyday watch. Owners highlight its durable titanium case with scratch-resistant coatings and sapphire crystal. The solar movement is noted for keeping good time and is guaranteed for life. Production models feature a push-in crown, a change from earlier screw-down versions. Overall, owners rate the RZE Urbanist highly for its durable, lightweight titanium construction and reliable solar movement.

From video reviewers

The RZE Urbanist features a Japanese movement for accurate timekeeping and reliable performance. The watch's lume brightness is a shared weakness, with both reviewers noting it could be improved. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering it a 'great value' for the price, while the other highlights its solar power feature as a significant strength.
