AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane AutomaticvsFurlan Marri Cornes De Vache

Owners praise the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Automatic for its aviation-themed design, thin bezel, and colorful subdials, with one owner finding it a good value at $134 CAD. However, some owners note that the chronograph pushers can stick, and the 44mm size wears large with a difficult-to-read date window. One owner was disappointed to find a Chinese DG-3809-3D movement instead of an expected Japanese automatic, though still considers it a keeper for $141. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Automatic well for its value and aviation-inspired aesthetics, despite some noted functional and sizing caveats.

The Furlan Marri Cornes de Vache Blue Sector is lauded for its vintage-inspired design, featuring distinctive cow horn lugs and a compact 37.5mm case. Reviewers highlight its complex case finishing with sharp transitions and polished surfaces, a subtly grained azure blue dial with a printed sector and applied Breguet numerals, and the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement. This movement provides a 68-hour power reserve, with accuracy noted as within ±7 seconds per day. The watch is priced at CHF 1,250 excl. taxes or A$2,600. On balance, reviewers praise the Furlan Marri Cornes de Vache Blue Sector for its elegant, wearable vintage aesthetic and detailed finishing at its price point.
