AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual TimevsPhoibos Eagle Ray GMT

Owners widely appreciate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual Time for its value, with one owner finding it a good deal at $134 CAD, citing its thin bezel, pusher style, dial colors, and white stitching on the leather strap. The watch features curved lugs and a solid case, though some owners note it wears large at 44mm. One owner flags that the chronograph buttons can stick, and another points out a small, hard-to-read date window. The movement is identified as a Chinese DG-3809-3D automatic that hacks, or a Seiko quartz (Epson) movement, with one reviewer expressing disappointment in the undecorated automatic movement. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual Time well for its aesthetic appeal and value, with the dial design and strap details being frequently praised.

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Eagle Ray GMT for its perfect dial, attractive case finishing, and the Miyota 9015 movement, with the vintage gold coloring and second hand hitting all indices noted as highlights. One owner called it a "love at first sight" purchase. However, some owners question the crystal's reflectivity and readability, and the 47mm lug-to-lug measurement may be tight on smaller wrists, with the included leather strap also noted as potentially unsuitable. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Eagle Ray GMT highly for its attractive finishing and movement at the price.
