AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic ChronographvsSpinnaker Dumas GMT

Owners find the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic Chronograph visually appealing with its thin bezel, pusher style, and dial colors, noting it stands out from common black dial watches. Some owners report the chronograph buttons can stick a little, and the 44mm case wears large with a small, hard-to-read date window. One owner was disappointed to find a Chinese DG-3809-3D movement, which is undecorated, and noted AVI-8 is often seen as a "fashion" brand and overpriced at MSRP for a quartz watch, though discounted prices made it a good deal. On balance, owners consider the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic Chronograph a keeper for its visual appeal and solid case construction when purchased at a discounted price.

Owners praise the Spinnaker Dumas GMT's satisfying lume, including on the crown, and good finishing, with one owner finding it wears well on a 17cm wrist. The watch features a Seiko NH34A GMT movement and a blue gradient dial. Reviewers note its 44mm diameter and 209g weight on the bracelet make it unsuitable for smaller wrists.
