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 Hurricane Clowes Automatic

Owners report the chronograph buttons on the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic can stick, though it functions well as a daily wearer with a clean dial and good quality stitched leather band. The 44mm case features well-curved lugs, and a hacking seconds subdial is present, but the date window is small and difficult to read. The watch uses an undecorated Chinese DG-3809-3D movement, which some owners found disappointing compared to expectations of a Miyota. Overall, owners consider the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic a good value keeper for its pilot design and $141 price point.

Lorier Hyperion SII

Owners widely praise the Lorier Hyperion SII for its vintage aesthetic, glossy black dial, and tasteful text. One owner notes the Miyota 9075 movement and calls it the best GMT under $800. Criticisms include a small GMT hand that is difficult to spot, and one user found the winding action not smooth with significant crown resistance. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Hyperion SII highly for its vintage aesthetic and value.
