AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Kent Automatic

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Kent Automatic for its unique style and good quality for its price point, with specific appreciation for its thin bezel, pusher style, dial colors, and WW2 references. Some owners note the 43.5mm size may be large for smaller wrists, and a few report that the chronograph buttons can stick. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Kent Automatic highly for its distinctive design and value at its price point.

Farer PILOT SERIES II

Owners widely praise the Farer PILOT SERIES II for its purposeful design, remarkable legibility, and trademark use of color, with many finding its 39mm case and 45mm lug-to-lug dimensions to be perfect proportions. Some owners, however, find the watch pricey and note its use of grade 2 titanium. Opinions are split on the minute numerals on the black dial, with some finding them less appealing. One owner noted a misaligned Roman I index on a specific model. On balance, owners rate the Farer PILOT SERIES II highly for its unique dial designs and excellent wearability.
