AVI-8 Hawker HarriervsCincinnati Watch Company Concourse Champagne

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 Hawker Harrier for its handsome, utilitarian design and unique day display, with one owner noting the comfortable wearability of the 45mm case despite its size. The AVI-8 Hawker Harrier Pegasus Concept features a handless design with rotating wheels for time display, which is legible once accustomed to. Some owners report solid build quality and great lume, while others feel the watch can become cheap-feeling over time. The AVI-8 Hawker Harrier II AV-4065-04 was considered worth its purchase price of $400 AUD. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Harrier well for its distinctive design and value at its price point.

The Cincinnati Watch Company Concourse Champagne is widely praised for its Art Deco dial, described as "pure art deco with chevron-type design" and evoking a "Mad Men-style vibe," alongside its impressive build quality and craftsmanship for the price. Owners and reviewers highlight the smooth winding action of the Sellita SW300-1a movement, which is noted as being tuned to COSC specifications. However, the 38mm case size and the transition from case to bracelet are considered potentially divisive design choices by some. The dial itself elicits strong reactions, with one owner calling it "amazing" and "unique," while another found it visually unappealing. The watch measures 38mm wide, 44mm lug to lug, and 10.5mm thick, with a non-screw down crown and 100m water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Cincinnati Watch Company Concourse Champagne highly for its distinctive Art Deco aesthetic and excellent value.
