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 Automatic

Owners praise the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Automatic for its aviation-themed design, thin bezel, and colorful subdials, with one owner finding it a good value at $134 CAD. However, some owners note that the chronograph pushers can stick, and the 44mm size wears large with a difficult-to-read date window. One owner was disappointed to find a Chinese DG-3809-3D movement instead of an expected Japanese automatic, though still considers it a keeper for $141. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Automatic well for its value and aviation-inspired aesthetics, despite some noted functional and sizing caveats.

Spinnaker Bradner GMT

The Spinnaker Bradner GMT is praised for its awesome lume and comfortable wearability, with one owner noting the rubber strap is very comfortable and the beads of rice bracelet fits well on smaller wrists. Some find its 15mm thickness and bold colorway may not appeal to everyone, and one owner views it as more of a casual GMT with tool-watch styling than a diver. Overall, owners rate the Spinnaker Bradner GMT highly for its value and comfortable wearability.
