AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual TimevsCitizen PCAT

Owners widely appreciate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual Time for its value, with one owner finding it a good deal at $134 CAD, citing its thin bezel, pusher style, dial colors, and white stitching on the leather strap. The watch features curved lugs and a solid case, though some owners note it wears large at 44mm. One owner flags that the chronograph buttons can stick, and another points out a small, hard-to-read date window. The movement is identified as a Chinese DG-3809-3D automatic that hacks, or a Seiko quartz (Epson) movement, with one reviewer expressing disappointment in the undecorated automatic movement. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual Time well for its aesthetic appeal and value, with the dial design and strap details being frequently praised.

The Citizen PCAT is praised for its polished and brushed stainless steel case, blue bezel insert, and tachymeter scale. Reviewers note its navy dial with polished silver elements and sub-dials that change functions by mode, along with radio-controlled timekeeping, a perpetual calendar, and 200 meters of water resistance. The redesigned bezel and sapphire crystal covering the tachymeter scale are considered attractive features. One owner notes the E650 movement supports five atomic time zones, fewer than some other models. Lug width is uncertain, with suggestions of 22mm or 24mm. Older PCAT models require changing the mode to "CHR" to operate the chronograph. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Citizen PCAT for its robust feature set and attractive, functional design.
