AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Carey Dual TimevsHamilton Jazzmaster Chrono Quartz

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.

Owners widely praise the Hamilton Jazzmaster Chrono Quartz for its excellent value, with some enthusiasts appreciating its unique styling. However, the open-heart design is a point of contention; some find it cluttered and prone to collecting dirt, while others report difficulty reading the time with it, particularly as eyesight declines. One owner notes the movement is not exceptional. On balance, owners consider the Hamilton Jazzmaster Chrono Quartz a superb deal, with its value being the primary draw.
