AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic ChronographvsCitizen Promaster Diver

Owners find the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic Chronograph visually appealing with its thin bezel, pusher style, and dial colors, noting it stands out from common black dial watches. Some owners report the chronograph buttons can stick a little, and the 44mm case wears large with a small, hard-to-read date window. One owner was disappointed to find a Chinese DG-3809-3D movement, which is undecorated, and noted AVI-8 is often seen as a "fashion" brand and overpriced at MSRP for a quartz watch, though discounted prices made it a good deal. On balance, owners consider the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic Chronograph a keeper for its visual appeal and solid case construction when purchased at a discounted price.

The Citizen Promaster Diver is praised for its handsome dial made from recycled materials and its accurate Ecodrive movement, running +1 second in 7 days. Owners note potential difficulty maintaining charge in a large collection and minor alignment issues with the bezel and chapter ring. One owner reports an automatic movement with +20/-40 seconds a day accuracy. On balance, owners appreciate the Citizen Promaster Diver for its distinctive dial and reliable Ecodrive movement.
