AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Classic ChronographvsPagani Design PD-1711

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.

Owners praise the Pagani Design PD-1711 for its sapphire crystal, Seiko mecha-quartz movement, comfortable strap with half-links, and milled clasp, noting the dial is legible. One owner finds the lack of a running second hand disorienting. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1711 highly for its value and specific features like the sapphire crystal and comfortable strap.
