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 Clowes Automatic

Owners report the chronograph buttons on the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic can stick, though it functions well as a daily wearer with a clean dial and good quality stitched leather band. The 44mm case features well-curved lugs, and a hacking seconds subdial is present, but the date window is small and difficult to read. The watch uses an undecorated Chinese DG-3809-3D movement, which some owners found disappointing compared to expectations of a Miyota. Overall, owners consider the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Clowes Automatic a good value keeper for its pilot design and $141 price point.

Bremont MBII

The Bremont MBII is praised for its striking, high-tech pilot's watch aesthetic, reassuring heft, and quality feel, featuring an anti-shock system and customizable barrel. Owners note its condition can be excellent with minor hairlines, and it is presented with all original boxes and papers. A drawback cited is its 38-hour power reserve compared to newer movements. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Bremont MBII affordable and a good representation of the brand.
