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 Typhoon Baldwin Automatic

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 Hawker Typhoon Baldwin Automatic for its 3D instrument-panel aesthetic and premium feel, noting satin-brushed case sides, a polished bezel, and a knurled crown. However, the lume is considered a gimmick with limited strength and longevity, and some find the 42mm, over 13mm thick watch chunky on a 7" wrist. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 Hawker Typhoon Baldwin Automatic highly for its distinctive dial design and build quality at the price point.

Vaer Dirty Dozen (40mm)

The Vaer Dirty Dozen (40mm) is praised for its nice case design and thin profile, making it wear flat. On balance, owners rate the Vaer Dirty Dozen (40mm) highly for its comfortable wearability due to its thin case.
