Hawker Hurricane AV-4011-0B Watch

The Watch
Every collection from Avi-8 honors a legendary British aircraft that shaped history. This timepiece pays special tribute to the very first single-engine fighter of the Royal Air Force - a plane that distinguished itself during the Battle of Britain, celebrated for its toughness and performance. Resolutely masculine with a vintage edge, it features a 42mm-diameter, 11mm-thick stainless steel case treated with gunmetal PVD coating. This deep grey finish reinforces the military character of the watch. The case is topped by a mineral crystal set within a subtle bezel. A crown sits at 3 o'clock, flanked by two chronograph pushers. The screw-down caseback completes the robust construction.

The Dial
A luminous white dial gives this watch its distinctive character, designed to mirror a real aircraft cockpit dashboard. Every detail has been carefully considered to give the wearer a piece of history. Around the dial, an angled raised bezel features a black tachymeter scale. Inside, a clean minute track is followed by large black Arabic numerals in a typeface borrowed straight from aircraft instrumentation - legible enough for pilots to read at a glance. Moving toward the center, three sub-dials sit at 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. The first is a small-seconds counter with concentric grooved finishing. The second is a 60-minute counter echoing the Royal Air Force roundel. The third is a 1/10th-second counter sharing the same finish as the first. Hours and minutes are marked by two white sword-shaped hands with black cores, while a third, finer, fully black hand handles the chronograph function. A date window at 3 o'clock completes the dial.

The Movement
Powering this bold timepiece is a Japanese-made Miyota quartz movement. It delivers chronograph functions, a 60-minute counter, 1/10th-second precision, date, hours, and minutes.

The Strap
This stunning Hurricane comes fitted with a 22mm grey leather strap with matching tone-on-tone stitching. It fastens with a gunmetal pin buckle in PVD-treated steel.

Water Resistance
This model offers 5 atmospheres of water resistance - 50m. It's built to turn heads while holding its own against the elements. You can wear it in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it on the edge of the sink to keep it looking its best for longer. Swimming and diving are not recommended - doing so risks damaging the watch and incurring repair costs.
