Avi-8 Mens 45mm Hawker Harrier Matador Chronograph Watch

The AVI-8 brand inspiration and design excellence originates from the collaboration between pilots and engineers who served in air forces around the world. Founded in 2012, every collection is an explicit homage to the planes, people, and history of military aviation. Each timepiece brings to life the detail and narrative of the inspiration to delight and engage the wearer.

To pay tribute to the variants of the famed Hawker Harrier "Jump Jet", AVI-8 introduced the latest version of its Harrier chronograph family inspired by the planes that flew for the Spanish Navy, nicknamed the "Matador". In full timing operation, the Matador comes alive with a whirring of hands and wheels that create a dynamic experience not unlike that of a Harrier in full flight.

The Hawker Harrier Matador Chronograph features a 45mm stainless steel case, 22mm genuine leather strap, mineral lens with anti-reflective coating, and water resistance of 50m. It is a watch of style, substance, and mechanical marvel, with a Japanese Quartz Chronograph movement, including 1/20 Second and Big Date functionality.

Your AVI-8 watch is warranted against any manufacturing defect for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of purchase. After some previous light charging, the index and hands will have visibility in low-light conditions. If it is "Automatic", it is powered only by the normal movement of the wearer's wrist and does not need a battery. More detailed instructions can be found on the brand's website.

The meca-quartz movement is a Japanese-made 'hybrid' engine that blends quartz precision and accuracy with an automatic movement's character, charm, and sweep hand mechanics. AVI-8 takes immense pride in shedding light on events and remarkable individuals in aviation history, celebrating the extraordinary achievements of aviators while making a positive impact on the communities who inspire us.
