Hawker Hunter Atlas Dual Time Chronograph Watch

Aviation watches are normally amongst the most impactful from an aesthetic perspective and this is particularly true of AVI-8 who have some of the most striking timepieces on the market. Their latest release, the Hawker Hunter Atlas Dual Time Chronograph Watch, is available in a number of different versions with prices varying from $290 to $310 and it is unquestionably one of our favourite releases from the watch brand to date.

The Hawker Hunter Atlas Dual Time Chronograph Watch (from $290) is an incredible re-invention of the modern aviation-inspired timepiece and effortlessly fuses quality, history, and an immeasurably eye-catching design drawn from the Hawker Hunter aircraft. It boasts a robust 12-sided stainless steel case that echoes the Hawker Hunter’s flight instruments and is crowned by a 12-hour scale bezel, enabling a third-time zone to be displayed.

Kitted out with the inner mechanics of a split time read-out Japanese chronograph movement, the Hawker Hunter Atlas Dual Time Chronograph from AVI-8 also allows the wearer multiple time zone readouts, providing a timepiece complete with the spirit of a pioneering aircraft of the jet age with the engineered construction and functionality to boot.

Drawn straight from the Hawker Hunter’s cockpit, the multi-layered dial of the Atlas Dual Time Chronograph Watch takes the wearer on a tour through the aircraft’s instrument panel with cleverly designed and implemented subdial frames and hands. Swiss lume applied baton indexes finish off the dial that has been crafted with readability and functionality in mind.
