Description

The Avi-8 Hawker Hurricane McKellar Dual Time Ash Grey Watch AV-4101-09 is a remarkable timepiece that commemorates the valor and exceptional accomplishments of Squadron Leader Archie McKellar of the 605 Squadron during the Battle of Britain. Celebrated for his extraordinary achievement of becoming an “Ace in a Day” by downing five enemy aircraft in a single day with his Hawker Hurricane, McKellar's heroism and the iconic aircraft serve as the inspiration for this meticulously crafted watch.

Equipped with a Japanese Quartz movement that features a dual time function, this watch is designed for the modern aviator and watch enthusiast alike, offering the convenience of tracking two time zones simultaneously. The stainless steel case, measuring 44.0 mm in diameter and 14.0 mm in thickness, provides a robust and masculine presence on the wrist, while maintaining a comfortable fit thanks to its 50.0 mm lug-to-lug measurement.

The dial, presented in a sophisticated ash grey, echoes the utilitarian yet elegant design of the Hawker Hurricane's cockpit instruments. Applied indices with Japanese luminous material ensure outstanding visibility in all lighting conditions, a nod to the critical importance of legibility during flight operations.

Covering the dial is a durable mineral lens, chosen for its ability to resist everyday wear and tear, ensuring the watch remains a faithful companion for years to come. The pull-out crown allows for easy adjustment of the time and dual time features, blending functionality with the watch's overall aesthetic seamlessly.

The watch is paired with a 22mm grey genuine leather strap, enhancing its wearability and comfort. Additionally, it comes with an extra blue nylon strap, offering versatility and the opportunity to customize the watch's look to suit different occasions or preferences.

With a water resistance rating of 5 ATM, this timepiece is capable of withstanding splashes and brief immersions in water, making it suitable for everyday wear but not for swimming or diving. Weighing in at 80 grams, it strikes an optimal balance between durability and comfort.

The Avi-8 Hawker Hurricane McKellar Dual Time Ash Grey Watch AV-4101-09 is not just a tool for timekeeping; it's a tribute to a historical figure and his aircraft, blending historical significance with modern functionality. It comes with a 2-year international warranty, ensuring reliability and satisfaction. This watch is a limited edition offering, making it a valuable addition to any collection, especially for those who appreciate military history, aviation, and the timeless appeal of meticulously designed timepieces.
