AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Kent Automatic Newton with White Dial #AV-4094-01

Led by Flight Commander John Kent and equipped with Hawker Hurricanes, the 303 Squadron claimed the most victories during the Battle of Britain. To honour their unparalleled achievements, AVI-8 has launched the Kent Automatic with design details drawn from the iconic Hawker Hurricane and 303 Squadron.

A remarkable timepiece that commemorates the valiant efforts of Flight Commander John Kent and the 303 Squadron during the Battle of Britain. Piloting the formidable Hawker Hurricanes, this squadron achieved the highest number of victories in one of history's most pivotal aerial conflicts. In recognition of their extraordinary contributions, AVI-8 introduces the Kent Automatic, a watch that beautifully encapsulates the spirit and valor of these heroes and their aircraft.

Powered by a reliable Myota Automatic movement featuring three hands and a date function, this watch ensures precise timekeeping alongside practical daily utility. Encased in durable stainless steel, the watch measures 43mm in diameter and 12.5mm in thickness, offering a robust yet refined presence on the wrist. The lug to lug width of 50mm enhances its comfortable fit, making it suitable for various wrist sizes.

The dial is protected by a sapphire lens, renowned for its scratch resistance and clarity, enhanced with an anti-reflective coating to ensure optimal legibility under all lighting conditions. The applied indexes add a touch of elegance to the watch, ensuring time is easily readable at a glance.

Complementing the sturdy case is a genuine leather strap, 22mm in width, that not only adds to the watch's aesthetic appeal but also provides comfort and durability.

With a water resistance rating of 5 atm, the watch is capable of handling splashes and brief immersions in water, making it suitable for everyday wear. Weighing in at 120g, it offers a substantial feel on the wrist without being overly heavy, striking an ideal balance between presence and comfort.

The AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane Kent Automatic Series is more than just a timekeeper; it's a piece of history. Its design and features reflect the courage, innovation, and determination of the 303 Squadron, making it a meaningful and sophisticated addition to any watch collection. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a watch collector, or someone who appreciates the stories of bravery and excellence, this watch stands as a tribute to the incredible achievements of those who fought in the skies above Britain.
