Anyone answer my question please. I am new to this type of watch. I have been given one for my birthday; I understand the operation but I don’t get why the second hand does not move all of the time. Only for 1 hour after pressing the top button. May sound silly I know!
That is a chronograph hand and not a second hand. Its used to time things and some people refer it to as timer also. You can press the top button to pause the hand. After pausing, press the lower button and it will reset hand back to 12. Hope this helps.
Yeah I think it’s silly that it doesn’t serve as a second hand as well. I have several Timex’s that do as well as a couple that have a dedicated second hand as well. I do think AVI-8 does make one that the second hand serves as both I’ll try look it up for you
Love this one, a yellow faced watch would be nice, perhaps something to pay homage to the RAF SAR Helicopters
I can't decide between this watch or the Hawker Hurricane. Both very nice.
I love bronze one the most!
Beautiful Av8 have upped Thier game for sure.
I have the channel blue one, it’s become my favourite watch

The hawker hurricane chronograph has a separate second hand
Is it actual bronze case or just plated?
Not a real bronze case, just plated
