AVI-8 Pegasus Dunsfold turns a Harrier engine into a running-seconds display

The Hawker Harrier Pegasus Dunsfold makes its mechanical reference explicit: a turbine-inspired running-seconds display occupies the centre of the dial. It evokes the Pegasus engine associated with the Harrier’s vertical-flight capability, while a 24-hour indicator and instrument-like markings extend the aviation theme. Turquoise-toned detailing adds contrast to the dark display.

Reference AV-4162-01 belongs to a 500-piece anniversary edition. AVI-8 specifies a Japanese automatic movement, a 44mm steel case, antireflective sapphire glass and a black leather strap. At 15.9mm thick and 52mm from lug to lug, it is a deliberately substantial watch, with a 5 ATM water-resistance rating. The turbine adds continuous animation to a display whose surrounding details reinforce the same engine-inspired theme.
