84% of key specs known. Missing: hardening, bracelet links, clasp micro-adjust.

Commemorative GMT for the 50 years of the AV-8 Harrier in US service ("This watch is not affiliated with the AVI-8 watch brand"). The dial's 23 radial striations mirror the fan blades of the Rolls-Royce F402 engine, and the Harrier's canopy on the dial is lumed. Limited edition with each caseback individually serial-numbered; the edition size is not stated. Seiko NH34 GMT, date at 6 in the photos. Size: the description and spec table say 40.5mm (a page note says 40mm, correcting a 42mm figure from a video); 14mm thick; lug to lug is 46mm in the spec table and 47mm in the description (spec table recorded). 20mm drilled lugs, screw-down crown, 200m, etched solid screw-down caseback, stainless steel case (grade not stated). Precision 120-click bidirectional bezel with a lumed sapphire 24-hour insert (grey and black in the photos). Domed sapphire with inner AR (spec table). Super-LumiNova C3 on the hands, markers, bezel and dial canopy. Weight 175g (not stated what was weighed). Bracelet with female end links, solid links and solid end links, sized with screws, and a milled scissor push-button flip-lock deployant clasp with six micro-adjust positions (tool or tool-less not stated); a brown leather aviator strap is included. The product photos are of the prototype; the brand says delivered units have a quick-release strap and slightly larger "Since 1971" dial text. The store page says "This item is no longer available" (sold out on 2026-10-21); the price is the last listed one. No independent review found.
