AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane McKellar Dual Time Peanuts Snoopy Flying Ace Limited Edition - Preorder

The AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane McKellar Dual Time Peanuts Snoopy Flying Ace Limited Edition will begin shipping in early May 2026.

The AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane McKellar Dual Time Peanuts Snoopy Flying Ace Limited Edition (AV-4151) is what happens when two of aviation's most enduring icons share the same dial. The McKellar platform — already one of AVI-8's most purposeful dual-time designs — gets reimagined through the lens of Charles M. Schulz's beloved Flying Ace, with Snoopy's unmistakable presence woven into every detail from dial to caseback to strap. Coming in five distinct colorways and at 530 pieces per variant.

The 43.5mm stainless steel case carries the McKellar's signature aviation-instrument aesthetic — a multi-layered dial with a bold dual-time display, big date window, and luminous indices that are as readable at a glance as any cockpit instrument worth its name. The retrograde dual-time hand sweeps across a dedicated arc before snapping back to its origin — a complication that looks purposeful rather than decorative. Each variant is fitted with a genuine leather strap matched to its colorway. The caseback features a bespoke Peanuts design, and the whole package ships in collector-grade presentation packaging worthy of a limited run.

Power comes from the Miyota GP01 — a Japanese quartz caliber equipped with dual-time retrograde function and a large date display. The retrograde complication means the second time zone hand travels along an arc and jumps back at the end of its sweep rather than rotating continuously, giving the watch a quality that plain dual-time quartz movements don't deliver. It's an unusual feature at this price point, and it's the detail that separates the AV-4151 from the rest of the Flying Ace lineup.
