The quick answer.
Ferro & Company AGL 2 Automatic 24H Blue is a 42 mm pilot watch at $526.50 after code RITUAL (before code $585). We recommend it for a buyer who wants a blue aviation-style automatic with an easy-to-read 24-hour display, date and standard 22 mm strap width.
Why it belongs on the shortlist.
The price buys a coherent aviation design: a 42 mm brushed-steel case, blue dial with large numerals, double-domed sapphire, Italian leather and the Miyota 8217 with a decorated rotor. Miyota rates the movement at approximately 42 hours. We think the AGL 2 earns attention through its dial layout and finishing choices rather than a rare or independently adjustable complication.
The dial puts its aviation character front and center.
Ferro combines large numerals, a blue background, a 24-hour subdial and a curved date window. The result is easy to distinguish from a conventional three-hand blue watch. We would choose this version when the cockpit-inspired layout and color are the point.
The subdial tracks a 24-hour scale, not a second timezone.
Ferro describes a 24-hour subdial, while Miyota lists a 24-hour display as a function of the 8217. The movement documentation does not describe an independent GMT setting, so do not buy the AGL 2 expecting to keep a second location’s time. Miyota rates the 8217 at approximately 42 hours of running time.
Check the height as carefully as the 42 mm case.
The published lug-to-lug is 48 mm and the lugs are 22 mm wide. Ferro’s detailed specifications say 16 mm thick including the crystal, while another product graphic says 15 mm. Either figure describes a substantial case; check sleeve clearance and the span against a watch you already like.

Before you choose
Ferro’s detailed specification list gives 16 mm thickness including the crystal, while a lower product infographic says 15 mm; expect a tall profile and compare the watch with your cuffs. The leather strap is a poor choice for swimming even though the brand lists 100 m water resistance.
Who it suits.
A buyer who wants a blue aviation-style automatic with an easy-to-read 24-hour display, date and standard 22 mm strap width.
When to choose something else.
Choose a true GMT if you need an independently set second time zone, or a thinner watch if you want an easy fit under a close cuff.
Warranty, returns and ownership.
Ferro lists free worldwide shipping for watches, a 30-day return period with return shipping paid by the customer, and a two-year warranty from delivery. Check the current exclusions and request the required return authorization before sending an item back.
Closest alternatives.
- Seiko 5 Sports GMT (SSK003) · $495 listed (2026-10-16): A close-price automatic if you actually need a second time zone: Seiko lists its 4R34 GMT movement, 100 m water resistance and a 42.5 mm case at $495. The steel bracelet and GMT hand serve a different purpose from Ferro’s leather pilot layout.
- Timex Marlin Automatic 40mm Leather Strap Watch (TW2V44600) · $299 listed (2026-10-16): A lower-cost, different-purpose automatic at $299 with a 40 mm case, leather strap and roughly 40-hour reserve. Choose it for a simpler retro everyday watch and spend less; it does not reproduce the blue pilot dial or 24-hour display.
Think beyond the diameter.
