Who should buy which.

The AGL 2 Automatic 24H Blue: A buyer who wants a blue aviation-style automatic with an easy-to-read 24-hour display, date and standard 22 mm strap width. 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.

The AGL 2 Chronograph Green: Someone drawn to vintage aviation chronographs who prefers easy-set quartz operation and a green dial with character. Choose an automatic chronograph if mechanical movement is central to the purchase, or a slimmer everyday quartz watch if you want less case height under a cuff.

Before you order.

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.

At 14 mm including the crystal, this is not a slim dress chronograph, and leather is a seasonal choice for hot or wet use. Ferro’s own listing is the deciding source for case thickness and details; the AGL 2 is right for the look and simple operation, while a thinner or bracelet model may suit daily office wear better.
