Our take on the Stührling Airman 4078 Quartz Pilot Watch

The Stührling Airman 4078 is a quartz pilot-style wristwatch with a 43mm case and an analog dial. It leans on the classic aviator look — large numerals, a busy dial and a leather or steel strap depending on the variant — at a budget price. At $109 at JCPenney as of November 3, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range, where it has typically sold between roughly $100 and $150.

Questions and answers

Is the Stührling Airman 4078 worth it?
At $109 at JCPenney as of November 3, 2026, yes, if you want an aviator look on a budget. It is a quartz fashion watch, not a mechanical pilot watch, so judge it on style and price rather than craftsmanship.
