Why AVI-8?

At AVI-8 we pride ourselves in shedding light on important events and people throughout aviation history. Through a collection of exclusive collaborations, we've been fortunate enough to bring attention to the remarkable feats of aviators whilst giving back to communities whose stories we draw inspiration from.

AVI-8 x RBL

AVI-8 was incredibly proud to announce the partnership with the Royal British Legion for their centenary year in May 2021. Each timepiece sold helped raise funds for this extraordinary charity and support the crucial work they do for those who serve and have served in the British Armed Forces and their families.

AVI-8 x Jet Art Aviation

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Daily Mail Transatlantic Air Race in 1969 won by Tom Lecky-Thompson in Harrier XV741, AVI-8 worked closely with renowned aviation restoration company Jet Art Aviation to produce a series of limited edition timepieces.

AVI-8 x Help for Heroes

AVI-8 was honoured to announce the release of a line of limited edition timepieces in partnership with British charity Help for Heroes. Funds raised were used to provide lifetime support to those wounded in the service of their country. Every course and activity offered from them aims to empower veterans to look beyond illness and injury, regain their purpose, reach their potential and have a positive impact on society.

Love the design. The quality of this watch is definitely not worth $400 but the presentation is unique!

Exactly as promised

I saved the watch for Christmas, although it mean waiting for two months. It was well worth it. As soon as you open the box you know that this is special. I'm not sure many private owners will find a use for high display stands, but it is certainly impressive. I had a bit of a hard time finding the manual, but succeeded before getting frustrated, so ti was all right. The watch itself is very nicely done. At first it seemed the loom might not be bright enough, and certainly it is not if you just turn off the lights at night, but once the eye accommodates to the darkness the hands as well as the dial marks stand out quite nicely. In fact, the face was legible after a full night's sleep, which is the most anyone can reasonably need. I swapped the strap for the bracelet first thing, because I like those more. I must say the rubber/leather strap goes well with the watch quite well color-wise, but it is quite stiff. Well, it's been less than a day now, so I hope it adjusts with use. The watch has a lot of nice detail. I particularly like the color accents around the face and on the crown. All in all I'm very happy with my purchase.
