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.

There's perhaps no tale more befitting of the continuation of AVI-8's Spitfire story than that of Eric "Sawn Off" Lock, a true WWII hero who was the highest scoring British-born RAF pilot in the Battle of Britain, and the inspiration behind our Spitfire Lock Chronograph.

DRAWN FROM THE SPITFIRE'S CURVED PROFILE

A 42mm case is inspired by the Spitfire's famous curved silhouette, with custom flowing pushers designed to complement this feature.

Taking further inspiration from the Spitfire's body, micro detailing on the case sides is designed to recreate the panels on the aircraft.

A CLEAN AND LEGIBLE TWIN-REGISTER DIAL

Fusing timeless and modern watchmaking aesthetics, the Lock features a clean, symmetrical, and highly legible twin-register dial layout drawn from the details within the iconic Spitfire's cockpit gauges.

Dial looks great. Leather strap was low quality and cracked immediately. I replaced with a matte black stainless steel bracelet for $20, which greatly improved the look of this watch. Lume on arms and numbers fades in 20 min after charging with directly light from a flashlight. Painting with a coat of superluma will greatly improve this watch.

Stunning watch

The watch is stunning and with beautiful details as all of the AVI-8 watches I tried, the only bit missing on this one is that it's not glow in the dark, which is very helpful for pilots working in the night, apart from that it's superb

Very average, smaller than I realised against the online photos. The visibility of the hands to read the time is very poor. There is no lume again I guess that's my fault for not realising but on a watch this expensive I find that weird. Even after 4 wears the strap isn't in great shape, isn't very comfortable. As the watch is quite small ( for me) but still quite thick it ends up moving around on my wrist and sits at an awkward angle on my wrist bone.

Very hard to read dial.

The watch’s look is great but the color/luminous choice for the hands, numbers and markers make the watch hard to read unless you are looking at it directly. Also reading the watch at night is impossible, next to no illumination and what little there is does not last long.
