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.

AVI-8 is honoured to partner with Laguna’s Spitfire Legacy (LSL) to create a Spitfire chronograph timepiece limited to just 450 pieces commemorating the famous 303 Squadron and support the LSL’s work to restore Spitfire P8331 to airworthy condition. This iconic aircraft steeped in history was last flown by Wing Commander Piotr Laguna, who led the 303 Squadron to become the most successful squadron during the Battle of Britain.

This timepiece aims to create a lasting recognition of the incredible contributions of the 18,000 Polish pilots and ground crew who courageously and skilfully protected Britain throughout WWII but was overlooked for the 1946 Victory March through London.

Simply stunning.

Beautiful watch, lovely big dial, very easy to read the time, nice comfortable weight on the wrist. The red, white & blue colour scheme and the way it’s designed looks epic.

Great watch but...

The watch was delivered within the expected time and it looked exactly how it is depicted in the images. However, after a couple wears there is very noticeable creesing in the strap. In addition, I was unaware that I would have to pay import fees and duties upon delivery.

I have not had chance to get my hands on the watch yet as sent to UK due to import tax here in Finland. I will get the watch in Feb when family visit. From WhatsApp call to family the watch does look very nice
