What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

AVI-8 Flyboy Spirit of Tuskegee Chronograph

Owners praise the AVI-8 Flyboy Spirit of Tuskegee Chronograph's aviation-inspired design and build quality, considering it superb value for its sub-$500 price. The 43mm stainless steel watch features a matte-black dial with aviation-style numerals and Swiss Super-LumiNova for legibility, powered by a Japanese Miyota automatic movement and protected by a sapphire crystal, with 5 ATM water resistance. Overall, owners rate the AVI-8 Flyboy Spirit of Tuskegee Chronograph highly for its compelling design and exceptional value at its price point.

AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Retrograde Chronograph

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Retrograde Chronograph's airplane-inspired dial design and the comfortable, soft leather strap with a no-break-in clasp. However, one owner notes that the case, crown, and glass crystal fitment left much to be desired, feeling cheap, and the mineral glass is prone to scratching. The watch is considered overpriced for its features, though appealing when found on sale. On balance, owners find the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Retrograde Chronograph appealing for its unique dial and comfortable strap, despite concerns about case finishing and the mineral crystal.
