AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz ChronographvsSpinnaker Hass Automatic

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz Chronograph for its vintage-inspired, cockpit instrument aesthetic and the functional meca-quartz chronograph movement. The blue dial is described as stunning with depth, and the aviation-style numerals and brushed steel case contribute to its look. One owner notes the non-sapphire crystal scratches easily, and another criticizes the highly reflective crystal and poor lume. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz Chronograph highly for its collectible aviation tribute design and satisfying meca-quartz chronograph function.

The Spinnaker Hass Automatic is a 43mm watch featuring an NH35 movement and sapphire crystal, with owners highlighting its beautiful dial. Some find Spinnaker watches, including this model, to be on the thicker side, with one owner describing the Hass X MCS Blue Fade variant as comically large and chunky. The Spinnaker Hass Automatic was offered at $445 USD as part of a special collection with customized elements, and a limited edition of 200 pieces was also available for $195 shipped. On balance, owners and reviewers note the attractive dial as a key positive, though some express reservations about the watch's thickness.
